OK, guys, Thanks for the input.  I ordered the Eichler tab and the Bateman calf hair tab (two of each).  They came in on Friday.  They are different, but both are nice.  I will like and use them both, but I think the bateman tab will eventually get the nod.

Gregg,

Glad you like the tabs. I hope you will post again when you have shot both of them more. I have the Bateman cordovan tab and have been looking at the Eichler. Some folks have said the Eichler runs smaller than normal. What do you think? See you soon.

Gregg, I bought 15 calf hair tabs the other day over at the Bear factory,,, they were on sale at a very nice price... They are their Satellite Archery brand, calf hair, plastic spacer(removable)..if you want a couple of them let me know and I'll get them to you some how? I was making my own but I ran out of the calf hair..

Gregg, another vote for the Eichler tab.  I've shot Neet hair tabs for a long time, which was my favorite until I started shooting the Fred Eichler.  I've tried several other tabs, but the Eichler is the best so far.  I ordered two and have them broke in already (didn't take long).

I too have fallen in love with the Eichler tab as well.  What is it about guys in this field named Fred?
