American Leathers Full Shot.   Takes a bit of shooting to get used to it, but it's great.

Been shooting American Leathers Big Shot for about 4 years now and really like it. Never owned a Dura glove so can't pass judgement on it. I was cleaning out some stuff a while back and came across an old Bear glove I didn't even know I still had, probably from the 70's. I'm using it some too and love it.

I didn't realize the American Leathers had nylon on the fingers.  How do you guys think the nylon compares to just leather in terms of smooth release and finger protection?

Bigshot and Stick-Tite  both are good .  Big shot might have a slight edge.

I've shooting a Saunders tab for a long time. Decided to try a Dura Glove now that I live beyond the SE Alaska rain.

The first 2-dozen shots felt a bit odd to me. After that, I settled in to the feel of it and my shooting is as good or better than with the tab. Don't know about the other gloves mentioned, but I like my Dura Glove!

Duraglove is ok until it gets wet. Used a Neet glove before that, but they develop grooves and wear out. Damascus is good if you like thin. I've given up on gloves, I do better with a Cavalier Elite tab
