I love my dura glove from three rivers but be aware that the new ones are way smaller than older models. I have a medium older version and just got my son a new one for my son it was a medium and wouldn't even fit my little finger. I sent it back and they replaced it but I still got screwed out of the return shipping. The new large is same size as my medium.

Will the Big Shot Crossover accommodate a deep hook?

Kevin, I also shoot bows between 45 and 50 lbs and both the Big Shot and the Crossover work great.  

Ranger 3, I have no problem getting a deep hook and solid anchor with either American Leathers glove.

x3 on the Dura Glove.  I've got a couple of them, and can't seem to wear them out.

Dura Glove for me. I tried the American Leathers and just could not get it to feel good to me.

I can not recommend the Black Widow Stick Tite glove any higher. It is fantastic.

I really like my American Leathers Big shot glove my only complaint is I don't like velcro connections but that is easy to remedy as anyone who works with leather can put a snap on one.

If you want a really nice glove you can take a look at a guy named OLE BUFF.  He's a leathersmith that makes gloves and all kinds of bowhunting gear.

I have one of his gloves and it is really nice, just about covers my entire fingers.

Scratch that post.  Apparently he is no longer making gloves or at least his site is DOA...

Kevin, I've been using a Full Shot for several months, and like it a whole lot. I've posted a couple of times about the glove in the last few months - do a search for "full shot", and my forum name "slowbowjoe"; pretty good description of my experience with the glove.
PM me if you'd like to know more.

I love my Bearpaw Buffalo glove. But never tried a American Leathers glove. Looks pretty popular.

I guess it depends on your definition of deep hook. I  can get deep into my finger joints.  The stalls are long.  I don't gets a really good curly on my fingers so they point more back at me.  I have kind of short fingers and the gloves are just thick enough that I just can’t curly my fingers all the way with two layers of glove and string in there.  Not like I can with a thinner glove or a tab.  I use a large because of my finger diameter and palm size, but my finger length is more of a medium.  I bet people with longer fingers using the L and XL get a better hook than I do.

I am now using the AL Bigshot.  I like it better than any glove I have ever used.  I like the nylon tips.  They are slick and tough.  My only complaint is I wish the strap velcroed on top of the wrist instead of the 2 strap system that velcros below the wrist.  I have some bad nerve damage in my non glove hand and struggle to get it strapped.  Most of the time I do not have it secured very good.  I know AL promotes their strap system as it is designed to pull backwards and keep the finger stalls tight.  I don't thinks it matters as mine stays tight and typically I have it loosely strapped at best.  I think my next one I will see if the will do a custom single strap for me.
