shooting glove
« on: March 14, 2013, 12:28:00 AM »
Ok so I am wanting to get a new shooting glove.  I have it narrowed down the American Leathers Big Shot Elk Hide and the Dura-Glove on 3rivers archery.com.  I know there is quit a bit of a price difference but I would like to hear all your opinions.  Thanks

Don't pull the trigger until you check out the Black Widow Sticktite Glove.

American leathers for me or American leathers. I prefer the crossover, but they both sell about evenly.

I like the Dura-Glove. I can't think of how I would improve it... for me. I never tried the Big Shot though. Maybe you can buy both and let us know. ;^)

I have never used the big shot, but I love my dura glove, It is showing no signs of wear after a year of shooting, the bear paw version of the dura glove is really nice. same materials just a little more money,

I have had both and like the DuraGlove better.  I can feel the string better. Wears like iron...I don't know if it will ever wear out.

American leathers...super clean off the string.  I found out during any arrow tuning session just how much cleaner the release was then my old damascus glove.

Love the Big Shot gloves but have really taken a liking to the Black Glove from Kustom King as well lately!

I liked my Black Gloves as well but I went through two in one year the finger stalls on both blew out.  I was even told they improved the fabric of the new generation, same story with unravelling at the seams though.

Had my Bigshot for almost 5 years and it still has plenty of life left. Without a doubt the most durable and comfortable glove I have used.

Just started shooting with a Big Shot Elk and I am impressed already, that being said if you like a bit more feel on the string this may not be for you.
