Glove recomendation

[Sean B]

I've been shooting a Damascus glove for 23 years, and for some reason, my fingers are getting a little sore.  I need to feel the string, but I need a little thicker leather.  maybe im just getting soft!!  Any recommendations?

American Leathers makes a quality glove. Have the Big Shot and went to the Crossover and like it much better.

Dura-glove or Bearpaw Speed glove give a little more protection.  I also have an American Leathers and it gives a lot more protection but I don't have much string feel with it.

I've been using a DuraGlove for about four years and I'm real pleased with the combination of string feel and padding.  My heaviest bow is 55@28 and I'm drawing it a little over 27"

Since I started using the Dura-Glove, I haven't looked for anything else. I'm very satisfied.

Sean -Are you shooting longbow or recurve? Also I noticed that most of the responses are for gloves that cover most of your hand. I guess that's OK for those of you that live up north in states that huddle up together just to stay warm in the winter.        However, down here in Texas it tends to get get pretty warm in the winter and downright hot in the summer. So, if you do any shooting at all, you find yourself with a sweaty glove and a wet glove creates all sorts of release issues.

I shoot longbows and therefore really like the traditional finger stall gloves with a thin leather lace or strap that connects the stall with a wrist strap. The stall can be easily slipped off the end of the fingers and allowed to air dry between shots. It also makes it easy to write down scores during a 3D Shoot without wearing gloves over your writing fingers.

My favorite for years has been the E.W. Bateman Traditional Glove made with cordovan leather. It takes a little breaking in, but I think it is the best glove on the market, bar none.

I was sold on my first duraglove but just ordered another.Quality control was terible on the new one and that is all I will say about that.Kip

Thanks guys.

Ric, I'm a recurve shooter, with my heaviest bow being 65# at my draw.  My main bow is 55#, and my bows are 58 and 60"s.  My soreness only atarted about a month or two ago.  On the bottom side of my ring finger and the bottom side of my index finger.  I guess it could be finger pich that I'm just now noticing. I've tried tabs, but just don't like them.  It seems like the stitching in the seem is right where the sorness is.  Thanks

Hi Sean,
I just read your response and am amazed that anyone knows where Morris is. I would like to meet you so if you are up to Milford or Cooperstown please let me know before hand and maybe we could meet somewhere.
