Neoprene glove for finger shooters.
 
I just saw this elsewhere and had to share.
It's a shooting glove made for bowfishing, made out of neoprene so it holds up to water like my Mechanix Gloves do.

might work, but still think noglovs are the way to go.

I sure would use them. I have no-gloves on my recurve now and they pinch my fingers between them and the arrow. i'd give the neoprene-ones a try.

I normally have the nogluvs on my bowto reduce the pressure on my fingers,AND wear Mechanix Gloves too formessing withgar and overall easier handling of fish.

Even with that combo, I STILL ended up with a nice blister during a 24 hour Carpbusters tourney this year. Had to shoot the last 3 hours with it. Ouch.

When somebody tries these, remember to check back here and report on them. Thanks

Is your bow too short? Try a nock point below as well as above the arrow. It will give you a little more space. I use a short 50# recurve and don't get that pinch. Haven't gotten blisters in a couple years either, but going 2 to 3 times a week helps build callusses.

How many bows do you have that you need so many noglovs? They don't wear out - I'm using the same set for five years running. And I got to thinking about the string pinch - why would there be less pinch using gloves than with the noglovs?

I have a PSE Coyote. It's not short at all.It may be the way I hold it with the nogloves on it, but I get pinched between the noglove and the arrow. When I'm just using the glove, there's no noglove there to catch my finger against the arrow. Maybe if I move the bottom one down a little more.
