What about the NO-Glove? Anybody ever try one. I was thinking of trying one on my Great Plains. I like the tab or glove one or the other is fine with me!

If that is the one that stays on the string, I'd stay away from it. Too much weight on the string IMO.

No-glove is great for bowfishing where shots are short andyou don't want to get your good glove or tab all wet and slimed up. It'll work for hunting or general shooting toobut, like Bob said, it's heavy and it does rob your bow of some performance. Only you can decide whether you would like it enough to make the tradeoff.

ArthurP, what performance of the bow would it affect? Speed, noise, KE ? I don't shoot much past 20 yards! Thanks

Black Widow makes a nice cordovan 3 under tab.

Speed. And KE to some extent as a result of the slower speed. I've never chrono'd a bow with and without the no-grip but I would estimateit'd cost an average of 10 fps. More on lighter draw bows - 50 lbs and less than on heavier bows over 60 lbs.

Thanks Arthur P, My Great Plains is 55@28I still think I might try the no-glove just to see how I like it. thanks for the info!!!

a while ago i read a post about shooting with a loop&Release. if it turns out that a tab or glove keep bothering your fingersyou might want to try a release in stead. (better then selling your bow)

I'd rather deal with the pain and have bloody fingers than put a string loop and use a release on my Longbow!

Bob I got the gloves in the Post, I'm really liking the BW Glove, very durable with some good protection!!!!!

I roll better with tabs
