Yeah... I tried using a tab, just felt counterintuitive.

I'm going to try the Damascus glove since it is the only one I could find locally to try on.

I either shoot tab or I use the No-Glove things that attach to the string. I like to have the option to quickly have dexterity in my right hand for pulling arrows from targets, using the rangefinder, calling.

A No-Glove is handy for bowfishing and for small children, but it really hinders bow performance.

I do too... that's why I wear a glove.

I use a tab for my recurve and a Damascus glove for my longbows. Actually, I'm trying to use a glove with the longbows. It's coming along but it still feels a bit weird

I prefer a tab. To each their own.

I prefer a tab and have used it for 20 years. My 4 year old son did something with my tab last week

I grabbed an old glove and did some shooting and I did ok...but my finger tips realized the different action that my fingers were not use to.

Either way. It what YOU feel good with. And how you roll off the string.
