No-glove question

[KentuckyHeadhunter]

Newish to trad bow. I saw that 3 Rivers has a product called no-glove or something like that. It attaches to your string so you don't need a glove or tab. Do they work? Or is it a 7.99 gimick?

They DO work, my wife shoots her bow like that. However, I don’t get the same feel for the string and I’m not as accurate shooting with them. I much prefer a glove or tab.

If it's those little finger savers you slip on the string. They work for me, and are on every bow i have.

i like to make my own tabs... thrift stores = leather purses, & on senior day
you get a discount.

My kid's little bear archery bow has them and I always thought they'd slip in a strange way... I'm like @Gordief i make my own tabs out of old leather laying around. ugly, but functional

Thanks for the answers. I'll stick with the tab. My concern would be that the finger-savers would "roll" upon release causing the arrow to break left or right.

They are good for bow fishing, but I don’t care for them just shooting or hunting.

They will roll if you’re shooting a thin string. I don’t use them on my bows.
