    Tab or glove, that is the question

    Heyguys just wondering whether you guys prefer using a tab or a glove. I have a recurve and I am wondering which in your opinion offers less interference to you while aiming. thanks

    Having had a bit of experience with a traditional bow, I shot one for a year, I found with a glove in cold weather is a pain. A tab enables you to wear a winter glove and still get a smooth release. It's just a thought.

    Greybark, I thought about suggesting a mechanical release but the spirit of good form prevaled.

    Good one Walksalot . Hey NightOwl74 , I prefer a fingertab and in particular the "Saunders" one . I remove the center felt section to improve the string feel . Due to its unique slippery rubber composition it provides a consistant release under Dry , Snowy , and Wet conditions.
    I`m still chuckling Walksalot !!!!

    A glove for me.

    Mechanical release would shorten up the draw length too much.
