I've tried various different tabs & gloves, and without fail find that I cannot shoot as consistently with a tab, compared to a glove. I shot all last year with a Neet Cordovan glove & after a good break-in period, found it to be excellent. A nice slick release & enough feel for me. I've recently converted to a Big Shot & it's just freakin' awesome! Very comfortable, lovely slick cordura tips that allow a very smooth release, but with far better string feel than with cordovan.
I keep trying my tabs & I've only found one bow out of my 16 that I can shoot better with the tab (???) & that's an old 69" Hill style American Longbow. All my shorter longbows (AFBs to you) shoot waaaay to the right with a tab, for some odd reason.
I'm not going to give up on the tab, because I can honestly see the technical advantage, but for now I'm sticking to my Big Shot!
