Glove for bow hand?
Super quick question....

I have seen some people use gloves in the bow hand (sometimes full gloves and sometimes a funny index finger glove)

What are they called?
If I pop shooting glove in Google all I get are gloves for the draw hand?


I just shot a few dozen and I have been scratched to buggery (fletchings are all well glued down at the point - just think I have very soft skin there) I know it would eventually harden up but for now I want a glove.

Alternatively raise your nocking point slightly. If your nocking point and bow hand are in the correct position you won't feel a thing.
I don't wear a glove on the bow hand because I know that if I get my hand in the wrong place, I'll feel it and only mess up one arrow!

I've got one from Richard Head and it does the job perfectly when I'm shooting my Mongolian.
