Hide & DrinkArchery Finger Tab, Protect Guard for Recurve Bows, Finger Protector, Shooting Practice Gear Sports & Outdoors, Full Grain Leather, Handmade

Long story short.... quickly and easily became the best finger tab I own! Beautiful leather and craftsmanship. Comfortable and minimal break in. Purchase and don't look back. You WON'T be disappointed!Update: After a few months and about 20k arrows later (100-200 arrows a day), this tab is still my favorite! Look at the photos, it hasn't even begun to show wear. Although I imagine I'll be using this for years to come, I bought another just in case Hell freezes over or I lose it. The only break in, care or treatment I've ever done to it, minus some minor initial trimming to fit, was to spray it with some Ballistol every now and then, and of course, shoot a butt-load of arrows! However, I did quickly replace the string on the finger loop with a piece of elastic shock cord for better feel and retention on my finger. The drawstring canvas pouch and leather key chain it comes with is also very classy, a real nice touch. It's all quality. As for how it affects shooting, I'll refer you to the photos. I've only been shooting instinctive archery for a few months, it was the reason I went tab shopping in the first place. In the last two days I've shot two "Robin Hoods" using this tab. I was shooting from 20yrds, with a vintage 50+ year old recurve. Now I'm not saying that this tab will MAKE you shoot this well, but it by no means will prevent you from greatness!I'll say it again; SHUT UP AND GIVE THEM YOUR MONEY!

I have both gloves and tabs. What I use depends on where I'm shooting and what the weather is like. If you're not interested in spending three digits on a high-tech tab and just want something more down-to-earth, this is a good option. The leather is a little stiff at first, but it does give you good finger protection. I'd rather have to spend some time breaking it in than to have it be too thin and hurt as a result. Breaking it in was fairly easy. Just do three or four dozen practice draws and it'll build a nice crease in the leather. The thickness of the leather means you do lose a little bit of feel for the string in exchange for better protection.Not gonna lie, I also really love the look of the leather they chose. It's a really rich brown and it wears in beautifully after just a couple trips to the range. I like that there aren't any gaudy logos that scream at you, just a nice subtle owl embossed into it. You also get a really, well-made pouch with it.Functionally, the only knock against it is that there is a bit of string drag when you let loose. So you're not getting Gold Medal accuracy out of this. To minimize that, you'd have to spend a few bucks more to get one with calf hair on the string side. But for the price, you're not likely going to find another tab with leather this nice.

A good product and I like the actual tab, my only product complaint would be the black nylon center string (on brown leather), It works but aesthetically it doesn't fit the rest of the leather tab and has needed constant adjusting and is either too loose or too tight; a leather string, something elastic and/or at least brown (which would blend in) would be better.I like that is made in Central America. It's a soft leather top layer (with a more firm leather under layer) that after a 100 - 150 arrows is breaking in nicely and still has a good feel of the string. Only time will tell if the soft top leather will last.I wish I could've found a 3 under tab, I did a lot of searching before adding to the cart but no luck. If I find one in the future I would buy it.

Replace finger cord with stretchy cord and a spring clamp thingy. Good to go. Leather smells great.

I generally shoot bare finger, so I don't have a vast experience with finger tabs. I started using this recently because I'm shooting much more than I ever have, +200 target arrows a week with my 50# recurve.I've used it 3 times now ~150 arrows. First day without wax, then I waxed it.Out of the package it worked fine. Every aspect of the tab got better once I applied bee's wax as per the care suggestions. Also, take the time to adjust the lanyard string that holds it to your hand, it makes a difference.The material feels rugged, and the cut is well formed. I have XL hands and I can make this tab work just fine.This is the only finger tab I've used so not a vast market comparison here. It was a inexpensive investment to save my fingers, and I'm satisfied with the product and value.It took a little fiddling with the string lanyard that holds it on your finger to make it fit well, waxing it down helped. I will probably replace that lanyard with an elastic to retain some tension on my finger. I don't know if that would be an improvement or not.It does it's job, doesn't interfere with my shots, and my fingers no longer get torn up after a 5 dozen shooting day.

Love this tab and use it daily with a #60 bear super kodiak, plenty of protection! Does require two modifications that make it perfect how ever for the price the time it takes to modify does not effect rating.Mod #1- throw away the string it comes with for your finger support and replace with an elastic para-cord “you may need to stretch holes on tab to make new cord fit, I use Allen keys and just step the size up until the cord fits in”Mod #2- I think the manufacturer does this on purpose. Being that there is two layers of leather; the bottom layer that makes direct contact with the string overlays the layer that your fingers rest on creating potential for a bad release. Simply hold your bow string as if you are about to take a shot and have someone trace the overhang with a marker. Trim off the excess and you have an amazing tab custom to your hand.Note: does not bother me how ever some may be use to an “anti pinch” between the top and middle finger. This tab does not have that, how ever that was the appeal for me as I feel that it just gets in the way.
