Those do look good. I shoot with tabs with my recurve and although I like the idea of the glove, I just can't shoot nearly as accurate with a glove as with the tabs. I somehow tend to get a bad release and throw too many arrows to the right. Problem is that I lose tabs all the time so I have to constantly buy them. Never thought of trying to make em though. Cool looking work there, man. I gotta try that.
 
I never liked tabs starting out. But my gloves would always stretch at the finger tips as they broke in. I just didn't like that, so I made myself shoot a tab till I liked it. I never lost one but I've forgot them here and there so I started making them so I would have sprares everywhere. In the boat, in the truck, couple in my back pack, arrow case, plus I snap the paracord loop under my arrow on my quiver so one is always with my bow.
 
I hope that I am not putting a big jinx on myself, but I have never lost a tab.
I still have a Screaming Eagle tab that I purchased about 22 years ago. Cordovan leather simply rocks.
I also have a Cavalier Elite tab with a cordovan leather face that I bought about 8 years ago and it is still going strong.
I have shot 3 under for about the last 20 years or so, and I am beginning to dabble with string walking. Your tabs look great and may work very well in this application.

...now I have another project to take on; thanks!

Your tabs look great, thanks for posting.
