Shooting Tab Choice?

What tab from Big Jim's Bow Company

Well 2 months later and this over priced tab finally came in. It’s the first tab I ever tried. Wow do tabs feels different. They have such a smooth slip off the fingers. I don’t not remember this black thing being on the picture I saw. Whoever mounted it mounted it side ways perpendicular to the pointer and index finger so it hurts to hold the string. I guess the purpose is to keep the fingers separated but I think I’ll be taking it off. Whoever said “rip off” you were probably right. I think it will be nice once I take this hard plastic piece off.75CA4774-9EB4-4AA8-ACDE-AE01A07D7958.jpegD302D514-D1E9-4C2E-AA45-5725F31BC09D.jpeg

None of the OPs choices for me.
I bought a beautiful piece of cordovan on Etsy. Enough to make several tabs. I just cut it and shoot it. Cordovan lasts for years. Doesn't need palm plates, stitching, rivets, or any add ons. Just cut a hole and slip it over my finger.

Turns out the bow length I shoot and with my draw length shooting tab just ain’t the best choice for me. Will make my own in the future.

Tradlab has some good data on bow length. Cody suggests, along with many other accomplished archers, to shoot as long of a bow as you can stand. I’ll be moving to a 64” bow because the string angle on a 60” with my draw length just creates too much pinch and induces torque. Food for thought.
