Yes Im full of questions LOL. Ok tab users? I shoot 3 under using a glove. From what I read a tab gives a better release. My concern isby anchoring middle finger in the corner of my mouth I may have a hard time feeling igf I have my middle finger in the corner of my mouth.Just an assumption but from what Ive seen the tab is cut just short enough to let the finger tips especially the middle fingertip stick slightly out past the tab. Thanks

Tabs should be trimmed to fit. I touch the first knuckle of my incdex finger to the corner of my mouth; middle of my thumb is firmly against my jawbone. Your hand size and facial geometry will dictate what's right for you.

It will probably be easier to feel if anything. Bateman is a good one to start with

That's exactly why I went to a tab, to feel my middle finger in the corner of my mouth. The glove was alright but it was harder to consistently repeat because of the bigger surface. Now that I shoot 3 under it's makes split seem uncomfortable. That's just me, to each there own.

It's no easier. or harder to feel in my experience. It's just a matter of what works for you. I prefer a tab because I can make my own, the way I want them, but that's just me. Try one and see what you think for yourself.

I can make you one to try if you like.

I would be happy to try one of yours. My hands are large I guess. I always order large in gloves.I dont think i would want a split tab since I shoot 3 under. I sure appreciate it.
