Q: I measured my hand bellow my knuckles and it came out to about 8.25" ... Which should i get small or medium and how well does these gloves stretch? Asked on 5/7/2013 by Boudoux from Brazil Know the answer? Answer this question 4 answers A: I would go with a medium. My hand measured 10.25", so I ordered the XL. Answered on 5/8/2013 by Anonymous A: I would say probably a large. They do not stretch much Nick Answered on 5/8/2013 by Anonymous A: I would go with the medium, they do stretch or more less form to your hand. Answered on 5/7/2013 by Dave from 3Rivers Archery A: I would recommend the medium gloves. The small ones are really kid sizes. They don't stretch much at all though.

Q: I am right between the medium and small sizing for this glove. Any suggestion as to whether to go small and hope it stretches? For use with a 45# Barebow. Asked on 12/18/2012 by FatBoyWithBow from Vancouver, Canada Know the answer? Answer this question 8 answers A: Wait! - I think I should add to my previous answer that I'm female and my ring size is 5, so I have pretty slim fingers in addition to the fact that I'm between small and medium sizes on the shooting gloves. If FatBoyWithBow has larger fingers, he might want to go with a medium glove despite the length of his hand because the leather on the fingertips of the Wyandotte gloves fits rather tightly at first and I don't think it will stretch too much... I'm assuming the doe skin on the Damascus glove would fit similarly. Marie Answered on 12/20/2012 by Anonymous A: I am between small and medium sizes in these gloves, too. I ordered a small size Damascus glove because I was hoping it would stretch but when I tried it on it seemed too tight to hope that it would stretch enough to feel comfortable at any point. I ended up returning it and going with a Wyandotte open-ended glove, size small, because those gloves have elastic on the back. That's the one I still use. I think the elastic helped the small size stretch enough to feel comfortable right away but it's well made enough that the elastic hasn't over-stretched despite the fact that I use it a couple times a week for target practice. Hope that helps. Happy holidays! Marie Answered on 12/20/2012 by Anonymous A: I would go with the med. Answered on 12/19/2012 by Dave from 3Rivers Archery A: I recommend getting the small. The glove will naturally stretch over time; or you can use a leather conditioner to get it to stretch sooner. Answered on 12/19/2012 by Justin from 3Rivers Archery A: Same thing happened to me when I bought my glove. I'd go with the medium. The wrist strap on the small digs in to the base of my palm. Answered on 12/19/2012 by Anonymous A: I have fairly big hands and found that the size I ordered stretched adequately. Answered on 12/19/2012 by rar from Michigan A: No worries Mate a Damascus glove will stretch with time. If you like put the glove on and dab a little bit of metholated spirits on the tight spots with a sponge and wear thwe glove until it drys. I use an undersize glove myself as I like the custom fit works for me........Bobcat Answered on 12/19/2012 by Anonymous A: A very good question. Personally I've found that the glove doesn't stretch at all. After putting the glove on but before shooting it's perfectly sized, but after shooting it seems a little tight in a finger or two. You should probably go for the larger size :) Hope this helps Answered on 12/18/2012 by Anonymous
Q: I tried out a medium and my hands are a special case. My fingers fit the medium tips perfectly, my hand and fingers are so long that the velcro would actually be right below the V that your thumb and index finger make. If I'm to get a large or x-large for that matter, would I still fit the finger slots decently, and would the velcro reach my wrist? Am I forever doomed to have a weird hand with no glove to match it? Thanks for your time. Asked on 9/7/2012 by Don from Santa Ana, CA Know the answer? Answer this question 2 answers A: hello. I am not sure if your message was meant for a user question or to directly to 3rivers but i got your email. I am not the store but just someone who bought the glove. sorry i cant be much of a help on this one. I bought the large over the internet so i did not have another glove there to compare it to. my hands are on the smaller side and the velcro goes right to my wrist. seems like you have the total opposite problem that i have. Maybe you can cut the back part where the back of you hand is and have someone sew in a piece of leather or elastic in to extend the length. good luck Answered on 9/7/2012 by Anonymous A: The finger slots on the large and extra larger are going to be larger than the medium, more than likely they will not fit you as well. I recommend looking at getting a tab. You can get the large or extra large to compensate for the length of your fingers and then you can always trim it to fit the width.

Q: I am currently shooting a 60# bow at 28 inches. Should I get a thicker glove or will this be fine? Once I get a glove I will be shooting 1-2 hours per day. Thank You for your time... Asked on 8/17/2012 by John from Phoenix, Arizona Know the answer? Answer this question 9 answers A: A good question. This glove is obviously quite thin, and pulling a 36# bow @ 28' for about 6 hours in a day is fine, though a 60# bow would be different entirely. The glove should be fine though I would save some money in case it isn't. Sorry I can't give a more definite answer as I have no experience with any bows over 50#, or 36# with finger releasing. Answered on 8/17/2012 by Anonymous A: This glove is not likely to be thick enough for 60lbs. For that draw weight, I would recommend the a glove with kevlar or rubber reinforced fingertips. The superglove might be a good one to try. Answered on 8/17/2012 by Anonymous A: John; I also shoot a 60# bow for about an hour a day. I use the super glove and am VERY satisfied with the protection it gives me. Before I bought this glove I had sore, numb fingers constantly. I bought the Damascus glove for my son who shoots a 40# bow. The Damascus glove is very thin, gives a great feel for the string but is, in my opinion, much too light for the heavier bow. The super glove is the way to go. Mike Answered on 8/17/2012 by Anonymous A: I like the damascus glove a lot, personally. I think if you are going to be doing that much shooting a day, it might be beneficial to go with the thicker glove. However I sent the thicker glove back because i wasn't able to feel the string. It might break in well with that much use. Hope this helps, Randy Answered on 8/17/2012 by Anonymous A: I dont shoot heavier than 53#. i use the thin glove and i am fine with that.. Hope that helps Sent from my iPhone Answered on 8/17/2012 by Anonymous A: This glove works best for a light bow used by a casual shooter. I shoot a 50# bow at 28 inches and found this glove to be far too thin. I found that a thicker glove is much better for me. The extra padding does not interfere with my shooting and helps me shoot for longer periods. Answered on 8/17/2012 by Anonymous A: Great glove. Comfy and good fit. You will have sore fingers initially but you will get used to it. Sent from my iPad Answered on 8/18/2012 by WAL from Lae, PAPUA NEW GUINEA A: I'm shooting my 50# HOYT BUFFALO with this new glove, feels good, since I'm not shooting that often like you, I suggest you to choose a thicker one. Answered on 8/19/2012 by Anonymous A: The thickness of the glove will be more personal preference than anything else. Normally shooting a heavier bow will lead to using a thicker glove. If you are more interested in the style of glove than the thinness of this model take a look at the Berlin Deerskin glove and the Dura Glove. They are both made in the same style but a little bit thicker. Answered on 8/20/2012 by Justin from 3Rivers Archery
Q: Do you have woman glove in Damascus Glove Shooting Glove Asked on 6/25/2012 by Guylaine Turgeon from Montreal Know the answer? Answer this question 1 answer A: We do not carry any woman sizes with the gloves. I recommend getting a size smaller than you would normally wear. Answered on 6/25/2012 by Justin from 3Rivers Archery
Q: shooting a 50# recurve is the damascus ok for this? Asked on 5/1/2012 by Anonymous Know the answer? Answer this question 2 answers A: The Damascus is a little thin, but you should not have a problem using it with a 50# bow. Answered on 5/2/2012 by Justin from 3Rivers Archery A: I currently shoot a 60# recurve with Damascus gloves, no problem, you may feel it a little thin at the start but this will disappear within a few practice sessions.

Q: I am trying to purchase equipment for my son as a gift. I know nothing about archery, but my brother has given me a list of what to order from you. How do you measure a hand to determine the size needed for a shooting glove. My son lives 14 hours away so I will have to ask him to send me his measurements. Thank you for your help. Clueless Mother Asked on 3/31/2012 by Anonymous from Vinemont, AL Know the answer? Answer this question 2 answers A: You will need to measure around the hand just below your knuckles, but still above you thumb. That is the measurement that will apply to the chart. Answered on 4/2/2012 by Justin from 3Rivers Archery A: This is a good choice. Try the sizing chart to get a general idea. (http://www.3riversarchery.com/3riverssizingcharts.asp#shootinggloves/tabs) Although, if he is rather tall, as I am, I would consider ordering a size larger than recommended as my hands tend to be longer than average. My guess is he would fit well in a small/medium. Hope it helps! Answered on 4/24/2012 by KyoTe from ATL
Q: Hi. Measurement around my knuckles is 9", and 8" from finger tip to wrist break? Should I order a Medium size? Is the glove exchange-able if it is not the correct fit? Thanks Asked on 12/1/2011 by Archer Eric from Sylmar, CA Know the answer? Answer this question 1 answer A: Yes, I recommend that you order the medium. Yes, the glove is exchangeable. If the glove does not fit to your liking, you can fill out the return form included with your order and send the glove back. We can swap out the glove or give you a refund as long as the glove is in like new condition. Answered on 12/2/2011 by Justin from 3Rivers Archery

Answer this question 1 answer Q: Cool; follow up question, I shoot 45# how well would this glove hold up to that? It's not going to wear thru the leather or anything like that? Asked on 5/19/2011 by ArcherThom Know the answer? Answer this question 4 answers A: The glove is thin. That is why we do not recommend it for heavier poundages. It does not offer that much protection.
