I tried this tab after using a shooting glove for quite awhile, and I have to say, I wish I had made the switch sooner! This tab is the closest I have found to using bare fingers, but without the nerve damage. There is nothing to go wrong with this piece of equipment, so you can rely on it to work.
The only real issue is, they don't tell you in inches what S_M_L_XL mean, so buying one is pretty much guesswork. I guessed XL might be good, and it is good but L would have probably been exactly right. My advice is to buy an XL, you can always cut it down but you can't make a small one larger. Don't let that one little gotcha scare you off, this is a good tab at a good price!

Good, but damaged

This tab is pretty decent, it's nice and thick so if you have a heavy bow it will be better. Only problem is which it arrived, one of the rings was halfway ripped. ...Read complete review

      I am a beginner archer. I like this style of tab better than others. It fits my hand great. Took a day or two of shooting to break it in. After that it was very confortable. No complaints.

      Service and delivery comments:

      One of the finger holes arrived ripped almost all the way through, I don't expect this to last very long before it rips completely.

      Comments about Medieval Leather Tab:

      I purchased this tab to be used with an English warbow I recently acquired. So far, this tab is the only thing I've found that is able to prevent nerve damage to my fingers from the heavy draw weight of the warbow. My soft leather archery glove sure didn't protect my fingers enough. It's a bonus that the tab is of medieval styling, to go along with my bow, but it's the thickness of the leather that is the real reason why I will continue to buy this product whenever my tab needs to be replaced.

      The only big negative aspect of this tab, in my opinion, is that it doesn't at all protect your fingers from nock pinching. That is something I'm willing to put up with for the protection it offers from the string, however, the problem was solved when I discovered I could fit this tab over my fingers while wearing my archery glove.

      If you want to have greater feel of the string this isn't the tab for you, but if you need protection from heavy draw weights this tab is worth checking out.

      Service and delivery comments:

      Delivery is prompt as always, and the product arrived unharmed.

        Comments about Medieval Leather Tab:

        Before buying this tab, I was using an old motorcycle glove I had laying around.

        I'm really glad I switched to this tab.
        It's thin enough to provide plenty of tactile feedback, while at the same time being thick enough to adequately protect my finger tips.

        I second the other reviews that state the guesswork in picking a size.
        I got the extra-large tab just to be safe, and only trimmed it a small amount for the perfect fit.

        With a lot of tabs, modification is necessary anyway, and this one is no different if you want the perfect fit.

        In general, if you have really large hands, get the extra large, and if you have smaller hands, get the Large and trim it (if this is for a younger archer, maybe get the medium and trim it).

        I'm very pleased with it, and intend on getting a couple more to keep around should I lose it or if I shoot enough to actually wear it out.

        Highly recommended for its simplicity, authenticity, comfort, and price.

              i just got a huntsman longbow and this tab in the mail. after the first time shooting i found a small blister on my finger, after the second day the tab was covered in blood... oddly enough it was the nock hitting my finger when i release... i dont know if its just bad form, because i never had that problem with my compound bow without a tab at all... it will protect your fingers from the string though... i would keep this thing as a backup for a good pair of gloves...
