 Bowfishing Finger Tabs/Savers
Do you guys use finger savers when bowfishing? It doesn't seem like they're necessary but I was wondering if they make shooting easier.

 Re: Bowfishing Finger Tabs/Savers
I like mine, I prefer the finger slicks over the ams tabs though.

 Re: Bowfishing Finger Tabs/Savers
I loge the tabs. The slicks I guest it is that have the round washer looking thing. You can't pinch the arrow as good. Pinching the arrow with rookies stops from dry fires

 Re: Bowfishing Finger Tabs/Savers
Not hard but need a bow press to take string off. I like mine though

 Re: Bowfishing Finger Tabs/Savers
I have the No Glove on all my fishing bows. Wouldn't want to shoot without them.

 Re: Bowfishing Finger Tabs/Savers
Any of the no gloves, finger savers, etc... except the ones with the disks like DDM said. If you're shooting a compound I suggest the actual No-Glove brand, they last longer. If you can change it easily yourself, I personally like the (non contoured) Finger Savers from Bowfishing Extreme. They're smaller in diameter and allow cleaner releases but you have to replace them about every 500 shots. We've recently started playing with different types of surgical tubing but nothing to brag about yet.

 Re: Bowfishing Finger Tabs/Savers
I have the No Gloves and the Arrow pinches my top finger bad. It seems like the ones with the Flat Disk might save my finger.
