I use a Super Glove and love them. I have several.

It takes a bit to break them in but once they are done they are really nice I think.

American Leathers Big Shot, It's the best glove that I have found out there.

I think Ironrhino's got one he'll let you have for cheap. Some kinda moleskin or mouseskin thingy.

Nother vote for AL's big shot.  I actually like the full shot better, I like leather on my hands for when I take a tumble.

The nocking point, one of the sponsors, had a glove designed about 2 years ago. I've been shooting one that long. There is still no wear. I think it is cordovan. There are no seams in the contact area. I think it may be impossible to wear it out.
I don't know the name of it, but if you call mike Horton at Nocking Point he will know just what it is. he carries a lot of other gloves also.

I have to say the super glove from alska bowhunting is the best Iswitched from damascus to that and love no wear at all on it yet

I bought one of the new Grizzly "Dura-gloves" from 3 rivers. It has Cordura Nylon over leather. Great glove! I intend to buy another before they quit making them. $20

Try 3 Rivers Trad Barta - similar to the Big shot but not quite as heavy..  closer to the feel of the damascus.

Have been waiting a long time to get my American Leathers full shot.  Tried one out and liked it so I ordered one.  have been waiting a couple weeks.  sure hope it shows up soon.  I dont have anything right now so I can't shoot too many arrows in a day before my fingers feel like they are going to fall off.

I don't like the super glove. I have been shooting with one for the past 6 months and it keeps developing ridges near the tips. This makes for a bad release, i have tried over and over to smooth them out i have heard you can but they keep coming back. I have been shooting a tab but i might try the big shot glove.

I love a glove, and always shot one even though I knew I was paying a little in the release.  The new Grizzly glove already mentioned has been awesome.  Very durable, good string feel, and a tab like release.  The nylon tips don't seem to crease either.

I know this is going to sound cheap of me, was in Sprall Mart the other night looking at stuff for some landscaping projects, tried on a pair of glove there, thinking about buying them and then trimming the little finger and thumb out and use that to shoot with.  Fit good and felt great.  Sorry had to throw that in.

Black Widow has a PDQ Super Glove which I really like. Available with single or double fingertips.
