Shell Cordovan Split-Finger Archery Tab – Trim-to-Fit

Shatterproof Archery began with bowstrings offered by Kramer Ammons and grew with the help of his brother Kazden Ammons, who now owns the company. Based in Colorado Springs, Colorado, the business has an Etsy shop dating to 2017; its formal founding year has not been verified. The team aims to help more people enjoy archery through practical gear and education. Its published values emphasize simplicity, integrity, hospitality and perseverance. A small family business grew from bowstring orders and bow-building videos into a wider traditional archery range.

A shell cordovan contact face and adjustable finger cord provide a split-finger tab option. Select Right or Left and trim only after checking the fitted shape against your release hand.

Start with the way you hook the string. Three-under and split-finger tabs have different shapes, so choose the model that matches your technique before comparing leather types. Check whether a hand option refers to the drawing hand or a maker-specific convention. A tab should cover the intended finger contact area without forcing you to change your grip to accommodate its shape. When a size chart is incomplete, obtain measurements before buying instead of assuming a standard size will fit.

Try the untrimmed tab with your usual equipment under appropriate instruction. Mark any excess conservatively, check the position again, and only then consider trimming. Removing too much material cannot be undone. A finger loop or shock cord holds the tab in place; it should not need to be excessively tight to work. If you are changing from a glove or another leather type, allow time to evaluate the feel rather than expecting an immediate improvement in scores.

Leather feel is a personal choice. Shell cordovan and chrome-tanned leather are different materials, and neither product description establishes a guaranteed release speed, score increase or competition advantage. Choose the construction and adjustment style you can use consistently. A qualified archery instructor can help assess hand position and fit if you are unsure which style to choose.

Material names describe the identified construction. They do not by themselves establish component origin, a certification or compatibility with every bow or accessory.

Care and setup

Keep the leather clean and let it dry naturally after use. Follow the maker’s care guidance before applying a conditioner or waterproofing treatment, because products that change surface feel can also change how the tab contacts the string. Check stitching, leather layers and the finger attachment for wear. Do not continue with a damaged tab or use trimming to conceal a fit problem.

Product-specific checks
