Topic: Ggakji bohodae

Ive been looking for a glove for a while, started asking around.

Apperantly freddie archery has them but theyre not posted on the website. $25 usd.

These are the gloves you wear to protect your draw hand from string friction.

Alternatively, bluelake supplied me with this http://blog.daum.net/sungesan/8557021 if you wanted to make your own.

Similar to that, but that is a thumb release device all on its own (they work well).

Do many people use a Ggakji bohodae?  Is that something I, as a newbie, should look into?

I would say, that depends on you.
I build myself a leather protection for the thumb from a cheap leather working clove.
It looks very similar to the thumb-part of said Ggakji bohodae, and I do quite well with it.

Having tried several solid thumb rings, I never came to like them.
I just need the specific pressure feeling, and feedback.

Interesting, for now I'll keep working with a solid thumb ring but I have noticed that it's a little slippery on the string.  I'm too new at this to be changing until I get the basics down.
