My wife is returning to shooting with air rifle after a 20 year break, she had disposed of her old kit bar her rifle, so is in the process of getting sorted with modern spec equipment, she has a new made to measure jacket on order and new boots, but needs a new glove.
She has tried everything we can borrow which is not a lot as she has very small hands and is currently using a bodge up with a Tucker mitt (ok we've just dated ourselves!). She shoots with the rifle supported on the rolled fist, supported on the platform between the knuckes and the first finger joints and wants as much padding for maximum height that she can get.
The problem we have is there is no local target kit supplier where she can see and try the different makes of glove so we are only going by pictures, and will have to mail order, can any one give a view as to what glove with in the rules has the stiffest and thickest padding on the back (knuckle and fingers).
Best regards

Spot On Rutty!
Thanks Gerhard, the roads here have grass down the middle! we are trying to avoid travelling! We have done the National and International thing, Pam was GB Ladies squad 30 years ago, and now at "Tom Watson" age just wants to shoot for fun, but would perhaps like to put some pressure on the club shooters!
I was about to leave to drive to the range at Norwich but its looking a bit too Xmasy here at he moment, White out!
Have a good Xmas and New Year,
Best regards
Robin and Pam
