Shooting glove? With a double rifle?
I haven't ever been able to make sense of the 'shooting glove' phenomenon. Just doesn't make sense to me at all. On that, the shooter also seems to have a pretty strange way of holding onto his rifle. That combination of 'not really holding onto the wrist of the rifle' plus 'resting the thumb of the shooting hand against the left side of the toplever' plus a shooting glove sounds like a recipe for disaster any way I look at it. Is the glove there to protect his thumb from the toplever?
--Tinker
He took up the shooting glove because of the long (reach) for him, to reach the front trigger, and as a result, he was getting rapped pretty hard on the middle finger by the trigger guard when the rifle was fireing.
Note: edited to read "middle finger", rather than trigger finger.
