I am a little mystified as to the purpose of a glove in smallbore. There is no recoil to worry about. In 4-Position there is no rapid fire. But to a man at our club, all of the top 4-position shooters use a glove. It makes to me to insulate hand tremor from the forestock, but then why do some gloves come with rubberized palms? I figure there must be something to it if so many use a glove.
