I am considering getting one and can't quite decide.
Thanks
1. If you shoot standing (air or 3p, etc) it allows you to stay in position on a stand and reload left handed.
2. In summer it allows a bit more air reducing sweaty glove syndrome, but contra it with cold fingers in the winter.
3. Its a choice of preference, they cost the same.
More importantly, depending on your discipline, standing or prone there is also the material and stiffness to consider, , we use open types with the soft grip material from Anschutz and Kurt Thune for standing (air) but open finger hard backs from Kurt Thune for prone where there is pressure from the sling and stop, these reduce the pain in the hand.
Good Shooting
Robin
