I once tried to use one of those things. I realized quickly it was an answer to a question never asked. Ugly and the top "wings" catch your eye, to the detriment of your shooting. You'll soon see for yourself, Lloyd, and you'll throw it in a drawer with other shooting paraphernalia. And yes, a thin leather glove serves much better to keep your fingers off of the hot barrels. You won't shoot enough for the glove to harm the barrel finish.

Gotta say, I agree with 100% of this. I don't see why anyone would prefer them, but to each, his own. In warm weather, I don't use a glove either except in very rare circumstances such as shooting rounds of trap alone or using black powder while shooting trap with just a few shooters. My hand does not really like being out that far on the barrel anyway.
