Abstract
An ergonomic finger tab includes a tab plate with a contoured upper surface to receive and support the fingers of an archer during execution of an archer shot. The upper surface contains a plurality of spaced parallel contours extending from the forward edge of the tab plate to a position short of the rear edge of the tab plate. A palm extender is adjustably connected with the tab plate adjacent to its rear edge. The palm extender preferably includes a pivotal palm plate which can be pivoted to provide a reference point for the archer when positioning the shooting hand on the finger tab.
