Safety archery glove

An archery glove, comprising:

• a first material that is flexible disposed about a portion of a palm of the glove and a portion of a back of the glove;
• a second material that comprises a degree of rigidity forming a back cover, said back cover having at least four sides disposed about at least part of the portion of the back of the glove, adapted to extend over the metacarpal region, said back cover covering at least a purlicue area of the glove, wherein the second material is coupled to the first material about three sides of the back cover;
• and
• a third material that is flexible forming a front cover, said front cover disposed about the palm of the glove and a portion of the glove below a finger section of the glove, wherein said front cover is coupled to the first material about three sides of the front cover;
• wherein at least a portion of a fourth side of the front cover is not coupled to the first material or the second material.

An archery glove, comprising:

• a first material that is flexible disposed about a portion of a palm of the glove and a portion of a back of the glove, wherein the first material has first coefficient of friction;
• a second material that comprises a degree of rigidity disposed about at least part of the portion of the back of the glove, adapted to extend over the metacarpal region, covering at least first and second metacarpal areas of the glove, wherein the second material has a second coefficient of friction;
• a third material that is flexible disposed about the palm of the glove and a portion of the glove below a finger section of the glove, said third material having a third coefficient of friction, wherein the third coefficient of friction is less than each of the first and second coefficients of friction;
• wherein the second material forms a back cover having at least four sides disposed about the back of the glove, wherein the second material is coupled to the first material about three sides of the back cover and wherein the third material forms a front cover coupled to the first material about three sides of the front cover and at least a portion of a fourth side of the front cover is not coupled to the first material or the second material.
