    Do you have a favorite finger to wear a ring on?

    Archery and rings,
    In the "Asian draw" [very broad term] it actually uses a thumb ring to hold the string.
    The classic longbow draw was two fingers and a thumb with a leather tab or glove, to protect the hand so rings wouldn't obviously get in the way.

      That's interesting. However, with wearing a leather glove, wouldn't the rings worn on the index finger also get in the way?
