         4 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein each of the at least one strap connection is separately located on the pinky sheath, the ring finger sheath, or the middle finger sheath. 
     
     
         5 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one strap further comprises a strap distal end, and it is the strap distal end that is part of the releasable connection with the at least one strap connection. 
     
     
         6 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the at least two strap attachments are non-releasable. 
     
     
         7 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the at least two strap attachments consist of three strap attachments, and one of each of the three strap attachments are located on the pinky sheath, the ring finger sheath, and the middle finger sheath. 
     
     
         8 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one strap extends across the pinky sheath, and the ring finger sheath. 
     
     
         9 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one strap extends along the pinky sheath and the ring finger sheath. 
     
     
         10 . The apparatus of  claim 9 , wherein the at least one strap connection extends along the pinky sheath or the ring finger sheath, so as to substantially correspond to intermediate phalanges of a user's pinky or ring finger. 
     
     
         11 . The apparatus of  claim 10 , wherein the at least two strap attachments are permanent attachments. 
     
     
         12 . An apparatus comprising:
 a glove comprising a pinky sheath and a ring finger sheath;   at least one strap;   one or more unions, wherein the one or more unions connect the pinky sheath and the ring finger sheath;   at least one strap connection located on the glove, wherein the at least one strap and the at least one strap connection are adapted to form a releasable connection.   
     
     
         13 . The apparatus of  claim 12 , wherein the releasable connection is formed by a hook and loop fastener. 
     
     
         14 . The apparatus of clam  12 , wherein the at least one strap connection is located on a back side of the glove. 
     
     
         15 . The apparatus of  claim 14 , further comprising a middle finger sheath, wherein the one or more unions connect the ring finger sheath and the middle finger sheath. 
     
     
         16 . The apparatus of  claim 15 , wherein the one or more unions comprise an element that is selected from the group consisting of elastic material, animal hide, hook and loop fasteners, elastic webbing, non-elastic webbing, stitching, snaps, and combinations thereof.
