Longtooth,

I recently bought a Hoffner's Ultimate Shirt Tucker also. First shirt tucker I ever owned. I wrestled my shirt down between the holster and my pants. I cinched up my belt and tried to clear the shirt for a draw. Ha Ha Ha Ha,
I couldn't get the shirt out of my waist band for awhile, way too long. My problem is I'm built like, let's say, to paint a picture, a tennis ball with legs sticking off the bottom. No hips! I have to cinch my belt up real tight to where it diggs in all the way around to keep my pants up. If I don't draw my belt up tight enough, I can hop up and down just a little and my pants will be down around my ankles and thats just with car keys, knife and some change.
So, I'm not going to tuck. I really like the holster and I will wear it with my shirt OUT.

I'll add one other tidbit of related info. I wear an undershirt (tanktop style) to keep the gun off my bare skin. The cotton undershirt and a cotton outter shirt always seem to hangup on each other. ie. If I reach up the shirt goes up and stays up and I have to grab the shirttail and pull it down.
I had a "great idea". I bought a $20 silk undershirt. Now my cotton outter shirt slides up and down smooth "as silk" and always hangs very naturally. However my PANTS also slide very smoothly on the silk undershirt.
You solve one problem and create another! I may try susppenders under my cover garment.
Good luck
