Stick no tab incorrectly (5)
I believe the answer is:
baton
'stick' is the definition.
(term for a stick or staff)
'no tab incorrectly' is the wordplay.
'incorrectly' is an anagram indicator (I've seen this in other clues).
'no'+'tab'='notab'
'notab' is an anagram of 'BATON'.
(Other definitions for baton that I've seen before include "Short rod (that can be passed!)" , "weapon" , "Relay race stick" , "Relay runner's stick" , "A stick for a conductor and policeman" .)
