steve_b_wales Posted November 16, 2019 Report Share Posted November 16, 2019 When out shooting in cold weather, I suffer terrible with my hands, in particular, my right hand, due to an injury many years ago. It's awkward to wear thick gloves as I cannot 'feel' the trigger/cartridges etc. Is there anything out there that can prevent this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldypigeonpopper Posted November 16, 2019 Report Share Posted November 16, 2019 hello, i buy those thermal magic gripper gloves, they are black but most use at night, still good for shotgun, i but a few pairs at a time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diver One Posted November 16, 2019 Report Share Posted November 16, 2019 In y 3 years of missing clays I have tried the following water /windproof Ice Stop gloves.....not warm Mac wet Climatec......fantastic grip in the wet, not warm or waterproof Lidl special neoprene fishing gloves....toasty warm, waterproof apart from the flip back finger tips BUT thicker than a whale omelette HST Tactical gloves....water proof, wind proof but as much grip as a Vicars Handshake Deerhunter leather/fleece........good so far but NOT tried n driving rain its a bit like finding the best tool box/bag/case/carrying system... 48 years of research and disappointment along with angarage full of failures and I'm almost there. Give it another 30 years and I reckon I'll crack it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenholland Posted November 16, 2019 Report Share Posted November 16, 2019 I put surgical gloves on first , then padded fingerless gloves , or have a mooch round your army and navy type stores , they seem to have a good selection . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westley Posted November 16, 2019 Report Share Posted November 16, 2019 Have you considered a handwarmer ? I saw one last weekend at the local clay ground that was electric and small. It would have fitted in the handwarmer pocket of a jacket. I use thin fleece winter golf gloves that have an 'all weather' palm and finger facing. These, coupled with the handwarmer could be the way to go ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use them in the side pockets of my jacket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spandit Posted November 17, 2019 Report Share Posted November 17, 2019 Get the little disposable iron powder handwarmers and shove down the back of your glove. They last for hours Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mice! Posted November 17, 2019 Report Share Posted November 17, 2019 I saw an advert on Facebook last week for waterproof gloves, no idea on price or if they would be suitable for shooting but they looked good. I bought some thermal socks from B&M on Thursday and beating yesterday everywhere soaking wet but my feet were toasty warm in my wellies. Might be worth looking if they do gloves.

Hammo Posted November 17, 2019 Report Share Posted November 17, 2019 Solognac hunting mitts, a zip on the palm lets you pop your fingers out, still covered by an inner glove. Really toasty! You can quickly unzip and shoot, then cover back up with the mitt. Not too pricey either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shalfordninja33 Posted November 17, 2019 Report Share Posted November 17, 2019 I’ve been using riding gloves this season https://www.tuffaboots.com/product/wroxham/ Warmer than macwets, I still have a good amount of feeling in them. For really cold days I use the sealskins winter gloves Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had a stand at the Suffolk country show meaning I could find a pair that fitted really closely. Very happy so far 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave at kelton Posted November 17, 2019 Report Share Posted November 17, 2019 Hot Hands hand warmers, about a quid a pair and the size of a large teabag. Buy a thin pair of gloves from a hiking store and put them in at the back of the hand. That is where the blood vessels are and it will not inhibit the grip on your gun nor feel uncomfortable. I buy them in bulk packs each winter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I buy them in bulk packs each winter. I like this idea. I've also found glove liners, then surgical (latex type) with leather shooting gloves on top is a good combination.

Croohur Posted November 18, 2019 Report Share Posted November 18, 2019 Anyone know if there is a type of glove with fleece or lined on the back of the hands but just thin leather or fabric for palm and fingers? Tried Google searching but hard to describe it without getting all lined gloves. It's the back of the hands that get cold for me, getting hit by the wind, can usually curl the fingers around gun for protection Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shearwater Posted November 18, 2019 Report Share Posted November 18, 2019 Sailing crew gloves. . . you need to wet them first as they don't keep your hands warm when dry but are great when wet something like these but they also do fingerless versions and Gill is a mid-range price brand https://www.marinesuperstore.com/clothing-accessories/gloves/gill-deckhand-short-finger-gloves?variant=99498696&utm_source=google_shopping&utm_medium=pcn&utm_term=7042&utm_campaign=MSS&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIsebbp7j05QIVDLDtCh0gbQTUEAYYBiABEgI3DvD_BwE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morrisman Posted November 19, 2019 Report Share Posted November 19, 2019 I've just this minute bought these, they are nice and comfy but they certainly won't be waterproof. I like a small glove but don't suffer the cold too much. https://www.trespass.com/atherton-unisex-gloves Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordon R Posted November 19, 2019 Report Share Posted November 19, 2019 Le Chameau shooting gloves. Thin enough to feel the trigger, but warm enough. Tried many, but these are the best of the bunch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
