Upland gloves?

[iron cat]

Same here! They allow great dexterity and adequate protection from brush as well as the cold.

Also helpful when pulling cactus from the dog.

Seem to last quite a while also

You bet!
I tend to get into briar patches, Russian Olives and Wild Rose and Raspberry bushes on a regular basis, and over the years have developed a big ol' hate for thorns!
I find the Watsons do pretty good for keeping my hands relatively free of the blasted things !LOL
Plus if it's warm out I don't get the oils and salt from my hands wrecking the on my guns

Very tough subject once you go more than a few degrees below freezing. I went with the same 3 season gloves the special services lads use in the field but below about -10 or so with windchill, I used to have to wear ordinary street gloves of a sort that allow as much trigger feel and dexterity as possible. But then I found these Austrian Special Forces mittens sold under the brand name Heat 3:

and they're good down to around -30 C if you want to push it. The only thing I don't like are the magnetic buttons that hold the mitten segment back to allow use of the thin liner glove, they might mess up my compass if I stow the two together, or on actual use for that matter.

I put a photo of these on an American gun site one time and one Yank posted that they scared him, contemplating that type of cold.

Last year at the range, I used thin dollar store winter gloves, mechanic nitrile gloves over it, rubber band the cuffs.

I bought my wife some of those for her camera hobby ( I forget the combination of liners etc ) and it set me back like 400 bucks She loves them but expensive

Those are for waterfowlers who want to look like the cool cats from Duck Dynasty. Real waterfowlers put their ammunition in their coat pockets, lean their gun barrel against the blind frame and tuck their hands under their armpits or warm them on a wet retrievers belly.

I like a good fitting pair of Watson deer skin gloves.

Bob Allen insulated leather shooting gloves, very thin leather.

Yup.

These get me to the mid minus teens , then after that it’s double or triple white cotton gloves on the trigger hand and a thick snowmobile style glove on the forend hand.

I won't wear gloves to shoot I want to feel the trigger.

Home Depot usually has a 2-3 pack of light duty work gloves, I grab them whenever I find ones that fit well. Great for cold weather hunting, driving or just working around the property. Usually a 3 pack is about $15-25 and will last me a year, when it get really cold I have a pair of leather thinsulate gloves I picked up at princess auto for cheap.

Funny as it might look, when it's cold I'll usually have a appropriate mitten on my left hand. And either a leather roper/ or wool/fleece glove on my shooting hand.

And these sure look good!

One thing I left out about the Heat 3 mitts is that the zipper pull on the palm can seriously scratch up the wood on your fine shotgun. I found that putting a swatch of Gorilla tape on it did the trick as long as I was careful- Gorilla tape is a bit thicker than other duck tapes and provides better padding.

This looks highly usefull.

I all ready use a big fanny pack when hunting water fowl. This thing looks a tad bit more useful then the fanny pack. shells on the outside, and in their own pockets. A pocket for my other stuff. and I can wear smaller gloves and just use the pockets in this thing. Didn't know these existed 100% ordering one.

Just looked them up... $200US... Ouch. I'll stick with my odd-setup.

Winter mountain bike gloves, and XC skiing glove also work good enough for me.

Like I said paid 400 CD for a pair for my mrs and could have been more pending what option(s) she selected

As soon as it gets too cold for bare hands in the fall, I wear a pair of UnderArmour hunting gloves. They’re very thin, but insulate well.

When it gets down to where I can feel the cold metal through those, I add a thicker glove over top of those, but only on my left hand. No matter how cold it gets, the hunting glove is the only thing I wear on my right hand. If my right hand starts complaining, I carry the gun cradled on my left arm and keep my right hand tucked in behind the arm, ready to grab the wrist of the gun if I swing it out to shoot.

Paying stupid $ for something for the Mrs is one thing (If it makes her, it is probably a good investment)
- I'm not quite there yet for myself, at least for hunting gloves... Motorcycle gloves are a different matter

Never stupid money to keep the mrs happy and peanuts if I ever added up her camera gear. I have guns she has camera gear both are happy LOL

Can't beat Bob Allen shooting gloves. Thin leather insulated or not depending on cold.
