I personally like deer or goat skin gloves. Fit is very important to me. I buy gloves that fit tight so I try them on before buying. Dave

I'd guess the golf gloves are great. I use a variety of gloves. I have some paper thin leather gloves from a store here; not sure what they are intended for, gardening maybe?? They fit like they are painted on and are good for shooting. The "work" gloves available at Home Depot and other hardwares are good. Part nylon with a leather palm and fingers that have fancy stitching all over them that make them absolutely useless for working but fine for shooting since they fit very snugly and form fitting... and they're cheap at $10/pr. I also use Bob Allen thinsulate insulated gloves when hunting in the winter. You have to keep trying pairs on to find a pair that fits snugly as no two pairs of the same size fit the same. When target shooting in warmer weather I often just wear any leather glove on the left hand because of hot barrels but nothing on the right hand. I'd have to say that the very thin gardening gloves are my overall favorites.

I have a pair of Bob Allan and a pair of Grip Swells for winter target shooting but for hunting I don't wear any. And after this weekend up north my hands sure show it.....

I use a pair of thin goatskin gloves I bought at a hardware store or Home Depot a number of years ago. They are durable, warm enough even when wet and have conformed nicely to my hands... yes, my hands look exactly like these gloves but without the sweat stains and grouse and woodcock blood. They don't work for deer hunting because they smell a little...
In fact, there is so much blood and sweat absorbed into the leather they might make a decent soup...

Those gloves have some real character! It's funny that as mature men, we cling to pieces of clothing our wives wish we would throw out, even though they are "just broken in" to us.

Usually, I just hate gloves.......but I do have a pair of Grip Swells, and they are really nice. I usually remember them in the middle of a round of skeet when the barrels are burning the heck out of my left hand. Or, hunting, after I a a mile from the truck.

I use cotton gloves with the trigger finger cut 1/2 way off, seems you can feel the trigger better, but live in V.A. might not work in colder climates, long ago I just used my weight lifting gloves, no ends in any of the fingers!
