You know how it goes Charlie... it just gets in there. It just accumulates over time. And heck, if you didn't have it that's the time you'd need it.

I think if I tried to eat one of the candy bars in my blind bag, I'd break a tooth

Same here Charlie. I think it was because when I walked in on a point i would take the right glove off to shoot better. After bulling my way into a thicket to honor a point I would often find the cover traded a glove for a chance at a bird

I always joked some one could determine my woodcock covers by looking for right gloves hanging on thorns

I once lost my back tag that way - found it a couple weeks later revisiting a cover

Finally resolved the problem when I started wearing the Orvis upland gloves - thin enough I leave them on to shoot
