Hey Dean ,I'm not sure we could hunt together ,Old Chip might get you down if you have those gloves in a pocket :rotf: and ROLL IN YA !!!! He doesn't miss an opportunity !!!!!!!!!!!!!:rotf:

I also use a pair of fingerless gloves for duck hunting sometimes. They have fleece backs and neoprene palms with the outer half of every finger cut off. They came that way and are very nice for kayaking around and shooting ducks. They keep the hands warm enough even when soaked. Only good in moderate cold though.

My first son Mike is a police officer in Alaska. He uses the sports gloves. I think he's using the football gloves now. Several of the brands are very similar.
They have a very good fit and are fairly thin with a good to excellent grip surface. In the winter they serve well in the cruiser and for short periods outside. I'm not sure what he uses for sustained outdoor duty.

Best regards,

Jeff

The Orvis gloves are nice, but at $58 retail a tad too rich for my blood. Try a set of Nomex military flight gloves. You can find them on E-bay for between $15 and $20 anytime, they fit snugly but flex because of the nomex, the palms are thin, and you can get them in the classic sage green and gray or in desert tan. If you lose one, you don't feel so bad. I still have one half of an Orvis pair I can't bring myself to throw away because they cost so much. Good luck.

I don't were gloves until it gets really cold and heres what I use jersy with cabales fingerless. But when its cold I can't decide if my hands are any warmer with them on.Attachment 11000
