In the never ending search for winter gloves that are double gun compatible -I gave these a try last winter. Basically an insulated version of the uplander glove I wear most of the time

They worked well for winter clays. I wore them for a January duck hunt on one of the Finger Lakes, no issues with triggers. But after a day of heavy rain, I scoff at the claim they are waterproof
