what do you use? i have a pair of whitewater tactical gloves that i love.. but they are on their last leg an i absolutely cannot find another pair anywhere... even after scrubbing google!!!

i want something tight, flexible, and still able to use my fingertips for nible tasks (loading/unloading shells, changing collar, lighting lighter, etc..) yet still tough in the field!

help!

I use these at work, and in the field when it is warm enough!!

They can be had for less than $15.00 a pair at most wleding supply stores. They have an insulated version as well.

Tractor Supply

Deer Skin Leather Gloves, with a snug fit. Love them.

I also have a pair of Cabelas Camoskins gloves I used to use for bow-hunting until I got my scentlok's. I love them. They are warm until about 40 degrees as well. Tight and flexible - if you don't mind camo patterns.

If you have a menards or a lowe's nearby, try the mechanix line of gloves, for mechanics, there are different versions. I have a pair I have used this hunting season so far and they have worked very well so far. I have the non-insulated type.

Oh yeah, I have those too, but they are too greasy and oily.

I use two different sets. For just cold but not too cold, windy weather, I wear calf skin golfing gloves. They are just about perfect, "grippy" but not too "grippy," and work unless it is really cold. They do not work when it is wet.

When it is colder I have a pair of DU thinsulate lined that I keep under my pillow when I sleep, so they do not walk off. They are the type with the black fabric on the fingertip, and a different fabric (camo) elsewhere. I have gone through several pair trying to find one that fits, and these are it.

Gloves with fingertips that are too long, are worthless, you can't put them through the hole between trigger and trigger guard fast enough. Same with gloves with big loose fingers.

Snug fitting deerskin is the ticket IMO.

I've used a pair for about twenty years from Trophy Glove Company. Absolutely the best glove for shooting I've ever used. I don't like to feel a trigger through a glove. but sometimes it's a necessity. These gloves I don't mind using at all, and it's the only pair I've ever found that I can say that about.

I use anything warm which one of the best are the lined jersey type gloves on my left hand and try to get by with a brown jersey glove that fits fairly tight on my right. These work well for me and are fairly cheap. I'd rather hunt bare handed and do till it gets cold.
