how many DO NOT wear gloves and face mask?

[two4hooking]

Nothing on face or hands...well maybe deet here in the early fall.  no camo either.  Just plaids and wool.  Yes, I kill deer from the ground...

I wear a glove on my bow hand to keep mosquitoes off as best i can.  Theyre normally bad but ive never seen them as bad as i have this year.  I would wear a mask but my glasses fog up.  Gonna start using clay as facepaint.

I wear a merino wool gaiter that I can pull up over my nose if needed.  I don't like anything on my face if possible as I don't like the feel. I do wear finger less gloves.

I've favored camo paint in the past, but switched to a mask this season due to the shear heat. I put my stands up early and it's not unusual for deer to know where they are before I even hunt them(even in thick cover), so I can't get away with any movement at all and need every advantage.  Since I use cock fletch to nose as a draw check I had to make sure I could pull the eye hole down under my nose when shooting and that works fine. My corner of mouth anchor wasn't negatively impacted. I don't normally wear gloves, but I have a set of mesh-type that I cut the fingers out of that I can shoot with a tab or glove....for exceptionally inquisitive deer that really need removing from the gene pool before they pass that IQ to the next generation!

A little carbomask on my face and hands.
Works like a charm

Ýesterday,I was hunting from the ground (tree seat) when a bear walked in at 20 ýards and was heading straight towards mè. I yelled and he stopped and began looking for me. So I  yelled again...He looked once more and then he left. Glad I was çamoed to the hilt... including face and hands!

Hate to admit it but I don't have any idea if wearing gloves affects my shooting. I've never tried it.

I just try to keep hands warm (not too difficult) until time to grab bow (I keep it hanging most of the time).  I've had to hold a cold bow grip for a long time (slow deer) and it can get cold enough I want to toe the bow and hold between my knees!

Camo face paint for me, the mask always gets in my peripheral. As far as my hands like others I cut the 3 fingers off of my glove hand.

I don't wear a face mask...never liked how they felt. have used face paint before but normally don't go that route much anymore. I don't wear gloves either.Dunno if that's from duck hunting for so many years(and a duck call with gloves just doesn't cut it)

I'm a ground ponder and wear no gloves or face mask until the weather dictates it. Grow some facial hair,kill your scent an draw slow. Become one with the environment both body and spirit brother. They'll walk up to ya..

I like a thin leather glove on my bow hand - something like a driving or shooting glove - and when shooting with a tab, I use a glove on my string hand with the middle finger cut off, and the tip of the index finger cut off, for anchoring to a tooth.

[Cootling]

I don't wear a face mask or paint, or anything on my left hand.  I like to wear a glove on my left because I like shooting in one.

I do a lot of bowhunting during rifle season and my orange duds, shown in my profile, work fine.  I'd look kind of silly wearing face paint.

If cold enough I will were a thin wool glove, with fingers cut out so I can use my tab.  Sometimes I wear a spando-flage mask with a large hole cut that leaves my mouth nose and eyes uncovered as I find breathing through a mask makes it moist and uncomfortable, especially in the cold.

[dringge]

I wear light gloves, with the fingers cut off on my right hand. Doesnt interfere with my tab. I also dont care for facemasks but wear them.

[jim phenes]

i used to wear camo paint but the stuff I have really smells so I went to a beard and glove on bow hand. and 3 fingers cut out on shooting hand in cold weather. killed my biggest trad buck ever 3 years ago early season no glove no paint or face mask.

[woodchucker]

Hey Vic, Have you been Shape-Shifting again...??

[swamper]

I wear a face mask hood with the front cut open and can turn my head when deer are close.Where light camo gloves,but just slice under the fingers not cut them off,easy enough to slide fingers out to shoot since I dont use a tab or glove.
