Best thing i know of where cold weather bowhunting.  There are better ones made and willing to bed a site sponsor carries one but heres one from a quick search.  If you ned more warmth, throw a couple hand warmers in there too.

OK, call me a sissy, but I pretty much quit wearing gloves while stand hunting in the winter. I put a hand warmer in a muff on a belt around my waist (I don't like things hanging from my neck). I pull my hands out to use my binoculars or draw my bow. The rest of the time they are warmer than they would be in any gloves and I can handle the exposure for the few minutes they need to be out in the weather. I wear my regular shooting glove on my shooting hand and nothing on the other. [/b]
Beat me too it. haha

Another vote for the AL Crossover. When it is cold, I stick one of those chemical handwarmers in my coat pocket and just take my glove hand out to shoot or hold binocs. Been fine even in below zero temps.
If you don't like cops, next time you need help, call Al Sharpton
