5 finger shooting gloves....suggestions
« on: January 30, 2010, 10:15:00 AM »
Because of a little accident my pinky finger freezes almost instantly and I do most of my hunting in the cold winter. My 3 finger gloves just aren't giving me enough protection from the elements.

Thanks for your help

cheers

Been using 5-fingers awhile. Dollar store all leather work gloves w/slight seam are cheap & very good.

I took a tab and cut it into thirds, cut it long ways between the fingers.  Then I glued the pieces onto my glove so that they were in the right position for shooting.  Don't have to look for the tab now, it's always there and ready.  Give it a try.....  :bigsmyl:  

BTW....How do you like that Firehawk?

alaksa bowhunting supply offers a full shooting glove and so does 3-rivers archery.

Most of the time i use a cotton jersey glove that i cut off the first three fingers of and that way when i put on my shooting glove, and then the jersey glove over it so all my fingers on that hand are protected from the cold.

I do the same thing with a flip top wool glove mit over my damascus but my pinky just goes goes to ice as I wait for my shot..
Firehawk ?
It's my hunting bow
I love the Firehawk it lauches a heavy arrow real fast
I don't think I have shot a quieter bow and Rodney is Top notch guy to deal with.
