Thin glove liners then either army wool gloves with shooting finger tips cut off or rag wool grippy gloves with tips cut off over my glove. I use heavier wool gloves when it gets really cold. Gonna try some Hot Hands this season as I found a stash in my gear bag.

Noli rogare pro onia pauciora, rogate pro scapulas latiores.

I go afield with bent wood, stick and string in search of serenity  through my primal quest.

Hands in pockets and the chem handwarmer packs.  When it is brutally cold and I am too dumb to stay home (like zero and below), I use the mittens that fold back and put a handwarmer pack in them.

That is what I do. At times I wear a thin glove on my bow hand.  As it gets colder I add the hot hands. If you keep a zip lock bag in your gear you can get a couple hunts out of a hot hands pack.

I use a muff to. Hand warmers for cold days. Make sure the muff is big enough for hands/gloves to slip in and out easy with little movement. But not too big to be in way of shooting.

I've got those thin stretchy gloves that have a little pocket in the back for the hot hands, I've used them on my bow hand down into the teens, I use one of those rubber coated gloves on my bow hand, it gets colder than my draw hand. I don't have any trouble anchoring with the thin gloves.
