Bowhunting Glove Recommendation

[VFL]

I'm looking for a form-fitting/somewhat tight bowhunting glove that is lightweight but will keep my hands fairly warm during 40 degree and below weather. I've used some generic brands that are okay but they are not water resistant or touch-screen compatible. I don't necessarily "need" them to be water resistant or have the touch-screen capability; however, it would be nice. I've tried the fingerless gloves (all five fingers) but my hands obviously don't stay warm enough. I've used First Lite's Talus Full Finger Touch Gloves but they are not very warm or durable (I've had to sew them 3x already in 1.5 years). I'm somewhat curious to the open index-finger gloves, but take any recommendations.

My main requirement in a bow hunting glove is nothing grippy or sticky on the palms. I want the bow to slip right into position on my hand. With that said, I like the Sitka gloves with the thumb and index finger being open.

I have a couple pairs of UA heat gear gloves with the thumb & finger tip cut off. I just wear a muff when it’s cold I’ve never had any luck with gloves keeping my hands warm anyway, the muff solved that so any type of liner glove works great…….

I'm in the same boat as you - I don't like anything on the palms. Ironically, I'm currently looking at the Sitka gloves as we speak. Do you know if you have the ESW or Fanatic glove?

I'm also looking at their merino wool glove, but leaning towards the ESW or Fanatic...

I have a muff, as well, but in 40ish degree weather, if I can avoid carrying a muff in, I'd like to. I'll look into the UA heat gear gloves, though - thank you!

Pretty sure I have the fanatic. I don't think there's a whole lot of warmth to them tho

I love the sitka traverse gloves for bowhunting.

Are they bulky?

No not at all. Heavier than a jersey but a little less bulk than a rag wool glove but about as warm to me.

Danos fleece pouches take the chill off. Surplus liner gloves...like a jersey glove
