Hang your bow up with one of those screw in things. The hand holding the bow gets colder because the bow is cold as heck in the winter. If you need larger gloves to keep you warm, just get one of those gloves where the pointer finger pulls back and your trigger finger can tough the release. If you practice with those gloves, you will get used to it. People always talk about not being able to shoot with anything but their bare hand. I can tell you, one can shoot a bow just fine with a larger glove as long as they practice with it. Also, if you only feel comfortable with smaller gloves, get a hand muff. Those things will keep your hands very warm so you can wear thin gloves.
