That link from the one from cabelas is nice, thats the one i have too. Hey the best thing about it and make sure u look, is the zipper pocket. Its great to throw a couple hand warmers in and ur hands will never get cold while in stand.

i have never had much luck with the mitten type gloves as far as warmth goes, so i reccommend the gloves thinsulate makes, theyre kinda thick, solid colored, and are fuzzy warm with thinsulate all over

UA Glove liners and then a Wool glove liner over that work nice. Personally I usually only wear the UA liners or nothing at all.

I dislike gloves![:@]I usually always have a handwarmer in each pocket to warm my hands up should the need arise though;)

Yep, that's pretty much what I do, but I use a muff....those UA gloves are awesome....

The Medalist gloves do a good job for me. They aren't real bulky, but I have been surprised how warm they will keep my hands down into the 20's. I haven't had a problem putting the release around the cuff of the glove like I have with other gloves.

I usually wear a bulky warm glove on my bow hand and to keep my release hand warm, I stick it in a coat pocket with a hand warmer until needed.

Best thing to do for hands is layer up and possiblys use a hand muff. Put small shooting gloves below some bigger gloves, then put your hands inside the muff. When a deer comes, just slip off the bigger glove from your shooting hand and it is go time!Also, just like feet, do not overheat your hands on the way to your stand so your hands begin to sweat. Wear the smaller gloves in and when your hands start to cool, put the bigger gloves on so your hands don't get sweaty then freeze.

Stalking for goats when I've got to have waterproof gloves that allow me to use an ice axe or hiking pole I wear a polypropylene liner inside of these:

I slip the glacier gloves off and shoot with just the poly liners when I get in close. The problem with most winter gloves is that they have grippie palms which is exactly what you don't want for accurate shooting. You want a slick glove that allows the bow to settle into a consistent grip point. The bulk of a heavy glove will also throw off your shooting.

For stand hunting I'd have the same liners but I'd keep my hands in a muff or keep them in my pockets.
