Always had long neoprene fleece lined gloves for picking up, and Columbia "100% waterproof" something or others to warm my hands in between birds. Got some new $45 under armors that seem to be pretty good.

I got some Browning Maxus shooting gloves recently that I like. They're Gore-Tex, so waterproof, and they keep my hands a little warmer and much drier than the Under Armour thin gloves I was wearing before.

I've had 'em all and Glacier Gloves are the best I've ever found...about thirty bucks. Fleece lined neopreme...very dry and warm and thin enough to shoot with though I save mine for decoy work and running to the hole.

I like the shooter mittens at the army-navy store. $2.98 for a pair. They ain't waterproof but they're warm as hell and you can shoot with em on. No individual fingered glove comes close to keeping hands as warm as mittens. My hands are true grit in its purest form. Don't need damn stinkin' gloves for nothing when I'm working.

These are the best at keeping your hands warm and dry. I have a pair, and they work great. Very cheap also. If you watch deadliest catch you will see alot of the guys wearing these gloves.

Seal Skin polar tec for hunting and Rocky. for decoys i have Neoprene by Hodgeman fleece lined.
i only get two years out of the seal skin, really not worth the money.

i hate seals skin gloves, pain to get on after they have been wet once, i couldn't tell if they were ever water proof, and once wet, they were cold as HE!! i have some pvc guantlets for picking up (easy on, easy off, and i usualy have a few extra pair for when the others get wet. the warmest ive found are the ice breakers glove mits, and they do rather well when wet. i hate neoprene gloves, they are either too hot, to thin, or leak when you least want them to.
