    Nail them to a target and go for it.

    Some people shoot at tin cans and some people shoot at gloves.

    Either is fine as long as you are having fun.

    Thanks,

    I bought these yesterday and they showed up today and today I was walking the dog and I was wearing them and it was 39°F. Nope! Insulation insufficient. I'm thinking a pair of full leather golf gloves would do much better. Had a wicked pair of full leather gloves that I lost that would have been excellent, but Louisville Slugger no longer offers them. So, there may be batting gloves that might be a better option too. These Magpul gloves just don't have enough insulation and it's only 39°F. Not much value here, apologies.

    Depends on the trigger guard you have. They make trigger guards that are better suited for gloves. If you have one of those a normal glove should work well. If you have a normal trigger guard I would say find gloves that have removable trigger fingers or one that has a thinner trigger finger than the rest of the glove.

    some shooters use the gloves NFL receivers wear. When I was shooting on the ISU skeet circuit I had batting gloves or racquetball gloves when it was cold

    Might try something in neoprene, like diving gloves. Most have rubber on the gripping surfaces
    They are not particularly warm, but they are thin and 100% cut the wind.

    On finger tip at a time, and a smiley face in the palm?
