Some time back there was a discussion on what gloves to get
for shooting and I have lost this info. Reccomendations?

In the past, I've gone to sporting goods stores and bought baseball batter's gloves. They are light enough, and are usually cheaper than buying regular shooting gloves. I haven't bought one recently, so I don't know the costs, or even if you can still buy just one.

In the warmer months I like to wear golf gloves on both hands, no sweating, better purchase on the gun especially the trigger hand. I am right handed shoot release and cut the trigger finger off the glove. I like the feel when I set the release, seems to work for me. Also a benefit when shooting doubles above 90 degrees, hot gun, no sweaty hands, better control = better scores for me. Scott

I've tried them all and the batting gloves are the best value for the money.
I have these UA ones right now and they are nearing 3 years old and I shoot a lot. I've never been able to get much more than a year from golf gloves.

I'll hop in with a vote for batting gloves. I have been using them for years, but I do it a little different. I wait until the end of baseball season then buy them discounted for under 10 dollars.
Another OT is that I use weight lifting gloves for shooting my HP pistols. The padding in the palm helps take some of the sting out of the big guns.

Jon. that was a HOOT!

Gene and AP. Which one? There is about 10 on that page.

I cut the finger off for better release feel as Scott does, But this year I bought a new pair of BA winter gloves and will impregnate the trigger finger tip withe silicone to take the stickiness away. Might work, might not

I second the use of Master Grip gloves. They only make the thin summer kind, but they are good for a lot of winter shooting. Latest price was $11.95 for one glove, but you get a second one free. Get one for each hand and you have the pair. Shipping is $3, which covers one pair, or 20 pairs. Check them out at mggolf.com.
