My hands get too cold below 50 degrees. I used to love winter, but they suck for my body more and more.

Can't say I have, what's probably more likely to happen at a match is shooting in the rain.

If it snows, we do not leave the house here. These idiots can't drive when the roads are clear, let alone on ice. The first few years in Texas, after being raised in the rust belt, I thought I was tough and would go out like normal only to find I was the only one there.

I shoot in the winter as long as the snow isn't too deep. I have been lucky this year, the snow was late to the party, and I was able to keep the ground targets in place a little longer. However, the snow is now deep on the forest floor, and I had remove the snow around them, or move to a higher location. Needless to say, I'm running on borrowed time on the f/t range. This will be the last week of F/T 2024/2025 When the snow is too much in the mts, I switch over to the desert for the rest of the winter. The older I get the colder I get. LOL.
I have been using hot hands hand warmers for years @ work and decided to give them a go while I shoot in the cold. I put them in a pair of fingerless gloves, on the top of my hands and that seemed to do the trick. There are usb rechargeable types that a friend uses while snowmobiling, he says thay are a game changer for keeping hands warm.
