Am I the only one who doesn’t use any gloves when I am gutting an animal out lol.

Reading the kill kit thread and seems like everyone is using gloves. Guess I am old school. Never tried one. Probably never will. Yup and I still cut myself on occasion.

You are not the only one, just in the minority. Is not wearing gloves a flex?

Who wears rubber gloves to clean game ?

i see lots of people wearing rubber gloves in pictures of animals being cleaned what’s up with that ! CWD ? no water ? I personally don’t carry any latex gloves and never have anywhere

I don't.

 

[NRA4LIFE]

I don't either. However I carry vacuum sealed clorox wipes and a small vial of hydrogen peroxide for clean up.

Grew up never doing it cause it wasn’t something we ever had on hand and still don’t. I used to share a lease with a guy who you thought was doing a full blown heart transplant just to clean a deer.

 

[Shraggs]

Never did until recently, with lime disease, ehd etc seems more do - wether they are preventive is unknown to me. But it is definitely less clean up. If I don’t have a pair stashed I don’t worry

Rubber gloves are cheap and pack tiny. Yes they prevent a lot of nicks and cuts. But also, it's just nice to rip them off at the end and your hands are 100% clean to handle your pack, rifle, whatever.

Lastly the grip on the knife is significantly better with rubber gloves than bloody hands. That alone is a reason to use them IMHO.

Like a lot of luxuries, once you try it, you just can't go back.
I buy the heavy duty from Harbor Freight

I always forget to put them on…

I haven’t worn gloves, but this is an excellent idea.

 

[hiker270]

I don't cause I always forget them. Carry wet wipes to clean up.

 

[TuckTruck]

I never used to, but after I tried it, it makes cleanup so much easier and faster. And as a mechanic, my hands are always tore up, so it is some extra piece of mind.

 

[TFrank]

I never do, but going to start solely to make clean up easier.

Nitrile gloves over liner gloves keep the hands nice and warm.

 

[pods8 (Rugged Stitching)]

It might depend on your access to a water source to clean up after? Cause in dry places having hands coated in dried blood is just annoying imho. I wear gloves not for any fear of contact with something, I wear them because they'd light as hell and make clean up easier.
