For bird hunting, I like a glove on my left hand and no glove on my right. I keep an electronic hand warmer in my right hand warming pocket. Just keep your hand in the pocket when not shooting.

Another option is to wear a nitrile medical glove on your right hand, and still do the hand warmer. It will keep your hand, amazingly warm.

Most of the big duck callers don’t wear gloves. Your hand actually stays warmer. If you just keep it in your pocket with a hand warmer most of the time. It is hard to shoot shotguns with a glove on your right hand.

I have used insulated golf gloves and also used liners under Cabela's deerskin gloves.
Both work but the deerskin is more durable-We hunt sagebrush and Russian Olive and they are pretty abrasive.
As mentioned before, and I have cold hand from poor circulation, once I get moving and exert myself, my hands get much warmer.
Also worth mentioning, leather gloves absorb moisture and can freeze solid.

I'm pretty convinced the Showa Temres gloves are the answer for most glove questions. Wore them almost exclusively on my December muzzleloader moose hunt. Didn't get subzero conditions, but they were great. Cheap too!

I have heard of the nitrile glove under an outer glove trick but have yet to try it.

I always wore a thing merino type glove under a nice fitting leather work glove.

I bought myself a pair of the Hunt Monkey Mule Work gloves. Stretchy, with leather palms. Seems to fit my hands well. Fingers aren't stupid long. I can swipe my phone without taking off...which I like when I need to check Onyx maps. I'm wearing them during this stretch of cold weather really just to break them in for next season. So far I like them.
