We used to rub some Copenhagen on wounds, following pappys advice. Didn’t really fix anything, but that’s what we did
What do you mean tape up? How do you tape?bag balm and then tape up. dont waste money on corn huskers.
if you tape up before they crack you will be way ahead of the problem. i keep masking tape close by.
If the cracking happens at the cuticle then probably taping the cuticle is my guess.What do you mean tape up? How do you tape?
I was actually thinking about wearing a pair of leather driver style gloves which I have treated with obenaufs, with a liberal amount of some sort of sauve or beeswax type product or something while actually hunting.I was rafting guide for a number of years and my hands would get chewed up in cold weather. I found that regular Vaseline and cotton gloves at night would stop the cracking. You could even try wearing some mechanic type gloves with a bit of Vaseline during the day too
Oddly enough mine don't crack at the cuticle. It's always high use areas, like if you pinch something between your thumb and finger. It will form a long split there. I would like to try something with lanolin but most of the products made from it have something else undesirable in it like paraffin.i like something with lanolin in it or pure lanolin. put it on cuticle and then tape the ends of your fingers with masking tape or what ever you like. something that sticks well.
