I second the use of weight lifting gloves for HEAVY recoil handguns. For lesser recoil handguns I heartily recommend a pair of golf gloves. I know they are sold individually, but by looking thru a well equipped rack one can find a matched pair in right and left. If you need slightly more padding in the palm fit a patch of 'tough skin' and then stick it inside the shooting hand glove. Works great. You can also cut the trigger finger off of the shooting hand glove if you want a better trigger feel. The use of golf gloves as shooting gloves also works great when hunting in slightly cold weather. ....... Big Cholla
