Any cold finger solutions?

I've pheasant hunted for over 25 years and never solved the cold finger thing when it gets below 10 deg. Many say to stay home but here in WI I frequently go in single digit temps. I'm yet to find a glove made that is warm enough but still allows you to feel the trigger, or get inside the trigger guard at all. My latest trial was to wear thin glove liners inside a pair of large mittens where the palm has an opening that allows all 4 fingers to easily push through. When one of my labs got hot I'd get my fingers out and be ready. It worked OK but I found there to be a lot of mitten material close to my eye and also up around the forearm just because of their bulkiness. Found it distracting to focus on the bird with the entire blaze orange near my line of sight. Does anybody have a solution they've found that seems to work?
Thanks
