Glove changes

[t0m]

How often do you change your gloves I have been having issues with how the club felt in my left hand for about 1 and a half rounds and tonight at the range it dawned on me to try a new glove what a difference.

As soon as it shows any signs of wear at all.

Being left handed it's not easy to get one on spec so I have a large supply at home and always a spare new on i the bag

I have a few new ones in my bag but was pulling the top one out each time I have definitely learnt a lesson

Played on Wednesday and shot my lowest ever competitive round with possibly the oldest glove ive ever used (took my gloves out of my bag and forgot to replace them).

So for me not sure it makes a pick of difference.

once my gloves start showing wear they are used for range work ,and a new one is used for on course play.

Once it starts to feel different or a hole develops.

Had been sticking with Sciflex which unless they got soaked and I didn't dry them properly, I could use pretty much until holes appear.

Tried some Callaway leather gloves but they felt like they had less grip after a few rounds so went back to Sciflex.

Now using a Wilson advantage but haven't used it long enough to know how it will fair. Pretty confident with it though so have bought another 6 Wilson gloves.

I've changed mine a little more often recently only because I drop into the hell hole known as Sports Direct and pick up decent Srixon gloves on deals at £5.99 each or 2 for £9.99 rather than paying £12ea in my Pro shop or 2 for £20!

When they fall apart. Only wear them to avoid blosters

I keep them till they become worn out. In the past I've replaced a glove that had worn so thin I could see my skin colour through them and the last one I replaced as it the leather had started to harden.
I always buy Carbretta leather gloves which last longer anyway in my experience.

I use the Cabrettasof and they normally last about a month before the thumb starts getting a hole in it

I have loads, in various colours to go with the shoes (sad I know) so they tend to get rotated regularly and so most last ages. I have a ping glove thats been going for a season and half with only marginal wear to the palm, my usual weak spot

I wear a glove, or wear a hole in my hand. I use titliest players, which are expensive. I change them when I get a hole in them, which makes wearing them pointless.

How long do you roughly get out of a glove murph. I was using them but found I only had a couple of months use out of them. That was expensive over a year

Jeez, a couple of months? If I bin one on month, it's only 17 quid a month. Is that expensive? I probably spend that on chewing gum.

I normally get a new one every month or so depending on the wear on the one I'm using. Although I've never really thought about going gloveless, I started playing and wore one because I thought that's what you did - and it's become a habit now. I might try going gloveless to see if anything changes.
