Glove or no Glove

[Wolfman]

Since playing i have never normally played with a glove on my lead hand

Does it make any difference or is it a habit ?

At the range i have tried glove and no glove and didnt see any change to my ball striking

What do you guys think any good reasons to glove it ?

 

[Jensen]

I personally don't use a glove. I've tried it but just don't find it comfortable. Personally I find I have more "feel" without a glove.

I've always worn a glove but take it off for putting

 

[Essex_Stu]

Glove wearer here. Dont know why though. Always take it off for putting and chipping though.

 

[Wolfman]

Hi Chris, any reason you have always worn a glove ?

Have you tried without ?

 

[mcbroon]

I've worn one ever since my driver flew out of my hand as a teenager. Feels weird not to now. Take it off for putting, though.

Only reason I wear a glove is too stop calluses and to tell me if I'm doing anything untowards with my grip. (Wear on glove)

Glove on at the 1st tee - glove off beyond the 18th green
Can't be bothered with taking it off, back on again, off, back on again........

Don't know why I wear one - I guess after all this time it just feels wierd without one.

Does it make a difference?

Probably not.

On for all but putting. I feel like it gives my whole hand better purchase on the grip which gives me more confidence than hitting a shot without.

I have baby soft hands so wear a glove to protect them

Seriously though wear a globe as it encourages a more relaxed grip on full shots but take it off as soon as I'm within 110 yards of the green

glove off for me,better feel for the grip,plus why do you actually need one,it's not if our hands sweat in the hot weather over here is it.If your grip feels slippy then get it regripped.
In the rain fair play though macwets for me

I don't usually wear a glove, because I can grip the club without one. However, if my hands get clammy or dry I tend to put one on, but only for the shot. I don't like wearing one because it feels like a faff. It doesn't effect my shot at all.............that remains crap with or without.

it's a lot easier to maintain the correct grip pressure with the added 'stickyness' of a good glove - that means a good glove, well fitting, and probably changed every 6-10 rounds.

Yep! From start to finish!

 

[adiemel]

I wear a glove again from start to finish. don't know why just feel happier with one one

 

[drawboy]

Years ago I never bothered with one. Nowadays I wear one but not cabretta, too flipping expensive and have a lifespan of a mayfly (goolge) get one wet and it'll be like a dorito next time you get it out of the bag.I have changed to the footjoy weathersof and I have had the same one with the same great grip for a season. I'll get a new one soon.

partial glove wear for me on drives and full shots but off for chipping and putting.
