On a hot day, probably every 3rd or 4th hole. I alternate between a pair, with the 'resting' one airing tied to my bag.

They tend to last a couple of years…they do tend to have a lot of holes in them however.

It used to be every 3 months, but last summer , it was such a faff getting them on and off a sweaty hand that i stopped wearing one, and havent gone back.
It was irritating at first because my hands were as soft as veal, and i had to cut the calluses off every month, but they seem to have hardened up now.
I cant see myself going back to wearing a glove atm

About every couple of months, I usually have a couple on the go at the same time. The two I've just retired were started in Sept.

Probably 3 or 4 months. Longer in winter as I'll go to the rain grip one or the Wintersof ones that I've had for a few years.

My zoom tours wear out every 12 to 18months. They are filthy by the time they go. Over the summer I’m swapping two every 9 though but the same two gloves are golf three times a week and the practice range. Introduce a new one every March ready for the new season and the becomes my first glove on the course.

p.s. a little unsure why you couldn’t just put glove in the title.

Ps.. for the exact reason why you clicked it. Because people are curious to what it might be so it brings them into the post!! If it was in the title I’ve found previously ppl don’t bother

What's the indicator for people to switch to a new glove?

My pp literally will keep his glove until there's holes in it :oops::ROFLMAO:

I change mine when I think it needs it. This may be because it is worn, dirty, crusty or getting a bit loose. I am obviously not as OCD as a lot on this forum as I don't mark in the diary when I change gloves so can't be more specific on the actual time ;)

Probably frustrating the active posters more in the long run.

I've stopped using leather gloves as they just wear out so quickly and go hard when your hands sweat in the summer.

I've been using all weather/synthetic gloves for the last couple of seasons now. The current ones are Cobra and they've been very good in terms of grip and durability.

Like Patrick I always have 2 or 3 on the go so they last well - no idea how long though but they last better than leather and are more cost efficient.
