Playing without a glove?

[Alex1975]

Do many/any pros play without a glove?

That's hardly surprising though is it? You've got to allow time for your hand to toughen up a little.

By then his wrist will have broken.

I have soft hands.... and bones

Can't you make it to Chartham Park tomorrow Murph? There's a space available.

Took it off during a round in January as it was raining and clubs kept slipping out of my hand. I havent bothered with one since.
During the summer if it was hot i dried my hand with a towel.

Can't do it. Would love to, but just can't get the time off, what with going to Beau the week after. Silly really, as I have naff all to do at work this week. I sent an email yesterday. That was as good as it got. Have fun.

Never have:never will. How can you have more feel with a glove on?

No glove for me, although I have tennis grips over my normal grips as I have shovels for hands.

I think you get a lot more feel.

Also, I dont hold the club like toothpaste and all that rubbish, I do grip it pretty tight with the bottom 3 fingers so dont need that extra grip that you get from a glove.

Only wear when one its hot and sweaty, never wear one on chips or putting though.

Ben Hogan never used one and he was the daddy.

Try Kakadu gloves, Kangaroo leather, marvelous, they grip like mad in the wet. £18 a piece ont 't'internet, search google..

They last for months and months..

You need to add them to your list of gear.

Rocco mediate and Fred funk don't use gloves. If i dont use a glove i get blisters all over my hands :/

as i have said, i do not wear a glove now, but why do people get sore hands etc on their gloved hands but not the other hand?
only had sore hand once and that was after a 4 week break, ok next day
i think its a personal thing, but never really found a glove i was totally happy with so gave up spending tenners and do not even think about it now
