With new clubs that need replacing every now and then, balls that seem never ending to roll around and membership fees all adding up, golf can become costly quickly. This is particularly true when it comes to gloves!

A premium leather glove should fit like a second skin with no loose material across the palm or at the ends of fingers. Look for one made of soft and thin Cabretta leather.

Hand Protection

Gloves provide an integral link between your hands and the club when playing golf, so they should be one of your top investments. They’ll protect them from blisters and calluses while giving you an effective grip throughout your swing.

Gloves may actually enhance your overall game. If your golf glove begins to wear down in the palm area, this could indicate that you are gripping too heavily with your palm rather than fingers when gripping the club at impact, possibly altering how you shape shots and making it harder for a solid feel of impact. This may impact consistency as it alters how your shots are formed as well as giving an inaccurate feel of what the club feels like at impact.

A quality glove should feel like an extension of your own skin and should fit snugly across the palm without excess material over the knuckles. In addition, a good glove allows your hand to move freely and freely with little restriction or restraint.

Grip

Golf gloves provide more than just protection for your hands from blisters; they can also improve your grip. Many players find that wearing one gives their lead hand (the right for right-handed golfers) better control of the club without needing to grip it too tightly.

Though there may be golfers who choose not to wear gloves, many do in warm or wet weather. A comfortable and secure grip are key, so seek out gloves that fit like second skin across the palm with no loose material at the fingertips.

Professional golfers seldom employ two gloves when golfing; this can cause wrist tension that results in weaker swings. To combat this issue, golfers should focus on developing strong grips using only their non-glove hand for optimal support in both wrist and forearm areas.

Weather

As golf is played outdoors in unpredictable weather conditions, you never quite know what the weather will bring; from scorcher temperatures to rain all day. No matter the conditions you need gloves that can perform well when wet and not slip out of your hand when gripping the club. There are various different kinds of gloves designed to perform in wet environments such as Srixon’s rain golf gloves which expand when exposed to moisture for added grip while remaining comfortable to wear too.

Style

Titleist’s Players glove is an outstanding example of style and function. Boasting premium Cabretta leather construction for comfort, it helps improve gripping power on the club while its UA CoolSwitch technology pulls heat away from hands to prevent sweaty palms.

Most golfers wear gloves on their non-dominant hand (the right for right-handed players) during swinging with conventional grips; this hand then acts as the lead hand during the swing itself. Some professional players, however, remove gloves while putting for better feedback and control over the ball.

The Zero Friction ladies Compression-Fit Synthetic Glove comes in an economical two-pack, providing an added level of safety on the course. Boasting natural form and second skin comfort with reinforced palm patches for improved gripping ability – key in keeping clubs from slipping out during swinging! – the Zero Friction Compression-Fit Synthetic Glove makes an excellent way to prepare for unexpected situations on the course.
