I like the stiff feel around the back of the hand, and the soft feel of the palm, as well as how amazingly well they breathe.

In the Ogio Kingpin bag:

Titleist 913 D2 9.5* w/ UST Mamiya ATTAS 3 80 w/ Harrison Shotmaker & Billy Bobs afternarket Hosel Adaptor (get this if you don't have it for your 913)
Wilson Staff Ci-11 4-GW (4I is out of the bag for a hybrid, PW and up were replaced by Edel Wedges)
TaylorMade RBZ 5 & 3 Fairway Woods

Cobra Baffler T-Rail 3 & 4 Hybrids

Edel Forged 48, 52, 56, 60, and 64* wedges (different wedges for different courses)

Seemore Si-4 Black Nickel Putter

I use Nike Durafeel gloves, for one they feel good and last longer then most gloves but more importantly they are one of the easiest gloves to find for left handed golfers that are also good quality, no offense to FJ!

As far as cheap gloves go, I have used the same pair (Johnny Two-Glove here) of Confidence golf wet weather gloves for the past year and a half. They come in 3 packs per hand and end up being around $4 each. I'm still on the same pair from the beginning of last year. They have survived very well and, until recently, there was not a tear or blemish on the gloves. Sadly, they will be retired in the near future as they are almost worn through on the palm .

Well played haha.

I keep trying to play without my glove but it just feels weird swinging without it now.  I think it does help with my grip when it is really humid out but otherwise I don't think there is much benefit.

I have been using the Footjoy weathersoft gloves for a while now, they are my favorite.

Same one I use - can't beat the price!!

Couldn't go to it straightaway though - athletic tape and some moleskin type stuff from 3M did the trick. Full cords or NDMC help too.

Got some Calloway "all weather" gloves some time ago and really hated them. After a few holes, it felt like my hands were slipping in the glove. I eventually found out that they put some sort of "powder" (talc? cornstarch?) inside the glove. Perhaps to make it easier to try on. Anyway, once the perspiration from your hands gets this powder wet, it is really slippery! Solved the problem by washing the inside of the glove with a bit of detergent and plenty of water. Now they seem fine.

Mizuno Skintite for me

Almost feels like no glove its that thin

FootJoy WeatherSof for me. I tried the Warbirds because the price was attractive but I split them on the vent holes of the fingers after just 6-7 round which is a couple of weeks at best for me. I bought 4 FJ gloves in August and I'm still on the first one.

I tried those highly touted Herzl kangaroo leather gloves and while they are nice and have excellent gripping capabilities, they do not last long at all. I went through three over a 6 month period. I bought a random Titleist from a pro shop before a round a while back because the Herzl split during range hitting. Couldn't tell you the type, but it is very thin and has already outlasted the 3 Herzls lifespans combined.

Used to buy what's on sale at Golfsmith, but after hearing all the endorsements on Footjoy I will probably get stuck on them. I have two pairs now, left and right. They have lasted a month so far.

Costco gloves come in a 3 pack for less than $15. They are as good as any glove I have ever used. They are sized a little big. I wear a ML Footjoy, but wear a medium in the Costco glove.

Footjoy guy here as well.  Haven't tried too many gloves, pretty much started out buying those multi packs of warbirds from walmart, but since I picked up a SPIDR2 at my pro shop I haven't needed a new one.  It's grown a bit rigid with all the sweat drying, but it still fits comfortably with more than enough pad left throughout the glove.  I also picked up a two pack of WeatherSofs at a local range when I forgot to put the spidr back in my bag, and have really enjoyed those as well.  Pretty much use the spidr for the range now and the weathersofs when i play, both are great gloves and I can definitely see why they are so popular.

I think I've tried almost every glove, but all wear out so quick. I'm down to just buying cheap leather gloves in bulk from amazon. But for fit and comfort, footjoy and titleist stand out in my mind.

    • My two cents? Don't. As a beginner that's interested in learning about the golf swing, you'll find yourself consuming a lot of information, most of which isn't even relevant to your own swing. You need to learn you can't think your way to a good golf swing. Focus on the one thing that you're working on and doing that on every swing, come what may. And remember, mishits happen.
    • Day 6 (7 May 24) - More work in the backyard focused on tempo in addition to setup.  Worked with 6 and 7 irons hitting hard foam balls - used the old MacGregor irons to mix it up a little.   
    • No! lol. But they have to be in the right sequence to play mid-handicap golf or little better. Mostly. And even in that there is range/margin for error in the motions and positions that most normal humans can handle. It helps if you have a decent idea of how a golf club moves around the body like you would any other equipment sports (baseball and hockey might be the closest) After all, fairways are 40 yards wide. Don't overthink it. Be diligent in getting basics right. I will concede that it is harder than it sounds but it certainly is not exact angle/exact position/exact degree of bend/exact speed/exact facial expression, etc, every.... single.... time or the result is horrible death. 
    • Looking to play in the Severna Park Golf league and it got rained out the first three weeks. I know the course is being renovated so it is not in great shape but the location is easy for me and I would love to meet some other golfers in my area. Anyone here in Maryland Annapolis area? 
    • I like to look at the positives.  Overall you are fairly consistent down the center with most shots 20 yards or less off center.  On most fairways that should be in play.  Sure, you had some very short duds, but also if you look there is a good cluster in the 110-125 yard range.  Sure, we would all like to be longer, but knowing your typical shot is more important than trying to hit the 7-Iron 175 Yards.  Just take more club for longer shots and do not worry about it.  Your distances may increase as you improve over time so do not get caught up on that now.
