I use tape around my thumb and middle finger at the first knuckle closest to the fingernail on my left hand.

I actually wear mine constantly when I play, even when putting. I'll take it off while walking if it's hot to keep dry, but I am much more comfortable with a glove on when I have a club in my hand.

I use a glove on my left hand, always have and probably always will. I usually have tape in a few places on my right hand to keep blisters away where i commonly get them.

I always take my glove off for putting however, and some short-game shots I will take my glove off as well, mostly "touch" or "feel" shots I would call them.

No glove here, I feel the club twist on slight mishits where the glove slides/moves between it and my hand. Just more stable without one.

No glove and no tape for me. The only thing I need to worry about sometimes is too much grip pressure, but blisters aren't really an issue and I feel the club much better without one.

Playing regularly again after a few years off. Started playing in 1999.

tape on the middle joint of the middle and index fingers on both hands 99% of the time...if for some reason i'm playing in humid conditions (not often, i live in socal where it's pretty much perfect all the time), i will put a glove on, just it is such a pain to wipe down teh hands and grip before and after every shot

Don't see the point of them myself to be honest.

Not while hitting the ball - marketing ploy.

Very soon I'll be wearing gloves, a knit cap (a touque in Canada) and a scarf between shots.

I have somewhat dry skin, so I use a glove for all except putting.

In weeks when I play twice and practice twice, my hands would be raw without the glove. Glove on the left hand also helps my right hand stay intact.

Focus, connect and follow through!

No glove.... except for my FJ winter gloves, and then only when the temp is below about 45°.

I don't wear a glove, haven't for many years. With cord grips I find it better to go without a glove. Also, I'm cheap, one less thing I have to spend money on!

Yeah, wanna make 14 dollars the hard way?

I wish I didn't have to wear a glove because I have a ridiculous tan line. I just don't get as solid a grip without one.

You guys got me thinking about looking into different grips.

Been playing just a few months but I play almost every day.

What's in my bag: Distance Master Driver, Maltby Trouble Out woods/hybrids, Maltby KE4 Irons (all assembled by me so I can never blame my equipment).

      SuperSpeed Sues Stack System for Supposedly Syndicating Successes & Statistics

      By iacas ·

      https://static1.squarespace.com/static/603d222df4a6a57df7ef3e29/t/663cdba5d89e3a1848dab8d1/1715264422455/US_DIS_ILND_1_24cv3749_d34676497e293_COMPLAINT_filed_by_SuperSpeed_Golf_LLC_Jury_Demand.pdf The full complaint is there, but  basically, SuperSpeed (SS*) is claiming the Stack System (SS*) Stack System’s [sic] produces inflated metrics later used to, [sic] mislead and deceive consumers. Stack System’s marketing materials inflate apparent swing speed and distance gains through selective presentment of data without qualification that purported gains are not the result, in whole or part, of its training protocol and products. * Yes, I'm joking about abbreviating both "SS." SuperSpeed wants: A judgment that the Stack System has disseminated false and/or misleading information in violation of federal and Illinois law. The deletion of all false advertising distributed and recall of all packaging containing false advertising and a requirement that Stack System issue notices (written or otherwise) to that effect to all current distributors and retailers of its products and all distributors with whom Stack System has done business in the past eighteen months. Written confirmation within 30 days of an injunction detailing the manner and form in which Stack System has complied. An order that Stack System disseminate corrective advertising informing consumers, the trade, and the public of Stack System’s unlawful conduct. 3X all profits received by Stack System as a result of its unlawful actions. 3X all damages sustained by SuperSpeed (as a result of Stack System’s actions) The cost of the action All reasonable attorney fees All other relief to which SuperSpeed are entitled and such other or additional relief as just and proper. Oy.

      Jack vs. Tiger: Who's the Greatest Golfer?

      By iacas ·

      I'm not doing this for the hundred and twentieth time. Sorry in advance, but you get the massively abridged version. Those guys also benefited from the weaker/shallower fields. Also, Watson's career doesn't overlap with Jack's like many think it did. Tom is nearly a decade younger. Jack won only like four majors only after Tom won his first. And Tom won more British Opens than he did all three of the other majors combined, as it was his specialty (not Jack's). Arnie's career similarly doesn't overlap Jack's as much as many think.   Jack would also tell you Tiger was the better golfer.

      Jack vs. Tiger: Who's the Greatest Golfer?

      By Dr. Manhattan ·

      Weaker depth of fields for sure. Some of the top level guys with Jack were pretty awesome. Tom Watson had the lead on the 72nd hole of the 2009 British Open, an event where Tiger missed the cut. Old Tom was almost 60 years old. Jack himself at age 58 finished Top 10 at The 1998 Masters and scored better than Tiger, who won The Masters by 12 shots just a year before that.   The success of both Tom & Jack in older age gives some hope that maybe Tiger can find the magic again at some point. He’s still trying to figure out how to build the stamina for 72 holes after the leg injury. I would love to see him jump on the leaderboard in the coming years. I know a lot of people have given up on him at this point, but that was also true from 2014 to 2017 with the back injuries. He had a hell of a resurgence in 2018 & 2019. Would be fun to see it again.

      Perceptive rules question by caddie unlocks Tour pro’s ‘dead zone’ relief A perceptive rules question by Xander Schauffele’s caddie, Austin Kaiser, unlocked “dead zone” relief during the Wells Fargo Championship.

      I ran across an interesting new clip, Johnson Wagner went into that spot with the Referee who allowed the relief.  Apparently there was a perfectly reasonable shot to be made, as Johnson clearly demonstrated, so relief from the TIO was perfectly appropriate.
