I'm wearing holes in my golf gloves (Footjoy) on the fleshy part of my hand (left) about midway between the base of my pinky finger and the outside of my wrist. My gloves only remain usable for about two rounds before they split wide open. I can see signs of abrasion on a new glove after 15-20 swings.
I'm always fighting a tendency to collapse my left arm just prior to impact, which allows my left wrist to collapse and produces duck hooks off the toe. I've recently been concentrating on maintaining a firm left arm through impact, keeping the left wrist flat or slightly bowed at impact. My shots have improved, but this glove thing is new, so I know I'm doing something wrong.
I've never had this problem before and I know these gloves aren't defective because I've worn holes in the last six I've purchased.
Any ideas of what I'm doing wrong? I can't help but think my grip must be defective, allowing the club to twist in my left hand during the swing.
Where should a golf glove show signs of wear or stress if the player is gripping the club properly?
Thank you
