Playing most of my rounds in the desert southwest, I wear two gloves. Mostly to protect my hands from from sun damage. 

I buy pairs of batting gloves from Walmart for around $9-$10 a pair. Probably a throw back from my years playing baseball/softball. I feel comfortable wearing them.

They work just as well as golf "specific" gloves, and they definately last longer. They also offer up a good, tight fit, and a non slip grip on the club. When playing, I never take them off, even to putt. 

Being the old guy I am, they also help to alleviate some of the pre-arthritic pains in my hands I need to deal with. 

I carry 4 pair in my bag for those sweaty, humid days, and/or the occassional rain storm that might pass through. I will change out pairs as needed due to this moisture issue.

During the winter months they are also good for warmth, when used in conjunction with bar-b-que mits. That's another story there.

I use the Roger Dunn store brand gloves.  I am thinking I should follow @Patch's idea and get a second glove for sun protection purposes.  I do notice my right hand is a nice shade of red that contrasts to most of the rest of me (I wear long pants and solar sleeves, so very little of my skin is exposed when I play).  

Then again, my hands sweat a lot so I tend to take off my glove once I'm on the green until I'm ready to hit my next tee shot, so maybe this isn't as good an idea.

As for my RD Store brand, with regular trips to the range and the course, they still last a few months each, and I buy them three for $18.

I use the Footjoy WeatherSof.   I have no problem making one last a full season, 50 rounds.  As a matter of fact, I'm still using last year's glove but it is probably worth replacing.

Well....It didn't deteriorate but after a couple of months it wasn't as supple as it was new.   Once on,  it felt fine and worked well.

i just got two pairs of these on the cheap at GG and they both started reeking after the first time i used them in cold (i.e. non-sweaty) weather. i've had an FJ countour glove for about 5 months that doesn't smell at all and has been stored the same way. are my WeatherSofs defective?

I’ve been playing the FJ Contours for almost a year now, and actually like them better than the Stasofts...

I use the Bionic relaxed grip. Lasts for months. Cost a little more but it will outlast all of the others.

Yes to this...I wear two because of RA in hands. I first tried the Bionics that are specifically for arthritics, but they seemed too bulky. Anyway the relaxed grip Bionics are just right. Also, the MG gloves seem to last a bit longer than regular gloves and are VERY inexpensive. Best, -Marv

I prefer the Zero gloves.  It is basically a one size adapts to all.  Feels more like a second ski and I have enjoyed it over 6 months of using it.  Reasonably priced.

I played my last two rounds with the K-Sig glove and so far it is nice. Pretty durable as well as comfortable.

      The Stack Wedge System

      By iacas ·

      If you own a Stack radar (for now, it's limited to Stack radar only), and want to work on your wedge game… it turns out that wedge distances are 99% correlated to ball speed. So, with a small radar, you can practice your wedge game easily in a gamified way.

      PXG Secret Weapon — Mini Driver

      By ChetlovesMer ·

      Quick update. So, I got the PXG Secret Weapon and I have to say I like it... mostly. (see below) I spent some time with it on the range and I even gathered some data in doors. I'm not going to post data yet, as my swing is still a bit of a work in progress and I'd like to gather some more data after I settle down a little bit more. But here's my review.  First as a driver replacement. ... IMO it is not a replacement, it's clearly more of a supplement... for me anyway. Not long enough to really replace the driver. For me it's about 20 yards short of my driver. It is longer than my 30-wood off the tee. (15 yards-ish) I will say it is easier to hit off the tee than my 3-wood. I get some of my best shots teeing it low, but I also get some of my worst. If I tee it about a full inch off the ground I get very consistent shots. Super repeatable. Amazingly repeatable even with my messy swing. Off the tee, I find it draw biased just a bit. You can tinker with the set up if that isn't your personal cup of tea.  As a 3-wood replacement. For me it's about perfect. It's longer than my 3-wood off the deck (my data showed 10 yards longer) and it has a gentle fade to it, which I love. You do need a clean lie, but I never hit my 3-wood off anything but a clean lie anyway. I found it interesting that I hit a gentle fade off the deck and a slight draw off a tee. I'm sure that's not uncommon. Again, you can tinker with the set up to optimize that if you wanted to... I don't want to.  It's clearly a lot longer than my 3-wood off the tee. Easier to hit off the tee than my 3 wood, and off the deck it's also longer. So, it's a no-brainer 3-wood replacement for me. I will say that over the years I've learned to use my 3-wood for this low-flying-100-yard-punch-out-from-under-a-tree shot.  I'll have to see if the Secret Weapon can handle that duty. But it's going in the bag to replace the 3-wood.  I also turned my 5-wood down from 19 degrees to 17 degrees. ... Incidentally my 3-wood had been 16 degrees. I used to always hit my 5 wood and my hybrid about the same distance. This adjustment helps my gapping a bit at the top of the bag. I can clearly hit my 5-wood farther than my hybrid now.  Overall on the PXG Secret Weapon. The good: It's clearly longer and easier to hit off the tee than my 3-wood. It's a bit longer off the deck than my 3-wood.  It's super forgiving... surprisingly so.  It's uber adjustable. ... Although I do suggest getting fit for it. That will save you having to (or wanting to) buy a weight kit just to try out the infinite number of set ups. The headcover is super cool.  The maybe not so good: Shots out of the middle sound great. Shots off the heal sound great. Shots off the toe sound ... what's the work... clangy? It's very forgiving off the toe and the heal. The flight and the distance are incredibly consistent. But the sound off the toe isn't great.  For me I tend to draw it off the tee and fade it off the deck. You can set it up to be biased either way, but in my hands I think if I set up a draw off the deck, that might induce a duck hook off the tee. ... In fairness that could also be where my swing is at right now.  It's pretty spendy. ... If I really stop and think about it, I paid $450 for a new 3-wood. Granted it's a better performing 3-wood. But for me it's really a 3-wood replacement.
