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.

    • Day 76 - Pretty sore today, so I opted for putting over my Stack session. Primary focus was on starting line, as my putting has been pretty poor this year. 
    • Been a bit of delay in updates but I needed to come back east as my mom's health has taken a serious turn for the worse. In a 3 day span we learned she had a tumor to she has stage 4 cancer and stopped eating and drinking for the most part. She has had a rough 3 months but certainly didn't think we'd be at the point of setting up hospice for her. My mom was never into any sports really other than following the Red Sox because my dad was a big fan. She always cared about what we were involved in including asking about how golf went.  I have kept up with my 5 minutes of daily practice and will go to the gym here in NH tomorrow morning. Despite the somber nature of this trip my family has commented more than a few times about my weight loss so it's important to me to keep it up. I know my mom always wanted us happy in whatever we did so I'll continue with my fitness journey keeping that in mind. 
    • Day 109- Putting drills on a putting green for 20 minutes. 
    • Day 252: did a stack session. Did some slow rehearsal swings during breaks. 
    • Day 82: 3/18/24 Tried a Stack session but could not certify my warmup. Finished with indoor chips and putting.
