When it is drizzling or I'm sweating from heat, I wear rain gloves. Other than that, I never wear them.

I hate wearing gloves but I have the sweatiest hands. The warmer the weather, the more I'll wear a glove. If it's cool out... I like the feel without the glove.

I was told that I should try a glove so I went into the proshop and spent a whole $8 and I immeadiatly loosened my grip and began to hit the ball better. It helps me grip with out a squeeze. For $8-$10 it can't be too expensive to try it out.

IMHO, I think if you have "moist" hands, then gloves are important to have,

I agree with this. Sweaty palms are the only reason why I see it fit ot wear a glove. Luckily, mine stay nice and dry. Why people who wear a glove but don't wear two never registered with me either?

I just like the feel of the glove when I go to swing. Plus it makes me look like I semi- no what I'm doing on the course. Since I'm not talented, I want to at least LOOK like I am !

It'll feel like I'm going to let go of the club if I don't wear a glove. I never ever wear my glove putting, though. I think that takes the feel out my putting stroke.

My hands sweat too bad to not use a glove. Tiger goes through a couple gloves a round because his hands sweat so bad. I just don't feel comfortable enough with bare hands, it feels like the club is too loose. I do however, go with bare hands for wedge shots because it gives me a little more feel.

I don't wear a glove, so that answers that...

    • I think part of it is there hasn't been enough conclusive studies specific to golf regarding block studies. Maybe the full swing, you can't study it because it is too complicated and to some degree it will fall into variable or random.  
    • Going one step stiffer in the golf shaft, of the same make and model will have minor impact on the launch conditions. It can matter, it is a way to dial in some launch conditions if you are a few hundred RPM off or the angle isn't there. Same with moving weights around. A clubhead weights 200-220 grams. You are shifting a fraction of that to move the CG slightly. It can matter, again its more about fine tuning. As for grip size, this is more personal preference. Grip size doesn't have any impact on the swing out of personal preference.  You are going to spend hundreds of dollars for fine tuning. Which if you want, go for it. I am not sure what your level of play is, or what your goals in golf are.  In the end, the golf swing matters more than the equipment. If you want to go to that level of detail, go find a good golf club fitter. ChatGPT is going to surface scan reddit, golfwrx, and other popular websites for the answers. Basically, it is all opinionated gibberish at this point.

    • Well the first advice I would give is to look at your swing. If you are swing out to in, it may be difficult to fix your misses with club adjustments. They would only be a bandaid. I use midsize grips because I have long fingers and I feel I have more control with them. I also have tinkered with shaft length and swing weight. But I know when I miss it’s because my swing was off.
