Golf Gloves

[EightBlue]

Does anyway have any golf gloves that they really like? I have probably tried every glove out there and they either 1) get a hole after 2 weeks or 2) don't give me the proper feel on the club..

I have tried ALOT of gloves and they all seem to rip after a few rounds,... Mine ALWAYS rip at the middle of my index finger. drives me nuts..as for the feel, I have used quite a few that were just fine.
Luckily , we have a liquidation store by our house and whenever they get gloves I buy all they got since they are usually only $3.00 .. I am using Callaways right now since i have 4 of them and they seem to be really good on fit & feel, but after 4 rounds, the index finger is ripping. But I have a Max Fli & Taylor made also that I need to try out.

I absolutely love FootJoy Stasof. When it rips on me, it is only on the outside palm, never in the fingers.

I went through one every 2-3 weeks last year and went in and bought a calloway warbird glove, fully expecting to replace it after 2-3 weeks. It was a 2-pack deal and I can say that I still have a new glove in my bag and the first one has YET to have a single tear in it and I've been playing 4-5 months with it! I'll definitely NEVER buy another brand!!!!! VERY comfortable and feel as well!!

I think the one brand i have NOT tried yet has Been FootJoy since you said that..LOL... Bug, I have a 4 of the Callaway Warbird gloves in my bag...LOL..I will try one out this weekend.

I've used FootJoy WeatherSoft the past few years and love them. They are traditional looking (no fancy inlay or material patterns, etc.), seem quite durable, fit my hand nicely, provide plenty of grip and are reasonably priced.

I usually keep two on hand. One to use at the range and one to use when playing a round. Seems like I get a new range glove every month and a new course glove every month and a half.

I've been using the FootJoy WeatherSof and really like them. I bought a 3 pack for $21 at the PGA superstore a few months back. But they can be found for $17.95 for 2. Good price for a good feeling glove.

i like the nike dura soft glove....and i like it one size smaller so it isnt all bunchy in my hand. i have a calloway glove that is just wearing out which is durable and a good value. i dont really like how it feels, but it is actually my size so that might be why.

I also use the FootJoy WeatherSof. Depending on how much I play and range time, I go through one every other month or so. What I need to do is get one for practice and one for rounds because I think the range is what really kills my gloves. Also, it gets above 100F in the summer here and hand sweat also increases the wear and tear.

What I absolutely love about the glove, I think someone else mentioned, is it isn't fancy. Plain white with a FJ logo on the velcro. That's it.

I play the Mizuno gloves for under $12. I also try on the glove at the store since every glove feels a little different before I buy. If you are wearing out your glove with a hole your gripping too tight..

I've found the best deal for me is the Nike Elite Feel. I've tried to find a less expensive, synthetic glove but there's just no comparison to full cabretta leather gloves. The Elite Feel has an understated, classic look.

Appears gloves continue to move closer to the look of ROBO-GOLFER.

On a general level, and after a bit of personal experimentation, I will never go back to using an "all weather" synthetic-type glove. The minute I pulled on a full leather glove (a free Mizuno Retroflex that I got with my irons) I knew I'd been missing out. Sure they'll wear out quicker, but the level of feel/touch is worth it in my opinion.

Another vote for the FJ Weathersoft. It's a decent glove at a good price (under $10). It's durable and it really perfoms well when the weather turns hot.

One thing to add as well (I know it's been discussed here before); if you are ripping/wearing holes in your gloves after 2-3 weeks, your grip is almost for sure not correct. Usually you can tell by the type of wear you are getting exactly what is wrong and what you should change in your grip (can't remember specifics off the tope of my head).

I use the titliest glove. I can ususally get 2 or 3 weeks out of one before they become too stinky and dingy to wear.

Has anybody used the bridgestone? I got a couple of them this last weekend, and I am really excited to give them a go! I have been a FJ/ Soft Joy person forever, and when trying them on they all seemed like their quality was decreasing! The number of options from FJ is overwhelming lately... I used to be a huge fan, but i think i am going to make a switch for good, or until they make a glove i like again.
