I've wondering lately if I should try dropping the glove when playing golf. Just wanted to see how many in here that use a glove.

I wear a glove but not when pitching, chipping and bunker shots as I like more feel.

I use the glove on everything except putting. Having a glove on the putter grip just feels all wrong, I can't even get a good, comfortable grip on the club.

No glove here. I have nothing against them other than being a waste of money for me - there was no discernable performance difference so why wear one?

Ive tried using a glove at the range, ive given away 2-3 of them that i ceceived as gifts. I just cant get a good feel of the club with a glove on, just doesnt feel right, never actually played a round using one.

I wear one. I played a couple of years without one, but it tore my hands up too much. I grip the club too tight and use cords so no glove hurts me.

If I could hit every shot near the sweet spot, I wouldn't bother with a glove. But for the wild misses (which I make plenty of), it hurts a lot less with a glove.

    • Do you have examples of exceptional scores versus their established handicap indexes?
    • Day 539, April 23, 2024 Mirror work once again. When I get back to swings, I'll just do it A. LOT.
    • A bit of background. The Southern California Golf Association (SCGA) runs an annual event known as "Team Play." It is a wildly popular match play competition where Men's Clubs across the region put together teams of 20+ golfers together to compete against other clubs in a 16 vs. 16 match. In any given year, approximately 80-100 clubs will participate. Each club is grouped into "pods" of 4, and will play 6 total matches - one home and one away match against the other 3 clubs. The winning club from each pod advances to the Team Play Playoffs - a single elimination format - until a winner is crowned.  Antelope Valley Country Club just advanced to the championship match for the 3rd consecutive year. They won the championship in both 2022 and 2023.  Based on my review of the match history from the past 3 years (linked below), they have won 21 consecutive team matches. Keep in mind, these are handicapped matches, so this is not just a case where a group of sticks bands together to dominate the poor amateurs other SoCal clubs. Even if these guys are grinders who never quit, play their best under pressure and routinely putt the lights out, the law of averages still say that a streak of that nature is mathematically impossible.  Is there any plausible explanation beyond institutionalized sandbagging throughout the club?

    • Day 3- Practiced putting for 20 minutes. 
    • Interesting that Scottie is #10 on the all time money list and he's been on the PGAT for 4 years. Of course, purses are bigger now, but  neat to look at non-the-less.  The list of top 18 money winners in PGA Tour history has plenty of surprises This list is updated through the 2024 RBC Heritage. To add, Scottie won 4.5 million at the Players, Jack played 44 seasons and won a little of 5 million on course.
