Started playing with a glove again last year after about 20 years of going gloveless. I take it off to putt.

Always have except for putting.  I've tried a handful of times without and just didn't feel right to me, felt like I was prone to grip tighter.

I always wear a glove when playing and in the early season I wear a glove on both hands with tape on the pressure points until the calluses return.

I never take my glove off, not even to putt. I feel like the glove keeps my hand warm.

when I started I did,  but haven't worn a glove for over 15yrs now and can't see any reason why I will either, thankfully have never gotten a blister or blisters either,  when I played Mens softball I didn't wear a glove or gloves either...honestly don't think it matters 1 way or the other, personal preference imho and comfortably

I voted for "sometimes"...I wear a glove only when hitting my driver.  It's more routine/habit than anything else, although I do have a "rougher" grip (Pure DTX) on my driver than other clubs.

I do wear a glove when practicing.

Once you get used to glove-less it's freeing. One less thing to hassle with. I was always losing it or forgetting to buy a new one to replace a worn one.

I use old Taylor Made clubs from eBay and golf shops.

some of its mental, but using a glove can reduce your swing weight several points. I really do not notice it. My main reason for a glove is wear and tear on my palm edge and finger.

Yeah, two of them all the time. Hardly ever take them off during a round. Biggest reason for wearing two, is for skin protection from the sun, since we get over 300 days of sun shine out here. I carry 3 pair and change them out as needed during a round.

a long while back, I made a post (partly in jest), of wearing a pair of garden gloves. They actually felt pretty good,were not at all bulky, tops were cloth, bottoms rubberized. I caught a lot of flack, but you know, they were not half bad and a lot easier to pull on and off than regular golf gloves.

99c store.
