Hi

Does anyone have the same problem?

I often get bruises from the knit of the golf glove; especially on my left index finger (I'm R handed).

Are there any gloves that have an index finger without knits? E.g. one piece without stitches and all that ... ?

Any recommendations?

Take care,

Navid

I think if you're bruising from a glove, your grip is way too strong and you should relax a bit. The only way I could imagine you having issues like that is if you were gripping the club too tight. Could it also be possible you're using a glove that is too small or too large? Remember that the perfect fit is achieved when you spread your fingers apart and flatten your palm (fingers extended) and you cannot pinch any of the glove on your palm. It should literally be like a comfortable second skin. Keep in mind they have Cadet sizes as well for people who have shorter fingers but wider hands.

Personally, I feel as if one should hold onto the club as if they were holding a baby's hand/wrist in terms of pressure.

The best glove I ever found is the FootJoy WeatherSof. The glove is very soft, well constructed, and the most comfortable glove I've ever used.

Thanks Spyder I followed your suggestion and it's better already. I also focus on distributing the pressure more evenly L/R. I've just ordered the FJ WeatherSof. From the pictures I can tell that the index finger is designed differently than the rest of the fingers. It also seems to address the issue I mentioned about being one piece instead of knitting together two sides.

No problem! Hopefully this helps you out a little bit and you like the glove as much as I do.

    • Day 18: 2026.01.20 Continuing work on arm raise during backswing. Starting to feel less weird, especially the slower I go. Looking like a busy week so might be the weekend before I can hit some balls.
    • It’s possible the graphite shaft has a small internal crack or a delamination. Tapping it and hearing a vibrating sound is usually a sign the shaft isn’t behaving as it should. Since the store wasn’t helpful, consider taking it to a club fitter or a pro shop that can check the shaft flex and integrity. If it’s defective, you might be able to get a replacement from the manufacturer.
    • It’s interesting how much a 3D system changes your understanding. Observing top players in full detail and realizing the trail knee shouldn’t fully extend is a great example of why being open to new info is so important. I like your approach: not trying to be “right,” but trying to teach correctly based on actual evidence. Makes sense why golfers would benefit from this perspective.
    • I would say both are equally not the best for golf. Is it better than nothing, sure.  Golf is an athletic motion. Professional golfers are doing a comprehensive workout routine focusing on strength, power, flexibility, stability. They might include some yoga into the routine. I would put both of them in the recovery bin, not golf enhancement bin.  If you want to increase swing speed, core strength, longevity in golf and life, then lift heavy weights.
