WHY DOES GLOVE SIZE MATTER?

WHY DOES GLOVE SIZE MATTER?

A properly fitted glove is just as important as having the right clubs and the right golf ball. The glove is the direct point of contact with your club, and if it doesn’t fit quite right then your club could slip and cause your swing to come out less than ideal. A correct fit for your golf glove is an advantage to your golf game that should not be overlooked.

BENEFITS OF A GOLF GLOVE

Grip + Control

Grip + Control

Wearing a golf glove is not mandatory for playing golf, but it is definitely recommended. In a game that is won or lost by a matter of inches, golfers will take any advantage that they can get. We’re here to help you find the right glove, understand the benefits of wearing a glove, and help take some strokes off your game in the process.

A well-fitted golf glove will help to apply the right amount of pressure on your club, minimizing the likelihood that your hands will slip or that the club face will rotate. With additional grip, your swing can be more relaxed and confident at address.

Comfort + Protection

Comfort + Protection

A golf glove is typically worn on your “lead hand” – the hand that’s on top of the grip. If you’re a right-handed golfer, you should be wearing a glove on your left hand, and vice versa for left-handed golfers. Choosing the right type of glove and making sure that it fits well is fundamental to getting every benefit that a golf glove has to offer.

Taking hundreds of swings and gripping tightly can often result in potential blisters and callouses. A golf glove can greatly reduce the wear and tear on your hands and the likelihood of developing blisters. A golf glove that fits properly will be much more comfortable and effective.

Warmth + Dryness

Warmth + Dryness

If you happen to get caught in some less-than-ideal weather, golf gloves can help keep your hands dry and warm. Some gloves are specifically designed for colder weather, while others are better suited for wet rainy days.

TYPES OF GOLF GLOVES

  • Leather

    If you’re looking for a glove that offers a comfortable feel, durable material, and increased performance, you can’t go wrong with a cabretta leather golf glove. A leather golf glove is the most common choice for golfers of all skill levels.

  • Synthetic

    Synthetic golf gloves are lightweight, stretchy, and breathable. A synthetic glove is a great choice for warmer weather to keep your hands cool and also offer a great fit by contouring to the shape of your hand.

  • All-Weather

    For players who play in adverse conditions and want to be prepared for the worst, an all-weather golf glove offers superior protection against the elements. All-weather gloves are perfect for humid and moist conditions.

  • Hybrid

    Hybrid golf gloves combine the best of both leather and synthetic gloves to create a winning combination. The leather portion is often through the palm and fingers to enhance grip while the synthetic material is used in the joints to offer flexibility. The only downside of the hybrid gloves is that they are often more expensive – but definitely worth it.

  • Thermal

    Although many players might opt for not playing in colder weather or might not live in a climate where this could be an issue, but thermal golf gloves can help keep your hands warm during the coldest of golf rounds. The thick material helps maintain heat and keep your hands warm during the colder weather.
