How Do You Properly Wear Golf Gloves?

I often wonder if different weather conditions require different glove fits. Should I tighten them for rain or loosen them for heat? What do you think?

Good question! In rain, I suggest keeping them tight for grip, but in extreme heat, a looser fit can prevent them from sticking to your hands. It’s about balance!

Anyone else ever forget to take off their gloves before hitting the snack bar? Not a good look! Just remember, gloves come off when you’re not on the green!

To extend the lifespan of your golf gloves, always clean them after each use. A gentle hand wash with mild soap and water works best. Avoid materials that can damage the leather!

That’s great advice! I usually just toss mine in the washing machine. Should I avoid that?

Yes, definitely avoid the washing machine! It can wear out the material. Instead, air dry them flat to maintain their shape.

Store them in a cool, dry place and avoid extreme temperatures! You could also use glove trees to help them keep their form.

Don’t sleep on replacing your gloves! If you notice any thinning or loss of grip, it’s time for a new pair. Trust me, you’ll hit straighter shots!

How often should we be replacing them, then? I feel like I just got mine!

It really depends on how often you play. Generally, every 3-4 months is a good guideline if you’re playing regularly.

Wow, I had no idea! I’ve been using mine for over a year. Maybe it’s time to treat myself to a new pair, haha!

I hear you! I once kept my glove until it had holes. Just being reflective here, but it made me think about the little things that can impact performance.
