Alright, let’s talk about golf gloves. Specifically, whether you should wear them on both hands. I’ve been hitting the links for a while now, and I’ve experimented with a few different setups when it comes to gloves. I mean there are so many options about gloves, just one or both? So I decide to try them and see what will happen.
Start With One Glove
Started with the usual – just one glove. You know, the way most people do it. Typically, if you’re right-handed like me, you wear a glove on your left hand. And if you’re a lefty, you wear it on your right hand. That’s the standard, and that’s what I did for a long time. Then I went to play.
I played my rounds, practiced at the range, and you know what? It was fine. No big issues. My grip felt decent, and I didn’t have any major problems with my swing. But I couldn’t shake this feeling like something was missing. It’s not bad to just use one glove, but I want to try more.
Try on Both Hands
So, I thought, why not try wearing gloves on both hands? I remembered reading about some pro golfers, like Tommy Gainey, who always wear two gloves. He said his dad taught him that way, and it stuck. And I was inspired by Aaron Rai’s choice, who mentioned that he preferred the control and confidence that comes with wearing gloves on both hands.
I got myself a pair of gloves, one for each hand. First time I put them on, it felt a bit weird, I won’t lie. But I was curious to see how it would affect my game, so I went to try it on the golf course.
- First Impressions
My first few swings with two gloves were… interesting. I noticed right away that my grip felt different. More secure, maybe? It was like my hands were really locked in on the club. I played a few holes, trying to get a feel for it.
- The Adjustment Period
It took some getting used to, no doubt. I had to adjust my grip a little, and my swing felt a bit different at first. But the more I played, the more I started to like it. My shots felt more consistent, and I felt like I had more control over the club.
- The Results
After a few rounds with two gloves, I started to see some improvements in my game. My shots were going straighter, and I was hitting the ball more consistently. It wasn’t a huge difference, but it was noticeable. I felt more confident in my swing, and that made a big difference mentally.
Final Thoughts
So, after trying both setups, I’ve decided that I kinda like wearing gloves on both hands. It’s not for everyone, and it’s definitely a personal preference. But for me, it works. It gives me that extra grip and control that I was looking for. If you’re curious, I’d say give it a shot. You might be surprised at how it feels. At the end of the day, it’s all about what makes you feel comfortable and confident on the course. And for me, that’s two gloves.
That’s my experience with wearing golf gloves on both hands. It’s been an interesting experiment, and I’m glad I tried it. It’s not a game-changer, but it’s definitely made a positive impact on my game. So, if you’re thinking about it, go for it. You might just find that it works for you too.
