You could try rain gloves. They work for JB Holmes.

I was at a demo day on Sunday and the rep from Brudgestone saw that i had two gloves with me. He asked why - I told him I have sweaty hands. He gave me a Bridgestone Inner Edge golf to try. So far so good. I have usd it at the range the last two days and it works great for sweaty hands. You don't get the feel of other gloves, but it is holding up way better than any of my other gloves. I think I will continue to use it on the range, but probably will not play rounds with it. Give it a try.

Is this a synthetic glove?, also how is the sizing compared to other manufacturers?. I, too, have the sweaty hands issue, it drives me nuts!!

You might also try Fit 39.

Any of you "sweaty hands" guys wearing a glove on each hand? I find I have hell with my right hand slipping on the grip periodically.

The "Tite Grip" grip control formula is awesome!!!

I know it is not a glove, but it adds quite a bit of stickiness to the grip and you really shouldn't have a problem with your hands feeling like they are going to slip off. I also switched to the new decade multi compound grips and haven't had the same problems as I did in the past. The other thing that I tried and worked a little was rock climbing powder, it dries your hands out nicely and has just a bit of tack to it, a little goes along way.

I think it is synthetic - I am pretty sure Bridgestone has it on there website. I normally wear an XL Cadet, but they did not have that so I tried the L. The L definitely fits.

I just got my inner edge glove. It is definitely synthetic. Bridgestone's proprietary material, plus some stretchy stuff in various places. The glove is hexacomb patterned inside and out., It is supposed to grip better when moist.
Sizing is accurate, I think other brands tend to run big.

Had someone recommend this to me several years ago. I thought he was nuts. But, mid-summer that year I gave it a try.
Get a can of Arrid XX Dry Spray Anti-Perspirant and spray it on both hands then put on your glove.
Might have to do it at the turn also.
Worked pretty good for me.
Personally, I don't like non-cabretta golf gloves. So, needed something to help on the really humid days.
I also change gloves a couple of time each 9.

easiest thing to do:

go to your local sporting goods store, wander into the baseball section and pick up a rosin bag. pat it on your grips before you hit, and they will be dry and tacky. the rosin wipes off really easily after each round. (have to rinse each grip after every round, you dont want build up)
