Well my Taylor Made React2 glove has worn a hole in the index finger after about 3 games so it's time to replace. Anyone know how good the TM Burner gloves are, just like the color and hopefully the feel is like the React2. Looking for a low-priced long lasting glove that's not Nike this time. Would like one also that has the ball marker on the wrist since I always forget my marker somewhere without it.

Another vote for the Footjoy F3.

I've been looking to pick up some replacements for the ones I have, but all the shops where I happened to stop by only carry the SciFlex. I may switch over to those if I don't find a great deal on some F3s.

Titleist Players Glove is the best IMO, softest leather and best look

I played exclusively Footjoy Sta Softs for about 10+ years and then decided to try out a Dri Fit and it was a much better glove and has lasted me 20 rounds so far.

These gloves are the best that I've tried bar none:

Star Golf

I was playing with my Dad at his home course and the Nike glove I was wearing blew out in the middle of our round. He keeps extra gloves in the cart and I was out so he gave me one of these Star Gloves to use. I was skeptical at first since I normally stick with OEM stuff, but was quickly won over by the feel and fit of the glove.

That was over the July 4th holiday and I'm still playing with that same glove a dozen rounds later. Not a single rip or significant wear spot on it. Truly amazing! And better yet, these gloves are inexpensive - $11.95 + $3.50 shipping for two. They come in white or black (my personal favorite).

SciFlex for me, I normally have 3 in my bag at all times

Nike Dr-Fit feels great but is cheaply made. The first I bought I was on the range and I hit one ball and then I tugged on the end of the glove on my wrist and the glove ripped where I pulled it. It completely ripped right at the seams. I took it back and the store replaced it and the same thing happened again during my third round of wearing it. I went back to Foot Joy and will probably never stray again.

I picked other.

I ordered a couple Grip One Pro Tour Fit gloves from Golfworks last year because they had a buy one get one free sale. $15 glove, but for $7, I gave it a try. Probably the best feeling and best wearing glove I ever used. The only complaint I have is that it does not have a little snap-off button to mark your ball. Just ordered a couple Tour Fit Plus gloves because they have the button. Hope they are as good. These gloves last at least 3 times as long as Foot Joys.

Also bought a couple Grip One Weather Soft gloves from them last year on the same sale. Quite possibly the worst glove I have ever owned. Synthetic glove. Ad said lasts 10 times as long as a leather glove. Will never know, had to take it off after 4 holes. Felt like I was wearing a plastic bag. Maybe that is why it lasts so long.

I use the titleist players glove but that Fit 39 glove feels amazing, one kid i played with had it and it was insane when you gripped the club
ramseyjs
The TaylorMade R7 is fantastic. Very thin leather gives you great feel between your palm and the club.
dmac4g
I used to play only Foot-Joy, but switched to the Ping M-Fit last year. It is a great glove and I don't see me going back soon!
beachgrovejunior
for a practice glove, the etonic G-sok is amazing, way too thick to be a tournament round glove for me but quite comfy and very durable
lrgdawg
Titleist Perma-Soft for price, fit and wear.
retep
Just bought 3 fit39's based upon the crowd's responses here. Quite a tight fit. not sure, they might be a combo rubber/leather, definitely a good grip with them, and they threw in a small bag of tees with a couple of funky ones from japan, one of which looks like the middle section of an ice cream cone with a sponge in the middle. Anyway, they fit like a charm.

RETEP,

Could you please forward me the link to where you bought these.

Thanks.

I still like the TaylorMade React Glove, although I just purchased a couple of the new Burner Gloves.

Maxfli gloves have always fit me the best. The Revolution was great.
I also like the Etonic G>Sok.


Maxfli Revolution glove is the greatest glove have ever played! I am STILL playing them!!!! When the blew them out at Costco, I bought quite a few 2-packs. THEN they turned up at Copeland's Sports,a nd I bought quite a few more! I have enough gloves for several years. I only go through 2 or 3 gloves a year. I get GOOD use ut of them, but those gloves NEVER tear, and are TOUGH to wear through, but still soft!

3M Greptile glove is the best I've ever used.

USGA says you can use the 3M glove OR the 3M grips, but not both together. That's how good the grip is. Great when sweaty or after a light rain.


I have been a fan of the FJ StaSof for a long time....great glove, but I'm always open to something new and potentially better. I will try the 3M Greptile, after having read so many good things about it.
Charlie_Foxtrot
I was at the local toy store (golf store) today and I noticed that they had PING gloves, so I decided to try them on instead of just grabbing my standard FJ StaSoft.

I REALLY liked the fit and feel of the PING M-Fit glove. It seemed softer and more form fitting than the StaSoft. More like a "second skin", so I bought one. We'll see how it holds up. . .

Here's another vote for Fit 39!
dangaa
Where are you guys getting the Fit 39 gloves? would love to try a pair based on the feedback smile.gif
brooksmax
Honestly, I have yet to find one that I really like. I use the FJ WeatherSof because it best fits my hand, but I would rather use a glove of true cabretta leather if I could find one that fit right. The WeatherSof is a decent glove but they very so much from glove to glove on durability. I have used them for a few years now and one might last a couple months where the next one I get might only last a couple of rounds. They have a tendency to fall apart or separate.

I would prefer to use a leather glove from Titleist or FootJoy but I can't find one to fit right. If I get one that fits my palm right them the fingers are to long or to tight, and if I find one that fits my fingers right then the palm is to tight I guess I have some screwed up hands, but if anyone has any suggestions, I am all ears.

After doing a little research, was able to find them at my local driving range. Wow am i impressed with the tackiness of the grip. Ive been using Callaway Warbirds and in comparison the Fit 39 just blow them away. Two thumbs up from me!

Fit39s are a Japanese product but made in the Philippines. It is just hard to find my size locally (Philippines) but they are very very good.

I liked the Maxfli Revolution (very durable), Tried the TM Burner (flimsy), and am now using the new Adidas Zone AG (climalite) and I am liking it a lot,

nike dura feel



Same here. They used to come with a plastic snap case that kept them good forever but switched to a cardboard one. I'd be willing to bet they were lasting so long in the plastic one they weren't selling enough. I have a few of the plastic cases and always put the glove back in it. The black Durafeels last litererally 4 to 5 times longer than any other glove I've tried. I get 20 rounds and 30 range sessions out of 1. 3 or 4 last me all year, over 100 rounds. Not bad for an $8 glove.
IRON-Man
I'm gonna order that Fit 39 glove. Can't wait!
memphishorn
Honestly I've been using the Footjoy WeatherSoft for the last few years and I have seen a reason to change to a more expensive glove.

They also seem to last longer and stay softer than most of the old Footjoy all leather gloves I used to wear.

I have been wearing FJ gloves for years, recently tried the new for '08 Bridgestone Tour and it is now my fav. I find it just as soft and durable, but it fits my hand/fingers better and looks cool.

The one that lasts me the longest is Titleist Perma-Soft.

My club sells the bionic glove and people are going crazy about it. They suck. It is like putting 5 golf gloves on and hitting golf balls.

Titleist Players, next question. clapping.gif

Anything that does not have the spandex material between the fingers would be fine.
I really don't like the elastisity of the material. Last thing I need my golf glove to do is shifting during my swing.

At the beginning of the year I got a great deal on some TaylorMade React gloves and played those for about 3/4 of the year. After I wore those out I got a Footjoy Sciflex and I've enjoyed it.
jming
has anybody tried out the adidas gloves from tourspecgolf? they look pretty sweet.
bazzardl
cost a fortune, but last 5 times as long:

I might be crazy but I switch gloves all the time. It fits my mood the day I play.
I have about 5 Footjoy Sci Flex in different colors.
I have a Taylor Made R7, GREAT quality glove.
Titleist players is good too and just got a Ping M.
I also have Bionic for my arthritis but only use this in the range.

I prefer the FootJoy Sci Flex for fit and durability.
Ping is comfortable but the thumb moves on me, doesn't hold in place. It uis distracting to adjust it each swing.
Tieleist "players" is all around the best glove my money can buy.
Make sure it is PLAYERS edition. They have another very similar not not the real thing.
glennmaitland
for tournament play the titlaist players glove wins hands down but as i practise approx 8-10hours per week and the glove only lasts max 6-8rounds I would def not use it for practise. Get a more durable glove for practise, use the players glove in tourneys - best feel by a mile

Try the Mizuno Skintite glove, better feel and durablity than the Tity.

Footjoy take some beating for durability, however, try the Srixon Staff, less hard wearing but superb feel and good value.

I like the Titleist Players, but they do NOT last all that long....
CooGAR
Another vote for "other".

I use either Golfsmith's 100% Cabretta glove or MasterGrip's DynaGrip (also 100% cabretta).

I'm sure most of you have received junk mail from MasterGrip over the years. Well back in the early 90s, I decided to give them a shot. I find their glove to be every bit as good as the old Titleist cabrettas. And the price!! 2 gloves for $13.95! www.mggolf.com

The Golfsmith gloves are great too and last a long time in the sweaty, Houston conditions. These gloves are anywhere from $10-12 each, but every once in a while they will go on sale for $6.98. That's when I buy 8-10 of them.

I've tried lots of Gloves, but I keep going back to the FJ Sci Flex. It's not the perfect glove, but so far it's better then anything else I've tried.

FJ Sci Flex
Pros:
Perfect Fit for my Hand
Very Soft and tacky when new
Breathable, this glove keeps my hand the coolest of everything I've tried
Colors - I know not a real reason to buy a glove, but it's nice to have options
Cons:
Stretches out quickly. - It will stretch out to the point where I have the pull the Velcro enclosure way past it's normal point to keep it snug.


Titleist Players:
Pros:
Very Soft when new
Cons:
Couldn't find a size that perfectly fit my hand
Wore our pretty quickly* - This isn't from first hand experience - just what my friend told me


Nike Dri Fit
Pros:
Decently kept my hand cool
Cons:
The construction inside is pretty poor. In the fingers you can feel the excess material at the tips where the seam is. Very annoying feeling.
Just not very soft


Japan's Fit 39/ Excel-7 (not sure if these are the exact same glove, but look similar)
Very different glove. Mainly made from spandex, with an integrated leather material.
Pros:
Very comfortable snug fit
Tackiest glove I've every used. When it's hot this glove everything will stick to this glove, including coins in ur pocket.
Cons:
Hard to Find
Spandex soaks up sweat
sinamaxe
Golf training gloves were developed to help in the learning process of amateur and professional golfers. I prefer StaSof over SciFlex but I use SciFlex for practice purpose.
patvball
Check out the Under Armour golf gloves. I'm not a fan of their marketing and I like the Nike compression shirts better but their gloves are soft and comfortable!

FJ WeatherSof for YEARS now.
