Take it off. It's just something I've always done.

Lazy dude here. Leave it on unless I have time to actually think about taking it off.

So the glove always comes off to putt, except...when having horrible round and I'm so disgusted I'll leave it on just to change something up

I gotta let the glove dry.  It is too hot/humid here in NC in the summer.  I also have better feel without it...

Same here.

I sweat like a pig that knows he's dinner, so I usually have 2 or 3 gloves going during a round on hot days. I take it off to putt to give the glove and my hand the opportunity to dry out a bit.

I take mine off - unless I forget.

But I prefer the feel without it on

I always take my glove off to putt and chip.  I feel like it gives me a little better feel.

While growing up playing in sunny Kansas I always had a horrible "farmers tan", the last thing I wanted was a butt white left hand to go along with the rest of my clothed area's.  I got in the habit of taking the glove off between all shots that required any real walk.  That habit continues today.... along with heavy sunscreen.

I take mine off to putt. I also take my glove off between every shot when I'm walking. Something about walking the course and feeling the wind/air on one hand and not on the other strikes me as strange, so I remove it. When riding I don't have as much time so I usually don't.

I was a "no" but after a couple rounds this year, I'm changing to a "yes". I think all that time putting on my carpet this winter got me used to putting without a glove. It feels weird to me now.
