Bionic Gloves

Posted by: user103445 | Mon 30th Jun 2008 22:44 | Last Reply

I have been trying this new sculptured glove for Long Drive, but at the moment the jury is out. Is it legal for golf, and has anyone else tried it?

Is is an expensive glove and the most that one can get off the usual competitive price is £1.00, and such is not on eBay. I won't mention the seller.

One thing  clear is that it wears extremely well and is made of top quality car. leather. Possibly the best wearing glove that I have tested for dry conditions.

It does however make one's hand sweat more than normal due to the sculptured padding.

So far, after a few hundred hits, I have not noticed any grip or hitting improvement, but having said that nor am I aware that the padding is proving to be a nuisance. I cannot test it properly yet as my swing in currently not properly grooved.

I am convinced about the quality materials, but remain to be convinced that the design is necessary.

I personally consider that the type of grip glued onto one's club to be far more important that a bit of glove padding. But, I may change my mind after further testing.

Anyone got any views after personally testing this latest piece of golf science?

i dont wish to be the fly in the oitment but....

 to ensure that all areas of a test are equally surely you would need a robotic arm of some type no?

perhaps and this is deffo the one i believe is the right assumptiion the glove is a confidence boost and we all know that is what makes us play better after all!!

Paul keep up the good work and Viper good luck in the LD championsships!
