Thoughts on not using a glove?

I was at the range a few weeks ago and a guy flung a club about 30 yards out into the range and across about 6 bays. That's why I wear a glove. Plus I get blisters if I hit tons of balls in a row without one. Probably wouldn't have blister issue playing a round, but the grip issue would be there.

For full swing shots I feel like I gotta have a glove. Softer wedge shots and putting I take my glove off. Really just

I like to not wear a glove when it’s not super hot and sweaty out. Never really wear one for shots inside 100 yards.

I prefer a towel and no glove. If it’s just crazy hot/humid and I must use one I prefer a rain glove. They’re thinner and are made to be used when wet.

I used to hate wearing a glove. My hands are pretty callous so blisters were never a problem. But for some reason as I've gotten into my upper 30s, summer heat brings out the sweat more and the club starts slipping so I wear one out of grip necessity.

Sunday I did have my club slip out of my right hand on the range but I had the glove on my left hand so fortunately I didn't toss the club.

I go through about 4 to 5 gloves a round during the summer. I sweat so much I can't grip the club; it wants to slip out of my hands. I do take it off after every shot so as not to sweat too much in them. I don't use them on close wedge shots or putting. In the Fall, Winter, and Spring I don't use a glove. I get no blisters, and I feel as though I can better tell where the club face is, don't know why, it's just a feeling.

When using my driver or woods to tee off, I'll wear my glove. Irons, wedges, and putter the glove goes away. My irons came with new grips and I feel comfortable swinging without having to wear a glove. Been doing this for years at this point.

I use a product called Chalkless Grip Enhancer, you can buy it on Amazon Prime, it was originally designed for weightlifters. Works incredible.

I went about a decade without wearing a glove, just a heavy corded grip. Loved it and never blistered and didn't sweat too much even in the LA heat.

But the past year or so I had to go back to using a glove because my hands have started to sweat more.

Played in a tournament not long ago and lost my glove with a few holes to go and the first drive I took without a glove on I kept the club in my hand by the tip of my fingers. It was close to being 50 yards down the fairway.

Still go no gloves on my wedges and chipping around the green. Just get more feel out of it.

I’ve never worn one and I assume people don’t even notice.
