Last year, I used a Ram golf glove and it lasted all season. Finally this year I traded it for a Titleist full cabretta leather golf glove. But after only 6 weeks of play, I'm finding the glove has stretched a lot. And it no longer fits my hand. Does anyone have a quick fix for this? Or will I need to invest in another glove? :(

golf gloves will always stretch the more you use it....there's not really much you can do besides maybe wetting the glove and then blowdrying it or something....:confused:

haha...I think Mok's anwer is probably right on...but do you know what your Ram glove was made out of? Could be synthetic leather...its last longer than real leather...there's no quick fix to a ripped glove, just get a new one! haha...but if you find your gloves wearing at your thumbs or at the outside palm of your hand, it means you have an incorrect grip or you're gripping too tightly. Golf teachers use the wear of your gloves to see if you have a good grip or not. Look into Golf Digests October issue. There's an article in there about gloves wearing out.

Thanks for the tip Focker. My glove isn't ripped or wearing out. I actually don't have a tight grip. It has just stretched considerably probably due to extensive play this year. But I think I'll use Ego's suggestion and try a blowdryer. I'll let you know if it works.:)

Yay!!! I tried out this method of shrinking my golf glove with a hair dryer. You have to do it on a low heat setting. And hold it 6 inches from the golf. This actually worked. I have saved my golf for next season. :rofl:
