Did you see these guys with 10 tennis gloves hanging from the handle of their gym bag? Are you one of them? I used to be but not anymore. I only use one sweat proof batting glove no matter how many games I play and I never lose my grip.
A special glove designed just for tennis? No, it’s a golf glove, but not an ordinary golf glove. It’s one made for playing in the rain. All major golf manufacturers make a glove designed for wet weather. Think about it…sweat is pretty much wet like rain..
Worried that your buddies will think you’re either cheap or scrawny? I’m sure you can find flashy, expensive gloves that really look like they mean business for racquetball. Perhaps your opponent will be so impressed with your equipment that he will be intimidated. Isn’t that why you bought that expensive racket?
Well, I hope not! I think you use the racquet I’m using because it gives you the best performance for the price and it works for your game. Don’t be afraid to think a little outside the box when choosing a sweat resistant tennis glove. Even if it is made for golf, it may still be the best glove for gripping the club.
At first I thought it was too flimsy and probably wouldn’t last long but it’s not. Since it is made to be hydrated, it is also easier to maintain. All I do is rinse it after each use and maybe throw it in the washing machine once in a while when I think about it.
Be careful with the order though. If you tell a golf manufacturer you are “right handed”, they can assume you are a right handed golfer and will send you a golf glove for your left hand.
