The
V Grip Glove: Test and Review / June, 2002
Earlier
in the year GolfTest USA received requests from many golfers
for testing and reviews on golf gloves. One of the companies
we contacted was Vero Golf. They market a golf glove that
has the middle two fingers sewn together which the company
claims keeps the fingers properly aligned which results
in better aligned shots and an improved grip. (This glove
is not USGA approved). The manufacturer tells us that later
in the year they will be coming out with a standard model
glove that does not have the middle two fingers joined together.
We had
20 golfers use the V Grip Glove for ten rounds and then
we had them rate several criteria on a scale of 1 to 10
(with 10 being best). Following is the summary of the results.
(1)
Quality: Averaged a solid 8.5
(2) Appearance: was an excellent 9.0
(3) Durability: was a 8.0
(4) Comfort: averaged an 8.1
(5) Fit: scored an 8.0
(6) Improved Grip: averaged a 6.8
(7) Overall Rating: was a good 8.1
Following
are some comments made by the golfers who used the V Grip
Glove: ¨
- "This
glove is cool and comfortable".
- "The
joined fingers provided a better grip and helped position
the club properly in my hands".
-
"This glove has outlasted any glove I have used in the
past".
-
"I really don't see the need for the conjoined fingers".
-
"It really helped me swing through the ball".
After
reviewing the test results GolfTest USA feels that the V
Grip Glove is a quality glove whose appearance, fit, and
durability makes this a glove that golfers will find to
be a good value.
GolfTest
USA gives the V Grip Glove a Birdie rating.
