 A year ago I played in an open tournie in shocking weather and couldnt hit the ball because I couldnt grip my clubs in the wet. I posted here at GM asking for recommendations and several posters said use the Nomis gloves. I bought a pair after quite a search for them on the net. They have sat in the boot of my car unused as I dont play in the rain. Until last Sunday when I was playing in an open tournie and the weather was terrible, driving rain, howling wind. I wore the Nomis gloves from the start and they are simply AMAZING! I used my skinny bag and all my grips were drenched within 20 mins, but I was gripping them fine, in fact maybe even a better grip than with a normal glove in dry conditions. My playing companions couldn't believe it, and said they were gonna get some. Anyway, a thanks to those who recommended the Nomis gloves. And if you ever play in the rain get a pair of them, best £30 or so you'll spend on your golf equipment.

Although i dont have the type, wet weather gloves are just that good that any golfer who plays in the rain should own a pair and are seriously missing out As Creo points out you dont have to worry about keeping your grips and glove/hand dry let them get drenched and the glove actually performs better just makes playing in the rain so much easier and therefore more enjoyable.

Come ON Creo Dont be a selfish old spoilsport. Tell us where you bought them!

Do they work as well in the dry? I.e. could you just have one glove for wet & dry

 £30?? The prices I have seen are in the £13 range (newitts.com)

£30?? The prices I have seen are in the £13 range (newitts.com) They are priced/sold in singles. Creo uses uses 2 gloves in the wet.

 Played in a compitition in heavy rain,and the guy I was drawn with wore a pair of bright yellow Marigolds and swore they were the best pair of wet weather gloves he'd worn,reasoning that they are designed to hold wet plates so should be able to cope with a golf club grip. Shouldn't think they would be any kind of subsitute for a pair of Nomis,but might be handy as a stop gap.

I use an fj lefthand and slazenger right. I think they both cost under a tenner and they work perfectly. Played early today in the peeing rain, got soaked, but had no trouble gripping. And yes, they do seem to work ok in the dry, although I use a leather for that.

I understand now. I might buy one of these Nomis gloves. I've never had a wet weather glove.

 you could also try mac wets they are pretty good. Normally 20 quid including p+p direct form MacWet. Last year, i played in a corporate golf day, the clubs were going further than the balls, except myself with a trusty pair of these.

Guys, is this the glove? £9.99 plus £5 pp. I am sure I can find something else for an extra £10/£15 to make it up to £25 for free pp. 
|
|
Yes, but they are very limited in the selection at direct golf 
|
|
Callaways work perfectly and are £14 for a pair. JJB sports or any golf outlet. If i clenched my fists, water was dripping out, but I had the best grip ever!!

 I have just bought a pair of Ogre 3M G-reptile faced wet weather gloves from the pro shop - on sale two for a tenner (previously £9-99 each) Have never bothered wearing a pair of proper golf gloves in the wet before (only Marigolds) but after the soaking at Staverton am prepared to try anything once.

Boa - I really cant recall where I got them from, it was online, but I cant remember what I was doing yesterday so where I ordered something from over a year ago just aint gonna happen! Birdie Boy - yep thats them, but I do think a pair is better than a single, the ungloved hand will slip all over the place. The first time you have to wear them in earnest you will be pleased you bought a pair.
