Abstract: |
A golf glove for the hand of the user placed highest on the club comprising backside panels inlcuding a grip indicator panel area defined as the area covering the backside of the user's little and ring fingers down to the tip and also covering the portion of the backside of the body of the user's hand between the outside edge of the hand opposite the thumb and a line substantially parallel to outside edge intersecting the juncture between the ring and middle fingers. The indicator panel area is visually distinct from the remaining areas of the glove, so as to give the user an indication of the orientation of the grip on the club by the visibility of any portion of the indicator panel area as the user addresses a golf ball in preparation to strike it.
