Wear a golf glove on your non-dominant hand : right-handed golfers usually wear it on the left hand , and left-handed golfers on the right hand.

Quick rule

  • Right-handed golfer → left hand.
  • Left-handed golfer → right hand.
  • Some golfers wear gloves on both hands, but that’s less common.

Why that hand

The glove usually goes on the lead hand, which sits higher on the club and helps with grip control. That hand tends to need the most traction and blister protection.

Simple way to remember

If you swing right-handed, glove the left. If you swing left-handed, glove the right.

TL;DR: wear it on the hand opposite your dominant hand.
