I'm surprised Earl has not tried playing with a 10 ounce glove on each hand with fingertip slots ,just so he can chalk the cue!

I've played with a Sir Joseph. The smoothness of stroke was only surpassed by the clean shaft even after hours of play.

The Unglove was delivered today. So far I like what I see: the minimalist approach is very appealing. I'll try it out tonight and report back.

I've used several brands, and found that the palms wore out fast. I tend to slide up to the cue ball. For what it's worth, went to Walmart and found some patches that you would use to patch a canvass tent (they are around 2 inches in diameter). Extremely sticky on the one side. Put one on the palm/heel of the Kamui glove I have now and been playing with it for around 6 months and palm is still great, and the patch is still there, stuck on good. Dang Kamui glove was expensive though!!!!!:eek:

I played with the Unglove and i really like it. At one point I went to wash my hands and realized I was still wearing it - it felt so natural that I had forgotten all about it. I'm definitely going to keep using it!

Yeah, I leave mine on, by mistake, all the time. Anyone that is thinking of getting the tan skintone color, better think again. It is UGLY after 50+ hours. And that's at home.

The thing I like the most about these, is that your palm is not covered. I've never liked any of the gloves, because I like to feel my palm on the table...... probably a little ocd kickin in....lol

I had the unglove for a while but on an open bridge it would catch my skin and that kind of annoyed me so I went back to a glove.

Also I noticed my predator glove isn’t wearing well at all. It has stayed tight to my hand. I wash it by hand like once a week but it’s starting to frey quickly. Molinari and kumai are still the best in my opinion.

cannot play with a regular glove, i lose all the feeling especially when cueing from the rail. the unglove is, like someone said, the best of two worlds. been using them for 4 years or so, three pairs, and they still hold up.
