Glove review

Ok, since i have been playing during the summer on a league and some tournaments, it tends to get kinda HOT!!!!! expecially the past week or so.

And after i have been playing for a while my hands get kinda sweaty and sticky, even after washing them and using baby powder.

So tonight i was about to buy a glove, but a friend had one, that he didnt use anymore, and it fit my hand, so after practicing with it, for a few games it felt nice.

I think my stroke even loosen'd up because i didnt have to worry about the shaft sticking during a stroke.

Even after warming up and playing my league match, with the glove, i didnt have a single problem with the shaft sticking during a stroke. And this was while i began sweating too.

And yes i did win my match too. And of course the guy i was playing threw a Michael Jackson joke my way too, and I turned around and beat him 5-3.

I only wish i had began to use a glove along time ago.

If anyone has a problem with sweaty hands, try a glove, it feels a bit weird at first but works wonders.

Hello Guy's and Gals.

I import gloves made to my specks from South Korea.

I have run the eBay Market for gloves for the last Two years, no one can match my, or the quality of my products.

The Gloves are a Nylon Spandex cotton mix and will wear as good or better than anything on the Market today.

I sell my Gloves for $5.50 ea, 5 for $20.50 or 10 for 37.50 shipping included.

Are there sizes?

The gloves are one size fits all, unless you are extra small or extra extra large the glove will fit fine.

Thanks Craig

i wish theyd make one in flesh color


They should make a flesh-colored glove with huge realistic-looking boils on it - the whole thing so real-looking that everyone thinks it's your actual hand. Your opponent won't be able to take his eyes off your hideous hand. He may find it difficult to comfortably lay his own hand on the table knowing that your boil-laden hand has been all over the cloth. After you beat the guy you will become known as "The Big Boil", or something along those lines - but it'll be your opponents who do the slow boil as they see themselves getting beat by a guy with a series of festering boils on his bridge hand.

Many players look down on players with gloves, this would definately get you some action! :)

Wow, that's almost as disgusting as the thought of my using a glove. I'm impressed.
 
Good post Tommy Joe, i needed that laugh to start my day off. I would rather have wood on skin, but i am starting to like my glove. I think i didn't really wear it as people were made fun of who were wearing a glove and was taken to serious, which i was already taken to serious without one but i'll show them now LOL.
 
Well i think most people kinda chuckle at the crap Earl wears while shooting pool, but hey, if that works then good for him.

I dont think anyone laughs at Helena Thornfeldt when she wears a glove.

Honestly I like wearing the glove when i shoot, because when i start to sweat, i dont worry about my hand becomming sticky and the shaft not sliding properly.

Now that you guys mention'd that it would get me more action ( hopefully on the pool table ) It would be funny as hell to go and buy a pink glove to wear while gambling.

Take my word, Con Artist, getting an LOL is every bit as good as beating someone on the table. I love it. Thanks.

I have a penchant for finding the absurd in things, so I don't blame anyone for not taking me serious. But I do have several serious questions regarding the glove.

First, do famous players wear the glove strictly for endorsement purposes? We can't possibly know unless we ask them personally and manage to get an honest answer. As long as the glove doesn't hinder their shooting they're going to win some matches - so, does the glove aid their shooting or simply not get in the way of their already established ability?

My second question is one I brought up in another glove-related thread, and I'm serious: Can the glove add thickness to thin fingers, allowing the player to continue using a thin shaft instead of a thick one? I always liked the feel of a thicker shaft, probably because I have thin fingers. But the thicker shaft also means a thicker farrow and thus a thicker tip, which means you can't work the cue ball as well. I'm wondering how the glove applies in that regard. My question may sound nuts, but I'm serious. Now maybe you're saying, "If you really care so much, why not buy a glove and find out for yourself?" Well, I don't play anymore, and I'm not about to buy a glove just to answer a silly little question.

One final glove-related comment: Imagine beating someone and getting stiffed for the cash. You're not a real hard-ass so you don't get rough about it. You just say, "Look, if you don't have the money, how about giving me your stick?" And the guy says, "Oh, no way can I give up my stick. How about my glove? I'll let you have my glove." ........ Maybe that's what it will come down to eventually, people playing for each other's gloves, until finally the guy with the most gloves on his wall is the hands-down winner.
