The best golf glove is a simple question with multiple answers. The right glove for you will depend on preferences and likely gender. The best glove for a man who prefers all Cabretta leather will be different than a woman who likes breathable performance fabrics. Let’s look at a few options and you can decide the best for you.

The Best Men’s Performance Golf Glove

MIZUNO ELITE

Performance gloves typically have a fine line between quality and durability. Premium materials tend to wear faster in spots. The Mizuno Elite line balances these two better than any other glove tested. Soft-fitted leather provides excellent feel and grip while mesh material across the knuckles improves the fit. It’s the best performance golf glove available.

A few years many golfers might not have never seen a Vice ball if they stumbled across one in the woods on their local course. Those days are long gone as Vice is now a known and respected brand. Like the major OEMs, Vice offers a full line of balls suited to a variety of golfers. Since you can’t pick up a sleeve to try in the pro shop, however, how will you know what ball is best for you? Here, we’ll look at the best Vice golf ball for a number of different types of player.

BEST VICE GOLF BALL FOR HIGH SPEED SWINGS

Vice Pro Plus

The Vice Pro Plus golf ball has 4-Piece construction with a cast urethane cover. Vice designed the ball to provide the lower launch and spin desired by many fast swingers. MyGolfSpy ball testing also showed the Pro Plus to be a strong performer with irons. It finished within the top 10 for distance with high speed iron swings, but with a manageable spin number to hold greens. That’s what makes the Pro Plus the best Vice golf ball for high speed swings.

BEST VICE GOLF BALL FOR MEDIUM SPEED SWINGS

Vice Pro

For golfers who sit in the center of the bell curve for speed, spin, and ability, the Vice Pro is an all-around strong performer. The three-piece design, mid-firm compression, and cast urethane cover hit the mark for distance, green-side spin, and feel. While it might not lead the pack in any particular area, it also doesn’t fall behind. With no need to compromise, the Pro is the best Vice golf ball for medium swing speeds.

Fujikura Ventus TR is the encore to the shaft manufacturers uber-successful Ventus family of shafts.

Ventus was the most played driver and wood shaft on the PGA TOUR during the 2020-21 season. It also found favor with boutique club fitters and as an in-line custom option through equipment brands.

And though I don’t love it, the made-for, non-VeleCore Ventus shaft serving as a stock option in the TaylorMade SIM2 and Stealth releases says something about the popularity of Ventus. Namely, that there’s a clear value in leveraging the Ventus name, even if one might label the practice somewhat dubious.

That aside, Ventus’s full-length pitch 70-ton fibers made us consider whether a shaft could improve the forgiveness of the clubhead. Maybe it didn’t shift the entire paradigm but Ventus started a conversation with golfers that involved looking at the entire club as a system, rather than a series of components.
