The new Caddy Daddy Talon Golf Glove is the company's first jaunt into the golf glove market, taking a giant leap from their golf bag origins. Boasting why the company calls a mixture of "cutting-edge" materials that provide a unique level of grip tackiness, the Talon Golf Glove looks -- and feels -- different from other gloves on the market. Will the Caddy Daddy Talon Golf Glove live up to its billing? I gave it a test run for a week to find out.

What's Different

On its surface, the Caddy Daddy Talon Golf Glove is exactly the same as every golf glove on the market. Let's be honest; there's not a whole lot you can do to "change" a golf glove. Furthermore, there's not much a glove can do to improve your scores or lower your handicap. While it is the main connection to your club, you still have to swing the darn thing.

That being stated, the main differentiating feature of the Talon Glove is an ultra-thin tack-fusion palm that is billed to offer optimal grip and feel. The best product to which I can compare the glove's palm tackiness is that of what a football wide receiver might wear. It's shiny, it's sticky, and it feels a little too balloon-like for my taste.

Still, the glove does offer a substantial amount of "stick" when paired with your golf club grip. So, in that respect, the Talon Glove delivers as advertised.

Why you should buy this product

Golf gloves are a dime a dozen, with every company promising a better fit, improved feel or some type of cooling material that freezes your hand or something. The Caddy Daddy Talon Golf Glove makes similar claims -- especially in the feel and grip arena.

If you are frustrated with your current golf glove because of grip slippage (heh) or just looking for something different, the Talon Glove won't steer you wrong. It does the job it's supposed to do... which, you know, is whatever a glove is supposed to do. Plus, at only $14.99 per glove, you can't really go wrong.

Why you should not buy this product

Some golfers are picky with how the club feels in their hands, and the Talon Glove definitely feels different from your traditional glove. This is not a glove for the player who has grown used to and trusts a more traditional model. It will only frustrate you for longer than you want to deal with, ultimately leading to a compromise in feel if you want to stick with it.
