I used these gloves last week playing Blackwolf Run in Kohler Wisconsin. It was a steady rain the whole round, however I never felt any loss of grip, in fact as the gloves got wetter, the better the grip. I squeezed my hands together and it was like wringing out a sponge. Alot of water came out of the gloves, but never had to change my grip or swing to compensate for the weather conditions. My partner on the other hand, went through 3 gloves (regular cabretta leather) and had a miserable round.
