referring now to fig1 of the drawings , a golf glove 10 can be seen having a palm portion 11 , a plurality of finger portions 12 - 15 and a thumb portion 16 extending therefrom . the glove 10 has a pair of material inserts 17 and 18 that are positioned on the finger portion 12 and respective fingers 13 , 14 , and 15 and palm 11 respectively . as noted , the insert 18 extends transversely across the fingers 13 , 14 and 15 in an aligned angular inclination to one another and extends beyond the respective fingers onto the palm portion 11 and progressively below the finger portions as illustrated at 11 a , 11 b and 11 c . the inserts 17 and 18 are preferably made of synthetic material of a contrasting color and non - slip increased frictional co - efficient material in relation to the surrounding glove material which will be well known to those skilled in the art . a handle portion 20 of a golf club is shown in broken lines , as noted above , in the glove 10 overlying the finger insert 17 and the finger portions of the insert 18 so as to be in abutting overlapping position with the handle portion 20 . it will be evident from the above description that a true preferred golf grip is achieved by the distinctive angular alignment over the hereinbefore described inserts 17 and 18 as seen in fig2 of the drawings . referring now to fig3 of the drawings , the glove 10 of the invention is shown on its back hand portion 21 . the glove 10 has an adjustable closing flap 22 and integral elastic band insert 23 inwardly of its open end at 24 . a plurality of indicator markers 26 and 27 are positioned below the respective finger portions 12 and 13 in spaced relation to one another overlying a knuckle engagement area generally indicated at 28 of the glove 10 . an indicator marker 25 shown in broken lines is a visual indicator for use with some golfers . the indicator markers 25 , 26 and 27 are preferably of a rectangular configuration of a similar dimensional size . it will be seen that the markers 25 , 26 and 27 form a transverse longitudinal alignment band in which portions of same are viewable dependent on the axial rotation of the glove by the golfer during the grip positioning process . thus it will be seen that once the proper grip on the golf club is achieved , as seen in fig4 of the drawings , that the visualization of the markers 26 and 27 will indicate the relative “ strength ” i . e . nature of the grip from the user &# 39 ; s perspective . specifically , if all of the markers are visible , the user has achieved a strong grip by effectively rotating of the hand . conversely , if only the marker 27 is visible as seen in fig4 of the drawings , then you have what is characterized as a “ weak ” grip . a pair of alignment angle markers 30 and 31 are positioned respectively on the base of the thumb portion 16 , as best seen in fig3 of the drawings , and on the side of the palm portion 11 below the finger portion 12 as best seen in fig1 of the drawings . an arrow indicator 19 extends from the junction of the markers 30 and 31 . each of the respective markers 30 and 31 are shaped as a portion of a triangular arrow so that when brought together as when gripping the club 32 define a visual alignment arrow indicator 33 that with the indicator arrow 19 ideally should point towards the right eye of a right handed user and to the left eye on a left handed glove user ( not shown ), as best seen in fig4 and 5 of the drawings in which the user &# 39 ; s hand 29 is illustrated in broken lines within the glove 10 . the inserts 17 and 18 are preferably secured to the glove &# 39 ; s perspective finger and palm portions by replacing selective glove material in the defined areas by sewing or similar fabric adjoining techniques common to glove construction . referring to fig1 and 4 of the drawings , an inter - grip glove interengagement line marker 34 can be seen extending along the seam line of the thumb portion 16 so as to provide an inter - glove positional relationship wherein the glove &# 39 ; s position to the user &# 39 ; s non - gloved hand ( not shown ) is indicated by alignment with an anatomical palm fold “ life line ” well known to those skilled in the art . alternately , the defined areas 17 , 18 and hereinbefore described markers 25 , 26 , 27 , 30 , 31 , 34 and 19 can be imprinted on the surface of the glove in a contrasting color to that of the glove using conventional fabric printing techniques as are well known and understood by those skilled in the art . additionally , the fabric printing can impart a different textured surface which will define an increased frictional grip surfaces . referring now to fig6 of the drawings , an alternate golf glove 40 can be seen having a palm portion 41 , a plurality of finger portions 42 - 45 and a thumb portion 46 extending therefrom . the glove 41 has a pair of material inserts 47 and 48 that are positioned on the finger portion 42 and respective fingers 43 , 44 , and 45 and the palm 41 respectively . as noted , the insert 48 extends transversely across the fingers 43 , 44 , and 45 in an aligned angular inclination to one another and extends beyond the respective fingers onto the palm portion 41 and progressively below the finger portions as illustrated at 43 a , 44 b and 45 a which extend substantially onto the palm portion 41 at 49 along the glove seams 50 . the inserts 47 and 48 are preferably made of synthetic material of a contrasting color in relation to the surrounding glove material . a handle portion 51 of a golf club 52 is shown in broken lines overlying the finger insert 47 and the finger portion of the insert 48 so as to be in abutting overlapped position with the handle portion 51 . it will be evident from the above description that a true preferred golf grip is achieved by the distinctive angular alignment over the hereinbefore - described inserts 47 and 48 . referring now to fig7 & amp ; 8 of the drawings , the alternate glove 40 is shown on its backhand portion 52 . the alternate glove 40 has a pair of indicator markers 53 and 54 that are positioned below the respective finger portions 42 and 43 in spaced relation to one another overlying a knuckle engagement area generally indicated at 55 . the indicator markers 53 and 54 are preferably of a rectangular configuration of similar dimensional size . a pair of alignment angle markers 55 and 56 are positioned respectively on the base of the thumb portion 46 as best seen in fig7 of the drawings and on one size of the palm portion 11 extending from the base of the thumb portion 46 at 57 to the base of the finger portion at 58 . each of the respective markers 55 and 56 are shaped as a portion of a triangular arrow and are of dissimilar dimensions so that when brought together as when gripping the club 52 will define an enlarged visual alignment arrow indicator which ideally should point towards the right eye of a right handed user and to the left eye of a left handed user , ( not shown ) as best seen in fig8 of the drawings . it will thus be seen that an improved version of a golf glove has been illustrated and described and it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various changes and modifications may be made therein without departing from the spirit of the invention .
a golf glove and method of using same wherein the glove has alignment and gripping inserts that provide golf club grip alignment for an improved grip . the inserts define a preferred golf club grip position by illustrating a club position within the user &# 39 ; s hand on the glove . additional insert markers define grip position attributes visually during use and glove interengagement position . the alignment and gripping inserts are of contrasting color to the glove &# 39 ; s primary material to define a sure grip position system for the golfer assuring proper club hand placement .
