About Austin Kirby Co.

Here are just a few comments from the Pro's about the Kirby Glove:



"It was Saturday, May 29, 1999 in St. Andrews, Scotland.  As I arrived for my tee time at 7:10 AM, the wind was howling, it was raining and the temperature was 45 degrees.  I had been using the Kirby Glove on all my clubs for several weeks; however, I was still using a hand glove for woods and long irons. On the third hole I looked in my bag for a dry glove and found everything was drenched.  The two fellas that began the round with us had surrendered on hole 13.  The rain suits were about 50% effective and so was my swing.  The only thing that was optimum was my grip.  Since the 3rd hole my grip had never slipped and the only glove I was utilizing was the Kirby Glove.   I had even purchased two pairs of 'wet gloves', prior to the trip...a waste of money.  I played my best round of the trip, actually improving my four shots an earlier round on the Old Course where I played in sunshine two days before. Simply put...the Kirby Glove was the only reason I could finish that round."

Love the grips. I played yesterday, after work in the
90 degree heat - walking and sweating and never had to think about my hands slipping off the club! That is an unusual occurance for me. I have a problem playing in the summer just for that very reason. I have even stooped down to using a Bowling "rosin" bag to keep my hands dry (which still didn't work very well). Now, I don't have to think about it and I can concentrate on my swing.

Thanks for your interest in my use of your product. I have the Kirby Glove on the 2 putters that I use. The feel of the Kirby Glove is like no other in the industry. I will never putt with anything but a putter with the Kirby Glove. The Best!
Torrey Viger


Having used your product for a couple of months I can honestly say they are the best thing since sliced bread! Very comfortable, nice looking and durable. With as wet a spring we had here in the Mid-Atlantic region, the Kirby Glove thus far into the season, has received a real workout.

"Just wanted to send a note to tell you how happy I am with your Kirby Gloves. This past weekend (August 11-13) was our three day club championship played in Houston, TX. in typical Houston weather.  Temperatures were in the upper 90's with the requisite gulf coast humidity making golf gloves and normal grips useless in short order. Those of us with your Kirby Gloves played like it was a spring day.  Always tacky, never slippery, poor shots could only be blamed on poor swing mechanics not slippery grips.  This was clearly the most extreme conditions and your product met the test.

The other benefit I've noticed in the year I've used the Kirby Glove is that the increased grip size helps my minor arthritis in my right hand. Keep up the great work, and good luck with your Kirby Gloves. I'll never buy another golf glove again!."

"I've been using the Kirby Glove for more than 18 months. It's become an important part of my golf equipment.  I can't imagine ever playing without it! Unlike playing with conventional leather golf gloves, the Kirby Glovegives me consistant 'feel' every time out.  Plus, I don't have to worry about sweaty or wet gloves.  They (Kirby Gloves)  hold up well, but if they do need to be replaced it can be done in minutes - on the spot!  For me, the Kriby Glove is a 'must have' item."
Butch Kirby, 2 Handicap



"Last year while taking a golf vacation to remember, the Kirby Glove saved a tremendous round of golf.  The course was Waterville in the most southern tip of Ireland.  Playing well above my norm and scoring an unbelievable eagle on a par five, the rains started between holes 13 to 14.  The golf there as most know is walking; thus, a dash to the club house is not available to stay dry. We toughed it out and finished.  While my playing partners struggled with slippery grips, I hung on with the aid of the Kirby Glove to score a 78 at this most impressive course in difficult conditions. Even though an unfortunate family illness shortened our trip, thanks to the "Glove" I have a wonderful memory during a great vacation in Ireland."

"I have been using the Kirby Gloves for over two years.  I am the owner of the Kirby Glove and realize the hand glove has been around a long time and will continue to be useful to a lot of golfers.  The Kirby Glove offers an option to those players who prefer not to use a hand glove.  I used a hand glove for years and was successful as a golfer and also as a Teaching Professional.   I have students who use a hand glove and students who use the Kirby Glove.  Golf is a very mental game - it is a game of 'feel'.  The extra feel I get with the skin to skin between both hands is why I prefer not to use the hand glove.  Plus, the hand glove has always been a little distracting to me when I did not get a good 'fit'.  Not to mention, when the hand glove got wet it was a disaster.  However, the Kirby Glove gets better as it gets wet.  With the hand glove, I  also had the tendency to 'over grip' the club.   In the past I would always take off the hand glove as I got near the green.   That extra feel, with skin to skin, made me more successful around the green.   Now I get that extra feel with all my clubs.  At 64 years old, I'm not the longest player in my group, but I believe I have the most 'feel' with all of my clubs.   I recommend that all players try the Kirby Glove and give it a chance.

I personally guarantee that if you are not satisfied with the extra feel from the Kirby Glove you can get your money back.
