Abstract: Relaxation of grip during a golf stroke is restrained by hook-to-loop adhesion between fabric (5) covering the golf-club handle (3) and fabric elements (11-14) attached to the golfer's gloves (1, 2). The handle-covering fabric (5) has hook-ended threads and is wrapped around the handle (3) directly (or helically (25) FIG. 5). Loop-fabric patches (11, 13) are attached to the tips of the glove-thumbs (15, 21), and loop-fabric elements (12, 14) extend across the palms (16, 22) at the base of the fingers (17-20, 23, 24). Change of grip is signaled by a tearing sound as hook-loop engagement is broken at either glove (1, 2). An alternative pair of gloves ((21, 32), FIGS. 6-10) includes a palm-located fabric element (38) augmenting adhesion of the lower glove (31) with the handle (3), and mutally-adhering fabric elements (34, 39) of opposite thread types for restraining relaxation of the upper glove (32) from where it overlies the lower glove (31).
