When did the gove start being worn to play golf ?

Question

i would like to know the year , also where i can find more information on the first golf gloves .

Answer 1

they started using the glove since the beginning

Answer 2

I  believe that golf gloves were worn just about the time that leather was wrapped around the wooden shaft of the golf club to form its gripping surface. These had a tendency to absorb sweat and were effected by rain so gloves were worn to counteract the slipperyness. The internet has all that information somewhere so seek the year. Good luck !!

when they threw the club after a swing they needed something to hold it in
