Does using a glove make much of a difference in racquetball?

I haven’t purchased one because I get really sweaty when I play. I’ve looked at the Ektelon Coolmax Ice, but dunno if it’ll help.

I am a pretty sweaty guy also, that is why I have six gloves I carry with me when I play. I rotate gloves after every game. Gloves really helps with the grip of the racquet.

Ektelon makes good gloves!!

I also use a wrist band to help keep the sweat from rolling down my arm onto my glove.

I hope this helps..

using a glove makes a big difference in racquetball, without one your hand can get sore if you have a worn grip and they help protect from blisters, i agree that ektelon makes great grips and have used the coolmax myself, loving it, make sure you get the right size glove you dont want one that is too big or too small and i would recommend that once you find a glove that you like, buy 6-8 of them so that you can rotate, i have always been told, but never tried it, that gloves can’t go through the washer so to switch often and let them air out to dry
