Article describes gloves designed by a certified hand therapist to help protect golfers from injury. The Terris Golf series of leather gloves incorporate viscoelastic polymer technology to help reduce shock and vibration without restriction of motion of the digits or wrist during the golf swing. The Competition Series I glove is designed to provide shock absorption at the end range of lateral wrist motion by incorporating viscoelastic polymer pads at both sides of the wrist, while the Competition Series II style is fashioned to protect the base of the thumb during the golf swing and provide comfort for an arthritic or unstable carpometacarpal joint. The Training Edition glove is suitable for any golfer at any age when working at the driving range, providing shock absorption and vibration dampening with the aid of a polymer pad placed on the inside palmar surface of the glove. The Competition Series I and II gloves conform to the rules of the United States Golf Association.
