EXO Golf Glove Test Results: Measurable Gains in Distance, Accuracy, and Control

‍
In February 2025, we published results from a controlled performance study that asked a simple but rarely tested question:

Can a golf glove measurably improve performance?

The answer was yes.

Extensive testing on a TrackMan® launch monitor showed that the EXO Golf Glove, featuring our patented Zyntech™ nanotechnology, improved distance, accuracy, and swing consistency for a majority of golfers tested.

That study formed the foundation for further development. Since then, we have iterated the design multiple times — refining the glove’s nanotech placement, construction, and fit. Now, with Version 5, we are seeing performance gains that surpass our expectations and signal that the glove is ready for full market release.

‍

Recap: February 2025 Test Results

The first large-scale test involved 18 golfers, split between control and experimental groups, to reduce bias.

• Format: Each golfer alternated between their own glove and the EXO glove in controlled shot sequences.
• Tests: Irons (with hidden data) and driver (with visible data)
• Metrics measured: Carry distance, accuracy (dispersion/standard deviation), face-to-path, smash factor
• Verification: Results confirmed by independent observers

Key findings from February 2025:

• Irons: 65% gained carry distance, 53% improved or maintained accuracy
• Drivers: 67% gained driving distance, 61% improved accuracy

These gains were achieved with first-time users, no break-in period, and a prototype with limited size options. While the performance was strong, we identified opportunities to further optimize the glove’s energy transfer and control.

What’s New in Version 5

Version 5 of the EXO Golf Glove incorporates several design enhancements informed by testing data, user feedback, and professional input:

• Enlarged Zyntech™ nanotech zone on the palm to maximize energy transfer at impact.
• Refined nanotech placement on pinky and ring finger calluses to reduce micro-slipping and twisting, even compared to a brand-new leather glove.
• Additional nanotech layer higher up the fingers for improved control during high-speed swings.
• Durability enhancements at key stress points without increasing bulk.

These changes were made with one goal:
To create the most stable, efficient, and performance-driven connection between a golfer’s hands and the club.

Testing the Latest Version

To validate Version 5, we conducted extensive field testing from April 2025 through late summer:

• Testing environments: Indoor simulator bays, outdoor ranges, and on-course play.
• Participants: Playing professionals, competitive amateurs, weekend golfers, and players returning to form after a break.
• Validation: Both independent and in-house sessions using TrackMan® and FlightScope® launch monitors under controlled shot sequences.

Real-World Feedback

While launch monitor data provides objective performance measurement, on-course testing confirms real-world impact.

• One competitive amateur won an open tournament in wet conditions wearing Version 5, citing improved control and grip confidence.
• Several mid-handicap golfers reported shooting their lowest rounds in years after switching to the glove.
• High-handicappers are reporting more confidence with one golfer psoting his best round in 15 years.

Ready for Market: Late 2025 Kickstarter Launch

With Version 5 delivering consistent gains across multiple player types and playing conditions, we are confident the EXO Golf Glove is ready for full release.

We are launching via Kickstarter in late 2025 for two key reasons:

1. Early access for golfers who value performance — backers will receive the first production gloves before they are available at retail.
2. Scaled production forecasting — pre-orders help us plan manufacturing to meet demand without compromising quality.

‍

‍Conclusion

The EXO Golf Glove began as an experiment to see if a proven nanotechnology to be applied to the area of golf that has been forgotten and ignored by golfers...the glove. After multiple iterations, years of testing, thousands of data points, and feedback from golfers of all levels, the answer is clear:

A golf glove can be performance equipment.
When engineered with Zyntech™ nanotechnology and tested against measurable benchmarks, it can improve distance, accuracy, and control — and do it consistently in all conditions.
