In addition, in trial 1's skin has a fairly flat color, a non- leakable state of nerves, and a tightness to the standards. Trial 2 skin has a flat color, a non- leaking nerf, and a tightness to the standards. The physical test results show skin softness values are 6,4 mm (trial 1) and 6,6 mm (trial 2). The conclusion is that using 0,1% surfactant, it can reduce the defect present in the skin of the article cabretta golf glove but with little trace and the softness remains up to standards.

PENGARUH EFEK PENGGUNAAN SURFACTAN UNTUK MENGHILANGKAN NODA FATTY SPEW PADA KULIT GOLF GLOVE

Fatty spew is a stain found in leather that has been tanned with chrome. The appearance of fatty spew is caused by the content of free fatty acids which is too high. The purpose of this experiment was to determine the effect of using surfactant as a washing agent in removing fatty spew stains on golf glove leather. The raw materials used were 2 sheets of chrome tanned crust measuring 11 sqft with a weight of 206 g and a shaving thickness of 0.4-0.5 mm. The process carried out is by washing using a washing agent in the form of a surfactant as much as 0.6% of the weight of the skin. Washing was carried out for 30 minutes using a process drum. The results of the washing showed that fatty spew stains on the crust skin obtained maximum results after washing there was a slight change in the surface of the skin that felt a little rough, so additional polishing treatment was needed. The conclusion obtained is that the use of surfactants obtains maximum results in removing fatty spew stains on the crust skin.

Commercial golf glove effects on golf performance and forearm muscle activity

ABSTRACTThe study aimed to determine whether or not commercial golf gloves influence performance variables and forearm muscle activity during golf play. Fifteen golfers participated in the laboratory based study, each performing 8 golf swings with a Driver and 7-iron whilst wearing a glove and 8 without wearing the glove. Club head speed, ball speed and absolute carry distance performance variables were calculated. Surface electromyography was recorded from the flexor digitorum superficialis and extensor carpi radialis brevis on both forearm muscles. Club head speed, ball speed and absolute carry distance was significantly higher when using the Driver with the glove in comparison to the Driver without the glove (p < 0.05). No significant differences were evident when using the 7-iron and no significant differences were displayed in muscle activity in either of the conditions. Findings from this study suggest that driving performance is improved when wearing a glove.

Lean Manufacturing Approach as A Means of Improving Callaway Diablo Golf Glove Production Systems

맞춤 골프장갑의 구매의도에 따른 혁신기술수용모델(TAM)의 차이

This study investigates the attitude and intention of consumers to use customized golf gloves depending on the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM). TAM consists of perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness. To conduct the quantitative research, we collected data from 182 consumers. SPSS 14.0 was used for statistical analysis. Descriptive statistics, factor analysis, reliability analysis, t-test and path analysis were implemented. The results of this study are as follows. First, the subjects were divided into two groups with one group higher in purchase intention. The difference between the two groups was significant. The higher purchase intention group was higher in the perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, and positive attitude toward customized golf gloves than the lower purchase intention group. In the lower group, the perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness influenced the intention to use through the attitudes of consumers. On the other hand, in the higher group, the perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness influenced the intention to use directly as well as through the attitude of consumers. Therefore, a different marketing strategy must be designed according to purchase intention in marketing innovative products.

A Case of Chromium Contact Dermatitis due to Exposure from a Golf Glove

Chromium is a transition metal and has been shown to elicit contact dermatitis. Although leather products have been known to be the most significant source of chromium exposure these days, the majority of reports have been related to exposure from shoe products. We herein report a professional golfer who became allergic to golf gloves made of chromium-tanned leather. A 27-year-old woman golfer presented with recurrent, pruritic, erythematous plaques that had been occurring on both hands for several years. The lesions developed whenever she had worn golf gloves for an extended period of time, especially during tournament season. To identify the causative agent, patch tests were performed and the results demonstrated a strong positive reaction to potassium dichromate 0.5% and to her own glove. The amount of chromium in her golf glove was analyzed to be 308.91 ppm and based on this, a diagnosis of allergic contact dermatitis due to a chromium-tanned leather glove was made. She was treated with oral antihistamines combined with topical steroids and advised to wear chromium-free leather gloves. There has been no evidence of recurrence during a six month follow-up period.

Occupational Allergic Contact Dermatitis from Epoxy Resin in a Golf Club Repairman

A golfer presented with facial and hand eczema. He had exacerbations of his hand eczema prior to golf tournaments. Being an authorized golf club repairman, he had been working with a two-part glue containing an epoxy resin (ER) based on diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (DGEBA) and the hardener diethylenetriamine (DETA) for approximately 4 years before he developed any skin problems. He was patch-tested with the standard, which contains an ER based on DGEBA (DGEBA-R), epoxy (containing DETA), and rubber glove series and had positive reactions to DGEBA-R only. Other work materials (a latex glove, a golf glove made of leather, and part of the handle of his own golf club "as is" and in a methyl tert-butyl ether extract) were tested, with negative results. Allergic contact dermatitis from ER affects the skin by direct contact; the dermatitis is usually localized to the hands and forearms. If the face and eyelids are involved, the dermatitis may be due to exposure to airborne hardeners or reactive diluents, exposure to airborne dust from residual monomers, or ectopic allergic reactions. Our repairman had sandpapered an old glued surface, which may have led to possible airborne dust formation, thus explaining the facial eczema. Therefore, a worker with contact allergy to ER may continue working provided the skin is protected from contamination.

Measurement and analysis of grip force during a golf shot

In this study, grip force was measured during a standard golf tee shot using two different measurement techniques. The first utilized a matrix-type thin-film sensor applied to a golf grip, from which total grip force could be readily determined. The second method involved 31 individual thin-film force sensors strategically placed on two golf gloves, allowing the force output of specific regions of the hands to be measured. Twenty golfers of varying ability participated in each test. The discovery of a unique grip force ‘signature’ for each golfer emerged from these data. That is, each golfer had a very repeatable total grip force trace, but these traces varied considerably between golfers. High-speed video was also recorded for many of the golfers tested so that key phases in the swing could be identified on the force traces.

Nine Holes

FICTION Nine Holes_________________________ Garry Barker WHEN VERNON WATTS READ that a new golf course had been opened in Finch County, Kentucky, he decided to bring along his clubs on his next visit. Vernon's gear was mixed: woods from K-Mart, rusted irons from a yard sale, a gooseneck putter won in a poker game, yellow spiked shoes picked up at the Salvation Army Store in Asheville. Vernon's golf glove and orange XXX balls came from the discount store on the bypass. Vernon's game was equally inconsistent and colorful. Flailing, chopping, swinging from the heels, he played at a sweaty half-trot. "If you'd slow down," grumbled Vernon's usual playing partner, Russ Williams, "you might be good." "Wouldn't be fun that way," said Vernon. "I like to play, not loaf around. It's the game, Russ. Not sipping drinks at the clubhouse and wearing a shirt that cost more than my car." Vernon rolled into Finch County a week after his younger brother Lee got home from the army and a Vietnam tour. Lee shared his beer with Vernon and allowed as how he'd like to shoot a few "golfs," too. "I watched 'em play at the officer's club," he said. "Anything an officer can do has to be easy. Where can I get me a sack of bats?" A phone call verified that clubs could be rented at the new Horse Mountain Country Club. "Opened up a year ago," Harper Watts told his sons. "Senator Baker and some his buddies started it. Costs a hundred dollars a year to join up, and they won't let you play if you ain't a member." "That's just if you live here," said Vernon. "Out-of-town players can pay a greens fee. I'm from North Carolina, and Lee—he's from Saigon." Just after noon the next day, Lee drove up to Vernon's mother-inlaw 's house in a black '55 Chevy with fat tires, noisy dual exhausts, a tiny steering wheel and a stuttering engine. Vernon tossed his clubs into the back seat, then yelled, "This thing runs a little rough," yelled Vernon. Lee grinned and handed across a beer. "Cam," he said. "What?" asked Vernon. 57 Lee punched the throttle, snapping Vernon hard back against the seat, splattering beer. Lee jerked the stubby gearshift, straightened up the spinning rear end and leaned over. "I said," he yelled, "that it idles a little rough because of the racing cam." At ninety, Lee shifted into high gear. "Runs good," yelled Vernon, "but you better drop the parachute if you're going to get around this curve." At the foot of Horse Mountain, the narrow road veered sharply right and started climbing. Lee geared down, wrestled the car through the turns and almost missed the cutoff. A homemade sign marked the entrance to the new country club. Lee threw gravel as he worked the car up a steep bulldozer cut. In the gap there was a small parking lot and a weathered, sagging barn. Lee stopped. "Is this it?" "Must be," said Vernon. "Over there's a golf cart." Lee drove up to the barn. Vernon unloaded his clubs and sat down to lace up his shoes. An overalled, tobacco-chewing little man came grinning out from the barn. "I swear," chuckled Toad Walters, "Vernon and Lee Watts. I thought you two boys had left the country." "Toad? What are you doing here?" Vernon shook the little man's hand. "I thought you lived in your poolroom. When did you take up golf?" "I'm the manager," grinned Toad. "Reckon they figured I could make change, break up fights and keep my mouth shut, so they give me the job. Come on in, boys. I got a pool table in the barn." "We come to shoot golfs," said Lee. "Can you rent me some clubs?" "Seeing as how it's you, Leroy," said Toad, "I'll dig out Senator Baker's rig. He don't ever use it anyhow." The inside of the old tobacco barn had been cleaned out and graveled. "Take the cart too," Toad offered. Lee drove the...

Treatment of hair pulling and hair manipulation maintained by digital-tactile stimulation

Treatment was provided for the hair pulling and hair manipulation of a 19-year-old woman (Kris) diagnosed with mental retardation across multiple settings in her home. Treatment probes conducted prior to our formal treatment evaluation indicated that hair pulling was suppressed when Kris wore either a 2.5-lb wrist weight or a golf glove. However, these interventions did not produce sustained reductions of hair pulling during the treatment evaluation. Therefore, a procedure involving response interruption and differential reinforcement for the absence of hair pulling and hair manipulation was implemented, which produced near-zero levels of hair pulling. The results of this intervention were socially validated and recommendations for further research are provided.
