What are golf grips?

Golf grips come in either round, ribbed, or alignment shapes. Round is the most popular shape for most grips, meaning you can orient the grip whichever way you prefer (some players like to have the logo of the grip facing up or down, or may choose a 360/no-logo grip ). Ribbed grips have a small protruding ridge, designed to be oriented along the spine of the shaft. This rib, also called a "reminder", helps players feel where the bottom of the grip is, so they know how to properly place their hands. Recently, a more modern and prominent rib design has been introduced by some manufacturers, calling it an " Alignment " or " Calibrate " rib. These alignment grips feature an unmistakable ridge that runs along the full length of the grip.

What are the different types of golf grips?

Golf Grips come in many different styles but pretty much fall into one of these categories: Velvet, Composite, Wrap, Cord, and Hybrid (Cord + Rubber). The Velvet style grip was made popular by Golf Pride's flagship Tour Velvet line, which feature small repeating patterns of crosses using a rubber material. Velvet grips provides a light texture and traction for control without sacrificing feel. The Composite grip was made popular more recently with styles like the Winn Dri-tac and Golf Pride CP2, which feature a tacky and smooth surface that also provide visually enhancing patters and non-slip gripping. The Wrap style grip is actually a simulated 1-piece style but using a wrap design. The Winn Excel is a popular wrap style grip, as well as the Golf Pride Tour Wrap and Jumbomax Wrap grips. Cord grips have cord fabric interweaved through the surface of the grip. This provides traction and added firmness (feedback). The Hybrid style is a newer more modern style grip that utilizes both cord and rubber. The Golf Pride MCC Plus4 is one of the most notable Hybrid grips, which use a softer rubber for the lower hand and cord (for traction/control) in the upper hand.

The tour velvet BCT cord is also an option. How the heck do I choose a grip!? there's so many choices.

In the grand scheme of things grips are probably the least important part of a club to actual score. So... if you really feel comfortable with one of the grips youve tried why not just take it?

The grip is your only connection to the club, so don't short change yourself with your selection.

LankyLefty

Oh, and if you have an air compressor, blow them puppies on! ... On and off in seconds. No fuss, no mess, and you can play them immediately.

Set the regulator to 40-50 psi max, and use a slip over tube (2" PVC works great) when taking any old or used on off, and use shorts bursts. I sure wouldn't install old grips this way, but for installing new grips, or replacing last seasons grips, it's the nuts!

LankyLefty

Grips are important but really what is the difference between two grips that you really like? In my mind almost none. If I try 5 grips and I like all of em, i just buy the cheapest one.
