GOLF Q&A'S

 

Which type of grip should I use?

There are several types of grip on the market, again it is down to personal preference as to which grip you like the feel of.

Rubber

These grips are a blend of liquid rubber and granulated cork, presure moulded and then sanded and painted. Thsee trips are easy to install, have reminder marks for hand placement and are light and inexpensive.

Leather

Made using cowhide or calfskin, these spiral wrapped grips have a soft feel to them. However they are difficult to install and expensive.

Corded

Rubber grips can also be corded with strands of thread. This creates a rough, non-slip grip which is useful in the rain. They do tend to wear out gloves quite quickly. Half-corded grips are also available, with the cording wrapped around the top of the grip where the thumbs are placed.
