Does anyone have any suggestions for certain grips or a spray that will prevent the club from slipping in my hands?

It seems like every time I play golf its scorching hot out. My game is definitely affected by these conditions.

Get yourself some very hot soapy water and a fine wire brush, then scrub the grips, rinse, and wipe them dry. Good as new.

Really, Wire Brush? Wouldn't that shred the grips? I need to clean mine as well.

I use a toothbrush with the soapy water - gets it done.

There is also the Gorilla Gold Golf Grip Enhancer towel which looks to be a probable fix to the problem...

I have been dealing with this for a long time and I will only use the Tour Wrap grip from Golf Pride. I take a towel with me to play and get about 1/4 of it wet. I wipe my grip with the wet end and then dry it. I wipe my hands if needed. I then have a clean and tacky grip. I don't wear a glove and have never had a club slip. When I did wear gloves, they just got wet from the sweat so I had to rotate between two or three during the round.

Golf Pride full cord...they won't slip, and will rub your hands to s**t.

+1 LOL. Thats true, I just put Lamkin full cord on my irons and there is no slippage but they sure do make your hand sore after a round!

Back in my college days when I was too poor to re-grip, I used to just splash a little Pepsi on the grips and rub it in with my hands.......that said, I will defer to the idea of cleaning with a brush.

Golf Pride New Decade Multicompound are great. No slippage at all in hot weather, and not quite as rough on your hands as full cord. I wash them in warm soapy water with a scotch-brite pad every 4 or 5 rounds and they look good as new.

A very fine lightweight wire or stiff nylon brush. Not like a heavy duty huge welders brush or side grinder.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      Day 35, June 8. Before leaving for work this morning (yes, I'm posting this quite late relative to the practice), I spent 15 minutes practicing at home, into a net.  This time, it was primarily 9-iron (full swings), with some UW (full and half) and a few 6-iron.

      Day 73: just some mirror work today. Working on feels for being open and getting the front shoulder down.

      I'm liking this. Finally getting down hands in front of my trail leg pocket consistently at A6 with much better clubhead position (relatively not as tipped out). I can really pressure the shaft through impact with good face control  from this position and stay in balance. Won my first one v one march 5&4 against a 4 hcp who routinely drives it 35-40 yards past me in the men's club match play . Frustrated him with some solid iron play and air tight putting.

      Day 8 (Jun 8 26) - Stayed the drill but added two additional irons (7i, 8i and 9i) - using Divot Board and hard foam balls - focused on tempo and purposed pause at the top….noticing how open the club is marking the board when I try to kill it and how much more square (and better distance) when I focus on these keys.
