do I use if my hands get very sweaty in the summer?

i have two gloves in the summer, one for the front nine and one for the back nine - by the 7th hole my glove soaked...

i have basic golf pride rubber grips that slip like crazy right now

Look into the Gold Pride Tour Velvet Cord or the Golf Pride Multicoumpound Cord. Both are excellent grips that have cord in them, which will help you to not slip when swinging.

Monster Tour 10.5* w/ Redboard 63
FP400f 14.5* w/ GD YSQ
Idea Pro 18* w/ VS Proto 80s

Golf Pride Multicompound for me when I need new grips. The full chord ones have great grip, I used to get blisters though!

Cords are usually your better bet. Lamkin, Golfpride and now Winn all offer models with cord.

Practicing in Pensacola FL during the heat of summer caused me to sweat a ton. One some days I would have to towel off my hands and grip after just three shots to keep my grip from slipping. My old clubs had corded grips, but my new ones have mostly standard Golf Pride non-corded grips.

The corded grips will help you, but I found they really eat through sweat dampened gloves. I was lucky to get through a month without having holes in two new gloves. With the non-cord grips my glove life has drastically improved, but I definitely had to towel off my hands on the really hot and humid days on a regular basis.

One the course I would use two or three gloves during a round. I would usually wear one glove for about four holes before switching to a new glove. I always take my glove off between shots to prolong any sweat soaking. Once I used a glove I would connect it to the outside of my bag to help it dry out. If it wasn't too humid I could go four more holes with the second glove, then swap them out and go back to the first but now dry glove.

Both cord and non-cord grips have worked for me, but both require different methods of operating.

I love the Golf Pride New Decade Multi-cord Grips. Here is a link to them on Golf Prides Web Site: http:///www.golfpride.com/grips/cord/mc_nd.aspx
They work great for me, they do take just a little getting used to them. If you have real soft and tender hands, then these grips are not for you. Good luck finding the right grip for you. The right grip can go along way and helping your golf game. I say this because the the more comfortable you are in you grip the more confident and assured you are at the start of you golf swing. From the start of you golf swing on is another story. Good Luck.

Look into the Gold Pride Tour Velvet Cord or the

Golf Pride Multicompound

These are the same grips that I use on all my clubs and I fully recommend them not only in terms of the quality of grip when your hands are sweaty/wet (although there one of the best grips for wet conditions though, IMHO) but also for the feel that they provide.

    • Day 34 (14 Dec 25) - Got outside for a few moments to work on bump and runs with the 4h (again using the exaggerated weight shift reminder of the left (lead) heel). Finding that it helps keep the downswing arc extended.

    • I am currently playing a Cobra Ltdx LS 9 degree driver and Cobra Ltdx LS FW3. Both with Tensei White stock stiff shafts and original weights of 12g (heel) and 3g (toe). My miss is usually a pull fade or sometimes a slice, swing is out to in. Driver swing speed about 112 mph. Grips are stock regular. Intended change: Driver: Switching to Tensei White x-flex one inch shorter which I suppose would be 44,5? Changing heel weight to 18g. Changing grip to Golf Pride Z-grip cord midsize. Change hosel setting to standard draw. FW3: Changing heel weight to 16g (apparently not available in FW weights, but supposed to be something called "internal weight" a club builder can add which fits between the weight and the screw?). Change grip to Golf Pride Z-grip cord midsize. Changing hosel setting to standard +1. The goal is to 1) get better grip since I tend so lose grip in warm and moist conditions with the current grips and 2) mitigate the misses to start more straight with less side spin. Also considering adding the Cobra Ltdx LS FW5 instead of my old Taylormade R9 and getting 14g heel and 6g toe weights with the same grip as the others and hosel setting standard +1.   All of the above is based on conversations with ChatGPT and, as everyone knows, it can come up with pretty much whatever but I spent a few hours asking about different perspectives etc and this was the recommendation. So, my question is basically, does it make any sense?   Thanks.
