Anyone Using Jumbo Grips on Irons?

[SupaPro7]

I feel like I might benefit from bigger grips as I suffer with a bit of arthritis - I have never had my hands on one or seen one.

Can anyone who uses them tell me a little about how they find them please?

Other than maybe helping you not have to grip so hard, what else does it do to your swing?

Yeah, good question.

I switched to midsized grips a while back just because they are more comfortable. Sometimes I hear golfers saying a bigger grip prevents you from using your hands so much or allows you to use your hands more, creates a slice or cures one. 

In my opinion its all a bunch of hoey. Use the grip you find comfortable. But don't expect it to produce different results. 

Most golf stores or pro-shops have an array of grips you can get your hands on and test how they feel.

Many thanks for that straightforward answer.

Are 'mid-size' the same as jumbo? Which ones did you go for?

Usually they kind of go like this the smallest is undersized, then standard, then midsized, then oversized, then jumbo. 

For some companies jumbo and oversized are the same thing.
