Your Grip(s) and Hand Size

[HytrewQasdfg]

No options for adult men's grips sizes?

I use a Lamkin Crossline Jumbo grip (+1/8) which also has a .580 core. When put over a standardard shaft (with a .600 butt diameter) it increases the grip size just enough that it feels right (and my fingers don't dig into my palm.)

Anything smaller than that I consider a ladies grip. ;) Honestly though, a club with a standard men's grip feels like I'm holding a pencil.

i have larger than normal hands and use mid-size grips. it made a major difference in my gripping the club - the mid-sizes are much, much more comfortable and natural feeling for my hands.

Is there a way to get fitted for this?

I am about to regrip all of my irons and want to do it correctly. I have smallish hands, but I think going with an extra wrap would feel better to me.

Right now I play with standard multi cord with one wrap.

Average hand size, just use the standard grips.

A guy did measure me once (and recommended what I am now using), but I don't remember the criteria he used.

Regrip 1 club and see how it feels. I really think experimenting till you find what feels best is the best way on something like this.

I recently went unconventional after being introduced to "super-oversized" grips, and I would never go back to a standard grip. The improvement in my distance and accuracy was immediate. They are the size of a baseball bat grip and they allow you to place your hands very softly on the club without clamping down on the grip. I can go at the ball harder and stay in control. For me, they work really well, and I didn't need to adapt to a different swing (as in natural golf). I wear a M/L glove, swing speed is 103 and I'm a 9 Handicap.

Hope no one minds me resurrecting an old thread ... but I just replaced the standard grip on my sand wedge with a Lamkin Oversize - man what an improvement.    I have XL hands and it feels as you say just like a baseball bat - LOVE it.      Gonna give it a few rounds before I change everything over, but with my big hands, it really feels good.     One of my biggest pains after a round lately has been sore right fingers - I'm hoping this oversize grip will help ...

My hands are not long but they are wider and thicker than an average hand i have two extra wraps on my irons, which still seem a tad small. on my wedges I have two wraps with a third wrap under my bottom (right) hand. my driver has two wraps and my 3 wood and two hybids are factory grips, which when its time extra tape will be added. of all of them my wedges feel the bst grip wise. I am actually interested in trying those jumbo max grips and or a reversed taper grip just out of curiosity.

I have short fingers, average hand width. ML cadet golf glove, standard grips. I use to build up my grips under my left hand, but as I don't hook the ball as much these days I now go standard.

Back 15 years ago when I wore a glove, I used a large, but I've almost always used a standard grip.  I tried midsize for a while last year.  At first they seemed better, but as time went on I found myself having difficulty releasing the club, and my iron distances became rather erratic.  I'm back to a standard grip (Golf Pride Tour Velvet) and it feels so much more natural again.  I might get away with an extra wrap of tape, but I'm not that worried about it.

So I chose average/standard on the poll, because I'm just a very average kind of guy.

2XL glove, but standard grip, stretched. I play the grip down low in my fingers, so they barely get around the grip and almost, but not quite, touch my palm.

Long thin finger and XL glove.  I switched to mid-size last year and it feels way more comfortable.  Standard grips feel like pencils in my hand.  I also feel that I can reduce grip pressure and still feel secure.

I have large hands, and have always use 2 wraps, but right now my clubs are in the shop being re gripped and I am trying 3 wraps this time

See how it goes
