My Dad has lost the ability to play golf due to arthritis in his hands. The only solutions out there involve thicker grips.

Does anyone know of a product that can bind his hands to the club. This seems to be the only way for him to swing the club

and not have it fly out of his hands. I am hoping I can get him back out on the course soon.

Cheers...Herman

Thats a tough one! I have the darn stuff also and fortunately it is in my right trigger finger and I don't use it all that much gripping the club. Arthurs-itus finally ruined my right hip and I had to have it replaced and now it's working on my left knee. I hate the stuff, wish it didn't exist but we have to live with it. Wish you luck with your dad and I'm sorry I can't help ya!

Golf is not a game, it's a way of life!

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By WillieT · Posted

      Day 33 (13 Dec 25) - Worked on weight shift and resetting the left heel during downswing (after listening to a discussion on Golf School this morning on PGA Tour Radio).  It centered on how Jack Nicklaus lifted his lead heel and how long driver champs do as well.  Taking cues from that discussion, worked an exaggerated feel of the left heel working doing some swing drill in the backyard using the 7i.  Wrapped up the session by hitting a few low bump and run shots in the backyard - keeping the process slow and exaggerated.

      Dr. Raymond Prior and Block vs. Random Practice (The Spin Axis Podcast)

      By iacas · Posted

      It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…
