I am having a problem with the clubs sliding out of my hands on my swing on hot days. I have a new set of Adams Irons, so the grips are new. Should I reg rip with something like Winn's to improve this. Is there anything else that might be causing the club to slide out of my hand? What is the best grip for me?

Are you wearing a glove?

How tightly are you holding the club? I'm not saying you should give it a death grip (in fact, you probably shouldn't), but some people are told to hold the club lightly and then barely hold onto it.

I normally suffer from slippage when my grip (not the rubber grip but my hand grip) is faulty. A tackier set of grips may help though if you're someone who likes to grip your clubs extremely lightly....

I think it's because of the sweaty hands. May I recommend half or even full cord grips, such as Golf Pride Multi Compound? They're good on hot/humid condition and they won't easily slip out of your hands. The downside is they'll eat up your glove faster due to its coarse surface. Another thing is they're not easy on your other hand (yes the one without glove) on dry condition.

I had all my irons, both the Fusion (red black) and MP-60 (blue black) re-gripped with them not long ago. Overall, I'm satisfied and they're just aesthetically amazing.

I play in Florida where the summer heat and humidity is ridiculous. I have been having the same problem lately with my non-gloved hand sweating and sliding on the grip. I've started to carry talcum powder in my bag and dust my hands with it every 2-3 holes. Seems to really help (though the powder can get all over your grips). I would recommend giving this a shot.

If your hands are that sweaty try carrying a dry towel in your hand to absorb the sweat and when your ready to hit just drop the towel down and hit.

    • Day 58: night putting session for about an hour. Started with lag putting and ended with putts inside 9’. I need to work on putts from 6-12’, but in a solid spot overall. 
    • Birdied a different #6 today (incidentally, also a par-5, but not the same one on which I previously birdied).  Here's the funny thing though:  it's the par-5 that caused me to post my "how do I avoid bogeys?" on par-5s recently.  So I guess I still haven't parred that hole.
    • Day 20, May 24.  Played 18 today, very poor ball driving.  One GIR, and it was a 4-wood from the rough.  Several other instances of hitting a green on a full swing (and at least one full swing motion -- a 50% UW) that wasn't for GIR.   Still shot an 87 and even had a birdie (chip-in).
    • Welcome to TST.  I spent a bit of time in the UK but I had to look up Wagon Wheels.  Don't think I ever saw them.  Had to Google to see.  Couple similar items in US but Google says they are different. 😁
    • Day 264 5-24 Worked on getting chest through and arms down infront of chest. Contact isn't great yet but on video looking better.
