Which grip do you have currently?

I also have sweaty hand, especially in the summer heat.  The two best I have found are Golf Pride New Decade Multi-compound and Pure Grips DTX.  Both are really good in wet conditions.  The Golf Pride NDMC is a tiny bit better, but it is also rougher on the hands.  The Pure DTX wipes down a bit easier.

One tip I would also give is to clean your grips with isopropyl alcohol that you can get from the drug store.  This not only removes the grime, but brings the tack back to grip.

Just one? Is that why golfers typically only wear one glove? I never knew that! :-)

I put some Winn Dri-Tac grips on this year. They are great even when damp. I like the soft feel too.

My hands sweat when I golf, too.  I always wear a glove and like Golf Pride Tour Velvet Grips.  They are well priced and I really like how they feel as they age.  Just took some off of my irons because the bottoms were cracking after 3 or 4 seasons...but stiff felt great to grip.

Do you wear a glove?  Do you interlock or overlap?

That'll last you a good 10 or 15 rounds… before they need replaced. :)

@megs8888 , if you can deal with the rough texture, I recommend getting something that's full-cord. I've heard a lot of good things about the Golf Pride Z-Grips.

On several recommendations I gripped my clubs with the New Decade MultiCompounds last year. I've never really been a fan of corded grips but have to say that these are awesome - really like the feel a lot. My hands sweat regularly as well and I tried going gloveless for the first time last year. Had no issue whatsoever with the New Decades. Thought about trying the Winn DriTacs to compare but don't think I'd like the spongy feel. +1 vote for the NDMCs.

The NDMC is a great grip, for a season at the most. That's why I love PURE grips. They're unrivaled in their durability.

Probably a fair assessment of the NDMC durability. I ust got word from the preseason grip check at my club - they're recommending a regrip. Probably got a little more than a full season (with a decent amount of range time). Not familiar with the Pure series but may check them out before I pull the trigger on the regrip.

The other reason why I love the PURE grips is because they go on with no double sided tape or solvent. Just need a small air compressor.

    • Fantastic selection! And very little driving between them. Fingers crossed the weather is good to you.
    • Day 20: 2026.01.22 Hit about twenty balls at the range. Quietly pleased with how the changes are bedding in, surprsingly consistent ball flight. Hoping to film over the weekend to capture new movement.
    • You might also consider a tune-up lesson. Check and see if anything in your set-up or basic swing is holding you back. I have been playing for more than five decades, but on occasion I've had to make swing tweaks due to age, loss of flexibility, etc. You don't have to reinvent your swing. A couple of static set-up changes might really help out.
    • Good advice. In general, you want to take whatever weight you are lifting to a couple of reps before failure, for muscle growth. There are other tactics for PT related stuff. I would trust your PT person.  For muscle growth, you can go like 30 reps to failure. It is tougher to gauge. Also, it takes 2x as long to do the same number of working sets per week if you are doing 15 instead. It is way less efficient, but your case is special because of the injury/aggravation to the hip. 
    • Several years ago I got paired with a twosome of golfers, one of which had a maybe 5-year-old son with him. The kid had a putter and a 7i with him, and on some holes he would drop a ball near the green, chip on, and putt. If the kid started to get distracted, the dad would ask, "Do you need to rest?" The kid would nod yes, and then take his dad's seat riding in the cart for a couple of holes. It was a slow day, and the kid was polite and friendly. We got through 18 just fine. (If it had been a crowded course day, I'm sure it would have been less pleasant.)
