Swing weight affected ?

[Strat-Pack Rick]

I have an arthritis issue and have gotten the MCC4 grips in the past. I noticed a big difference in the weight of the club head, or what it "felt" like anyway. Ive been told over sized grips affect swing weight but are there over-sized grips out there that are made light on purpose to avoid this. I like the way my new clubs feel and dont want to make that mistake again. I like the way the bigger grips feel in my hands but dont like the weight change. Is this in my head or is it real ? My hands dont hurt bad enough to mess my game up. Nothing is worth taking steps backward. Thanks. Hit Em Good Yall !!

Changing grips can alter the swing weight of the club.  You could look up the weight of your existing grips and compare them to the weight of the grips you want to install if the difference is minimal it shouldn't change the clubs swing weight.    

Another option to consider is to try the Bionic line of gloves designed for those with arthritis.  I know a few people use them and feel they help greatly.  Here is the link; http://www.bionicgloves.com/product/3277
