How often should you replace your wedges? Should I lengthen my wedges? Can you get your wedges Regrooved? Should I sharpen my wedge grooves? Is it illegal to sharpen golf grooves? Should I sharpen my iron grooves? Dave M. I usually regrip my driver and SW every 4 years, the rest can last twice that long or more and I never even use a glove. But admittedly I am in the minority on these grips, most people are going MCC these days.
Mark F. I like these because they seem to last forever. I don't know how much you play or practice but I play once a week and hit the range once a week also. As for the tackiness, if mine get a bit slick I just pour a little water on them and rub a little and then wipe off with a towel. They get sticky right away.
I like that because if a club gets slick while on the course, I can just use some of my water and I'm back in the game. Hope this helps. November 30, at PM Hi Josh, I'd recommend applying tar to the shaft then wrapping a 40 grade sandpaper around which will be sure to give you year-round grip.. Only kidding.. I have yet to try it in very wet conditions but the Golf Pride MMC I use on my driver is grippy when wet, any grip with a cord will absorb moisture and prevent the club slipping.
December 03, at AM Depends on what feels best in your hands , everyone is different. Doug E Urbana, MD. December 18, at PM Joshua, to your point about your grips wearing out too quickly, I'm not surprised. Other than putter and driver, what clubs in your bag do you use more?
I'm guessing, none. Wedges not only get plenty of use during the course of a round, but they also get or should get a lot more use during practice sessions, particularly when you realize that short game is key to low scores. Any lateral movement of the grip in the hands during the swing spells trouble.
Still, strangling the club with excessive grip pressure is counterproductive. Keep in mind that the needs of a hard-swinging adolescent may be very different from those of a retiree with a more languid swing.
Gloving habits also influence the choice of textures. Some players play bare-handed, while in rare cases, some golfers play with gloves on both hands for added grip.
Almost all tour pros wear a golf glove on their lead hand. In general, the higher the swing speed, the greater the need for torsion control. A firm grip allows for stability even when combined with the lighter grip pressure typically preferred by better players. A soft grip may cause excessive torque at higher swing speeds. For them, torsion control is less of an issue. With the wrong grip, you may use too firm a grip without even realizing it.
Golfers that often play in wet or humid weather may favor the coarse texture of a corded grip. Any movement during the swing can quickly sabotage the shot.
However, some players find that the texture of a corded grip is too hard on their hands, particularly if they firmly grip the club. Some plastic and polymer grips get slippery in the rain. Smooth grips may require the occasional application of a tack spray. Players look for a balance between feel, durability, tackiness, torsion-resistance and vibration damping. There are four general categories of golf grips: wrapped, rubber, corded and hybrid.
Genuine leather wrapped grips remain popular. However, manufacturers also use synthetic materials molded in a wrapped design. Synthetic materials are often less vulnerable to temperature and humidity extremes. Rubber grips are the most common, in part because they are often the most economical. Rubber grips come standard on many sets of clubs sold to everyday players.
High-quality rubber grips offer the grip stability that many golfers appreciate. Coarse, corded grips deliver needed traction control in adverse weather conditions. They wick away moisture into the gaps between the cords. Golfers who play in wet or hot, humid conditions often favor corded grips.
Players with strong swings that generate high swing speeds often prefer corded grips. To some degree, the fingers and the palm of your hand have different needs.
