    In Need of Grip Help

    This summer has kicked into high gear, heat wise, and I've noticed my hands are getting kind of sweaty. I don't like using gloves, so are there any grips that can handle a little bit of sweat. The ones on mine just slip making me hit hit lousy shots.

    Thanks.

    Get some Dryhands, it keeps your hands fairly dry.

    Cord grips are usually the best and I have used them until just recently. I am using the Lamkin N-DUR right now and they have been very good in the humidity.

    What also helps is to wash your grips regularly so that the sweat/oil from your hands doesn't accumulate.
    Not fat anymore. Need to get better at golf now!

    I use the Winn X-i7 and find them to be great in humid conditions.
    At the end of the day ... It gets dark

    I think that most moisture resistance grips work the same way. as suggested keep your grips clean - and try dusting a bit of gymnasts chalk on your hands. Available at most High Schools.

    Every one is different. I rememeber back when I used to be a tennis freak people used a sticky stuff or saw dust. Unfortunately I can't remember the name of the sticky stuff. I did find the following though and you might want to check it out if you have really sweaty hands.

    Is there something specific that you should / shouldn't clean your grips with? Simple dishsoap and water?
