Is It Time To Change Your Grips?

Your grips are the only piece of equipment you touch on every single swing, making it crucial that they are always performing their best.

Like your golf shoes, grips wear down over time due to a number of factors, including:

• Sweat & oils from your hands
• Dirt
• UV rays
• Hot & cold conditions

When your grips wear down, they’ll feel slick and lose traction. It’s not ideal to be standing over that tight tee shot or approach over water not knowing whether the club will stay in your hands.

As a general rule, it’s recommended that you change your grips once a year, though if you play more than 40 rounds a year or hit the range a few times a week, you may need to replace grips more often.
