How Often To Replace Golf Grips

 

How often should I replace golf grips? Golf grips should be replaced when they become worn or damaged, or when they no longer provide a comfortable, secure grip on the club. This can vary depending on how often you play, the conditions you play in, and how well you maintain your clubs. In general, it's a good idea to inspect your grips regularly and replace them when necessary. As a general rule, you should consider replacing your grips at least once a year, or more often if you notice any signs of wear or damage. This will help ensure that your clubs are always in top condition and that you have the best possible grip on the club during your swing. We generally recommend renewing your grips at least once a year. 

 

 

 

How To Check Your Golf Grip For Wear

To check your golf grip for worn grips, follow these steps:
  • Examine the grip surface. Look for any signs of wear, such as smooth or shiny areas, or any cuts or tears in the material.

 

  • Check the grip size. Golf grips can shrink or expand over time, which can affect the fit and comfort of the grip. Use a grip sizing chart to measure the diameter of your grip and compare it to the manufacturer's recommended size.

 

  • Test the grip's tackiness. Golf grips should be slightly sticky or tacky to the touch. If the grip feels slick or smooth, it may be worn and in need of replacement.

 

  • Pay attention to how the grip feels during your swing. If the grip feels loose or slippery, or if it causes discomfort or irritation, it may be time to replace it.

 

  • Look for signs of damage. Check the grip for any cracks, splits, or other damage that may affect its performance or durability.

 

  • If you notice any of these signs of wear or damage, it's a good idea to replace your golf grips. This will help ensure that your clubs are always in top condition and that you have the best possible grip on the club during your swing.
