Golf Grip Selection: How to Choose the Best Golf Pride Grip for Your Game

Choosing the right golf grip is essential for comfort, control, and performance. With so many options from Golf Pride, it can be tough to know which grip suits your hand size, playing style, and climate. This guide explores the most popular Golf Pride grips, their features, and expert tips for finding your perfect match.

Why Your Golf Grip Matters

The grip is your only connection to the club. The right choice can improve feel, reduce fatigue, and help you play your best. Factors to consider include size, material, texture, and moisture management.

  • Size: Standard, midsize, jumbo—choose based on glove size and comfort.
  • Material: Rubber, cord, wrap, or hybrid for different feel and durability.
  • Texture: Smooth, ribbed, or corded for grip and feedback.
  • Moisture control: Corded grips excel in humid conditions.

  2. Tour Velvet: Classic, all-around grip with smooth texture. Available in standard, midsize, and jumbo.
  3. Z Cord: Maximum traction and moisture management, ideal for sweaty hands or humid climates.
  4. CP2 Wrap/Pro: Soft, comfortable, and shock-absorbing. Good for players with hand fatigue or arthritis.

How to Choose the Right Grip Size

  • Match grip size to your glove size (e.g., cadet ML may prefer midsize).
  • Try different sizes to find what feels best in your hands.
  • Consider adding wraps for extra thickness and reduced tension.

Expert Tips for Grip Selection and Installation

  1. Test grips at a local shop before committing to a full set.
  2. Mix and match grips for different clubs if needed (e.g., corded on wedges, wrap on woods).
  3. Replace grips regularly for best performance—worn grips reduce control.
