Texture

Some grips come with a range of textures that can offer a smooth or coarse feel when you are using your clubs. It is important you try all styles to find the one that is the most comfortable for you to use. If you don’t wear gloves, you might want a smoother grip that has little to no texture or pattern. Another option is a grip with rougher textures because it provides more traction for your hands. Players who prefer this style of grips feel that they have more gripping confidence. However, it is all personal preference and based on your game and playing conditions.

Weather Conditions

The weather conditions of where you play are an important factor to consider when selecting your golf grips. For example, if you play in wet or humid weather, you might want to consider a cord fabric because it provides more traction and support. However, some players feel that the cord fabric is too rough for their hands. As a result, you might want to find a grip that has a rougher pattern and heavy surface texture to prevent any slipping.
