NCG grip guide: all you ever needed to know about grips
In a strange kind of way, I would rather have fresh grips on my old clubs than a new set to kick off the season. It’s satisfying to take pride in your possessions and showing your golf clubs some love and re-gripping them makes them feel like new again – for a fraction of the cost.
Psychologically, this is the time of year to make the change. It means that last year has gone and a new season has arrived. That inexplicable ongoing distrust in your 6-iron can be forgotten now it has a new grip – all your clubs are your friends once more.
And above all, it really does make a difference. Grips don’t get old overnight – so you don’t notice the gradual loss of tackiness. It’s only when you put new ones on that you realise just how shiny they’ve become and the edge in performance that you are sacrificing.
