At Golf Gear Direct, we know that choosing the right golf grips is just as important as selecting the correct shaft or lie angle. The grip is your only direct connection to the golf club, so having the correct type and size can transform your control, comfort, and consistency on the course. A poorly fitted grip can cause problems with swing mechanics, ball flight, and even lead to discomfort or injury over time. That's why we always check grip fit during our custom fitting sessions.
Grip size is determined primarily by your hand size. During a fitting, we measure:
These measurements help us determine whether you need a Standard, Undersize, Midsize, or Oversize grip. We also consider playing style and personal feel preferences during testing.
| Grip Size | Hand Size Range | Player Profile |
|---|---|---|
| Undersize / Ladies | Small hands (glove size: Ladies S/M) | Promotes better grip pressure for players with smaller hands or juniors. |
| Standard | Average hands (Men's M/L glove) | The most common size, suits most golfers with neutral grip styles. |
| Midsize | Larger hands (Men's L/XL glove) | Helps reduce tension in grip pressure, ideal for golfers with stronger hands. |
| Oversize / Jumbo | Very large hands (Men's XXL glove+) | Reduces hand action, helps control hooks, often favoured by players with arthritis or hand pain. |
