When gripping the golf club, make sure you’re aligning it with your fingers rather than the centre of your palm. Cradle your fingers and let the club rest there to find its natural position, and then rest your thumb on the trail side of the grip. For a neutral, standard grip, ensure you keep a ‘V’ space between your thumb and finger on your trail hand, and align this with either your chin or your left shoulder. Your grip is as much a part of your stance and set-up as your feet and hips are. Some putter grips like a Winn style putting grip are going to have a very soft and almost cushion like texture.

This ends up causing some negative thoughts towards the putter and can decrease overall confidence. The color of your golf putter grip is a good thing to think about, but it probably doesn’t need to be the only consideration. Choosing the best putter grips can sometimes be more complicated than a grip for your irons. Feel is such an essential part of the short game that the grip you choose must provide the best feel. A putter grip that is too heavy can also make it so that your putter is no longer counter balanced. For golfers with counterbalanced putters that want to change their putter grip, it is best to have a professional do it.

Shafts are tip trimmed (if required) to manufacturer’s recommendations. For steel shafts, we abrade the tips. For graphite shafts, we remove the polyurethane coating.
