wscooby Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 During high humidity the club will slip in my right hand on the downswing. Please give me some remedies. Quote Link to comment

cnosil Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 don't know how old your grips are; they may need to be replaced or you can use a rain glove. tony@CIC 1 Quote Driver: G400 Max 9* w/ KBS Tour Driven Fairway: TS3 15* w/Project X Hzardous Smoke Hybrids: 915H 21* w/KBS Tour Graphite Hybrid Prototype 915H 24* w/KBS Tour Graphite Hybrid Prototype Irons: TR20V 6-11 w/Vizard TR20-85 Graphite Wedge: 54/12D, 60/8M w/:Accra iWedge 90 Graphite Putter: TM-180 Testing: Backups: Milled Collection RSX 2, mFGP2, Futura 5W Member: MGS Hitsquad since 2017 Link to comment
Middler Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 Like others have asked, how old are your grips? Do you clean them once in a while, just soap and water and dry? I had to resort to rain gloves one round a couple weeks ago, but I usually just rotate between two gloves, alternating after every hole - that keeps them reasonably dry. Doesn't cost any more, as two gloves will last twice as long as one.

Hambone Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 Cord grips always help more in wet or humid weather. I use GP Z-grips and love them. Also, like someone suggested rain gloves work great too. The more wet they get, the more they grip. Quote "Good, good?" Link to comment
ChitownM2 Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 Sounds like you need some new grips as the club shouldn't be slipping even if you're playing in the rain. If it really is that bad, cord grips may help, but I've also found this stuff works pretty well on your hands. It doesn't completely eliminate the need to change gloves on a really hot day but is a huge improvement to using nothing. https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B085KKF2KY/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Quote Link to comment
Josh Ross Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 I'm glad I'm not the only one. I use full cord grips, dry my hands constantly, keep fresh, clean grips on at all times, and I still struggle on really humid days with the club moving a bit in my right hand. I've had to get a rain glove for the right hand to use on those days. In the past I've used this stuff called Dry Hands but it didn't help a ton.

den748 Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 I started bringing a baseball rosin bag with me for days like that. Also have done the rotating gloves. All work to varying levels.

Larryd3 Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 try a product called Dry Hands, works really well in the humidity here. I also use a glove and between the 2, no issues Quote TM Sim2 Max 10.5 Ping G410 5 wood Ping G410 7 & 9 woods PXG Gen 5 0311P 5-gap PXG forged 54 & 58 wedges PXG Operator H w/ BGT Stability shaft Link to comment
garyt1957 Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 Rain gloves are likely the answer Quote Link to comment
tony@CIC Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 19 hours ago, cnosil said: don't know how old your grips are; they may need to be replaced Great starting point. My hands sweat a lot and I occasionally play in the rain. Making sure my grips are replaced on a regular basis has helped tremendously. Note in both of those conditions - I don't use a glove and never lost my grip (GP MCC+4's) Quote Left Hand orientation SIM 2 D Max with Fujikura Air Speeder Shaft Cobra Radspeed 3W/RIptide Shaft 410 Hybrids 22*, 26* Cobra Speed Zone 6-GP/Recoil ESX 460 F3 Shafts SM7 54* Wedge Glide 3.0 60* Wedge O Works putter V3 NX9-HD - 4 Wheel EZGO TXT 48v cart - too many shoes to list and so many to buy And BAG Boy Golf Balls: Vice Pro Plus 2020 Official Tester Beginning Driver Speed - 78 2019 Official Tester 410 Driver 2018 Official Tester C300 Link to comment
MWL_9 Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 I run into this issue as well this time of year. I have a Gatorade towel I use just for my face, forearms, and hands (wash after every round). I also rotate between two gloves throughout the round. Velcro them to my bag or cart to help them air dry.
