ABSTRACT:
A grip for an elongated shaft, especially a golf club, having a main portion with an inner surface, an outer surface opposite to said inner surface, an upper end, a lower end opposite said upper end, a first side, and a second side opposite said first side. Each of the inner and outer surfaces extend between the first and second ends and between the first and second sides. The main portion has a thickness extending between the inner and outer surfaces that gradually tapers in a first direction from a thickened area adjacent the upper end to a thinner area adjacent the lower end. A first fastener is coupled to the inner surface and a second fastener is coupled to the outer surface. The main portion is movable between an open position wherein the first and second fasteners are spaced from each other and a closed position wherein the first and second fasteners are releasably attached. The main portion forms a hollow, substantially tubular member open at both the upper end and the lower end when the main portion is in the closed position. The grip is preferably used on an elongated shaft such as a golf club, and is preferably used in combination with an existing, permanent grip.
