ABSTRACT:
A grip for use on the extending end of the shaft of a golf club is provided with an especially configured array of longitudinally extending grooves which are in direct opposition to the rotation of the golf club about the longitudinal axis of the golf club shaft to resist twisting of the golf club in the golfer's hand resulting from mishitting of a golf ball in an off center location toward the toe or heel of the golf club head. Three sets of longitudinally extending grooves are provided in the portions of the grip gripped by the golfer's left and right hands for the purpose of equalizing the static friction exertion capabilities of those portions of the grip. A first plurality of grooves extends longitudinally more than half the length of the grip. A second plurality of grooves extends longitudinally a distance less than the extending distance of the first plurality of grooves. A third plurality of grooves extends longitudinally from points spaced from the lower ends of the second plurality of grooves to a distance which is between 2/3 and 3/4 of the length of the grip. The grip may have a visual indicator by which the rotational position of the golf club when being held in a golfer's hands can be determined by visual alignment of the grip with the golfer's hands.
