ABSTRACT:
A putter grip has at least one and preferably two stabilizing members each at least selectively extending generally radially outwardly from one of the front and rear surfaces of the body of the grip and each presenting a bottom surface which is designed to be engaged by a finger of a golfer. The stabilizing members help assure that the golf club will not twist or turn during a putting stroke and thus enhance the ability of a golfer to strike the ball squarely and to drive it along the intended line of travel. In the preferred case in which two stabilizing members are employed, one is preferably located slightly below the level of the other, and the bottom surfaces of both are curved so as to maximize comfort to the user. In a first preferred embodiment, the stabilizing members are molded integrally with the body of the grip. In a second preferred embodiment, the stabilizing members are pivotally attached to the body and are movable from a retracted, storage position to a raised, operative position.
