ABSTRACT:
A training grip for positioning over a preexisting grip on a golf club shaft having an annular elongate resilient member with an open lower end, a cap on an upper end, and a longitudinal slit defined therein. The member has at least one groove for proper alignment on the club and an inner surface with a plurality of studs. At least two and preferably three contoured protrusions extend from the member for providing confirmation of proper hand position in the grip and providing abutments to discourage hand movement on the girip to enhance muscle memory. A plurality of contoured recessed portions are defined in the member for receiving and urging a user's hands into a proper position on the golf club, with the recessed portions having only a slight thickness to thereby enhance muscle memory. At least two openings are preferably defined in the member, for permitting gripping contact of the hands with the preexisting grip to assist in securing the grip to the preexisting grip. Tapered portions are provided on the member generally surrounding each of the openings.
