Are my grips right for me

Grip Size Test

A quick grip thickness test: Grasp the golf club with your non-dominant hand and squeeze snuggly (do not over tighten). Examine your thumb palm pad and the finger tips. A good grip size for your golf club has the finger tips of the middle and index fingers just touching the palm pad. If the fingers slide under the pad, the grip is too small, conversely, if the finger tips fall too short of the palm pad, the grip is too fat.
