Are your clubs ready for the Golf Season? When was the last time you had your clubs re-gripped? Eighteen months is the absolute maximum you should wait to change your grips because slick or worn grips can have a negative impact on your game, like driving on worn tires. Maintaining proper grip pressure is essential in making a smooth swing, but worn grips require tighter grip pressure which inhibits the swing. Worn grips are especially slippery in wet conditions. Flighted Match Play Tournament - June through August The 2016 Flighted Match Play Tournament is an individual match play event. All eligible players will be placed in flights of 8 based on their June 1, 2016 handicap index. All flights will play off the low handicap of the pairing. There will be a men’s and women’s division.

Degradation is gradual, so you may not even realize how worn they’ve gotten. Stop in either Golf Shop for more information or to have a Pro look at your grips.
