re: Oversized grips, anyone tried them?

In my opinion grip fitting is the most neglected part of the fitting process but it's one of the most important as it's the only thing that your hands actually touch. Most gloves sizes sold in stores are XXL, XL, large and medium large but most people use a standard grip which is way to small. I wear a large glove and use oversized or jumbo grips and recommend that almost all my students go to a larger grip size. Tension is the biggest enemy in golf and when the grip is too small you naturally have to squeeze tighter to hold it producing tension in the hands and forearms. When you fill your hand so that your muscles relax, you have less tension. You never get the full athletic potential out of a muscle if it is tense. I personally believe, when in doubt, go bigger.
