Has anyone noticed a significant difference in their game or shot after changing to a larger or smaller grip?

I’ve noticed that I can grip the club better

I went from a standard to mid size grip and a couple of years ago and noticed a better feel with my irons.

Just know that the weight of the grip will affect your swingweight

I switched to mid-size and wish I would have done it years ago.

Lamkin full-cord grips helped me a good bit. Probably saved me a couple shots a round.

I have a high swing speed, sweaty hands, and a soft grip on clubs. It was a recipe for slippage.

Same. Definitely recommend trying new sizes and materials also.

Bigger the grip the more prone to push
Smaller the grip the more prone to draw

That has been my experience. Midsize is where it's at though.

I had a nasty hook with my driver. Put a jumbo grip with 3 extra wraps and boom...straight as an arrow. Switched to midsize and 2 extra wraps in my irons. Really makes a big difference. Bigger grip to fix hook, smaller grip to fix slice.

Smaller grips will help you draw the ball more. Bigger grips will make your hands less active. If you want to play better take some lessons. Grips will not fix your game.

I noticed that when I went to a larger grip on my irons, that it prevents me from having as much wrist action. Keeps me from slicing as bad as my regular grips.

Better grip = better golf!

Surprise surprise Gomer!

New grips on clubs that had worn grips feels like you just bought new sticks!

Many people would benefit from larger grips as I did as it allows my hands to be more relaxed during the swing

Golf Pride MCC plus 4 standard with 3 wraps on my woods and irons. MCC plus 4 midsize with 3 wraps on my wedges.

As someone else put it. It allows me not to strangle my clubs.
