Why thicker as you go down? I ask because I was thinking the exact opposite for some reason. Does the softer grip impart more feel back into your hands?
Feel is subjective. My grip pressure is the same throughout the entire bag and I never grip the club with more than three fingers anyways. I dont really understand the concept of needing more grip or more feel in certain situations. As soon as you make contact with the golf ball you should know where on the face you hit it, before even looking at ball flight.
LOL "bannana hands"...I can relate to that. I'm 6'6" and have pretty big hands, but all of my clubs have the grips they came with. Should I look into thicker grips or what? Sometimes I feel like the club gets lost in my hands during my swing and I'm never terribly confident about my face angle at impact, especially with my longer irons, FWs and Driver.
I guess I can only answer that by saying go get your grip sized. I can't stand the feel of a club with a standard sized grip on it. Like I said above, it's like I'm swinging a pencil. I wear a XXL glove and I use a midsize grip plus 3 wraps of tape to get comfortable. If you have a decent proshop nearby, I'd check there. The local Golfsmith has a Golf Pride sizing station with grips from undersized (think pencil lead) to standard (a pencil) midsize (a sharpie) and jumbo ( a good cuban cigar). Plus in that setup they have the intermediate sizes (plus X wraps of tape). That was how I started to narrow down what I wanted. I started with a size on a club or two and played with it from there.
I'm playing mixed grips right now mainly because I haven't gotten around to re-gripping my non-irons. So the standard grip is still in play. I actually still hope to get ALL my clubs re-gripped with the GP NDMC, but I'll get them a little thinner as I get to the wedges for feel sake. Other than that though, I too have pretty big hands and have gone with the Mid sized grip for my irons and it feels great. I've never tried anything different and it makes a big difference to me in the feel. I was thinking about going with the mushy soft grips on the wedges, but I think I want consistency in the feel of the grip itself in the end and a matching look is just bad ass to me.
