RE: ShopTalk: Grip size

[Greg Zachmann]

Hey Tom,   Out of curiosity (mine), what is your glove size. I found that relaxing my grip worked wonders for a free wheeling release of the club. Last year I noticed that after hitting about 30 or 40 balls I would unconsciously increase my grip pressure. For my swing I gain almost 10 yds. per iron when I can relax my grip pressure. I've always avoided increasing the grip size because of the "slowing down the wrist release" theory. Kind of paradoxical that increasing the grip size to the point that you can relax your grip could lead to a better wrist release. Go figger!    I am presently using Player Softie Cords on my ego booster set  (Avocet strong lofted irons) and really don't like them much. What do your Midsize Tour Velvets measure out to at say 1" and  5" down from the cap?     GZach    -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of tflan Sent: Saturday, November 30, 2002 4:25 PM To: ShopTalk Subject: ShopTalk: Grip size Hi;   Like any golfer who romances  ......... snip!
