Think about it: This is the only place you touch the club. From material and style to texture and size, having a comfortable grip is key to keeping your club face following the ideal path. Here\u2019s how to determine if you need to replace your grips before you ship golf clubs off to your <a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/2y5pKUU\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">next play destination<\/a>:<\/p>\n<h2>How Do They Fit?<\/h2>\n<p>You should know if your grips are improperly fit almost immediately. Hit the driving range and test out your different grips in a variety of scenarios. How does your interlocking grip feel during a drive? What about while chipping? If you\u2019re unable to treat your clubs as though you\u2019re handling a delicate bird, chances are you need to get your grips <a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/2xtB7Gv\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">fit to your hands<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>Do They Look Worn?<\/h2>\n<p>Wear and tear is just a part of the game. As friction happens between your hands, gloves, and grip, they will naturally wear down. However, to keep your game at its best, you should address this issue as soon as possible. Cracks and faded or bare spots are the most common signs of wear.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-4744 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.shipsticks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Depositphotos_28159201_m-2015-1.jpg\" alt=\"Should I replace my grips before I ship golf clubs\" width=\"999\" height=\"662\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.shipsticks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Depositphotos_28159201_m-2015-1.jpg 999w, https:\/\/www.shipsticks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Depositphotos_28159201_m-2015-1-370x181.jpg 370w, https:\/\/www.shipsticks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Depositphotos_28159201_m-2015-1-740x362.jpg 740w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 999px) 100vw, 999px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Are They Slippery?<\/h2>\n<p>Golf isn\u2019t an easy game.
