After trying super massive grips for two years, I look at how this weird and wonderful change has affected my golf technique and my ability to cope with wrist pain in the golf swing...

I work in Industrial Maintenance. And after a long day of work and sneaking in a range session my hands were sore. I changed to these grips and after a bit of an adjustment period I love them. No pain after practicing or playing. I understand they aren't for everyone but they help me play more golf and that's a win win.

I work in the same field. And being a former baseball player it felt like home when I put them on my clubs. After being on the end of a wrench or ratchet for a day your hands stay sore. And once I switched to these it feels much better and I feel more control and face awareness on the club.

I started up golfing back in 2022, at 43yrs of age. I also did play from age 14-22 off and on. Last year I caught the golfing bug in a big way and got fitted for irons and driver. I was then asked about grip, to which I had no reply. So the tech/fitter checked me out and instantly told me to go MIDSIZE, and so I had all my clubs regripped before ever using them. (PING G430). I cannot believe the difference it has made. Instantly giving me club head control and even allowing me some more swing speed. I have even considered a OVERSIZED grip for my driver. I went with a WINN Dri-Tac oversized for my driver, and I cannot describe in words the effect. It can only be felt and seen in the ball striking improvements im making. Grips are a super huge important part of the whole enchilada, it cannot be overlooked, or disregarded. Get what you fit into and what your fingers and palms like.

My wife put oversized winn grips on her clubs as she has issues with carpal tunnel already. They make a huge difference for her. We were travelling a few weeks back and rented clubs with normal grips and she complained about her wrists throughout the round, so it's definitely helpful for people with hand/wrist problems!

@coolman5788 the winn grips are pretty spongy feeling so oversized works with her hands just fine. There's never really a worry of the club slipping out of your hand. The only real thing to worry about is just getting the club face back to square with the bigger grips. She doesn't really seem to have that issue though. May be worth trying it just to one club first (that's what we did with her 8 iron) before investing in the entire set.

I’ve played with them for years now. I don’t think I’ll ever go back. The one thing I wasn’t aware of was how heavy some the grips were. It changed my swing weight by a lot. And I played like that for several years. Last year I switched to the light version (which is same weight as standard grips) and it made a world of difference.

My handicap went from 13 down to 8 as well so something’s working technically too. I don’t really analyse it too much though. I just put it down to feeling confident because I can hit without pain. Thanks for introducing me to the idea of these in the first place Pete.

I swapped to the larger grips about a year ago and I haven't looked back. My miss tended to be a bit of a hook and after getting use to the size difference in the grips, my ball striking has been so much better! I didnt go as large as you, I ended up with the Tour Series Standard Oversize grips as the larger ones were just a bit "too much" for me. Loving the content Pete, keep it up!

I hit some balls the other day with some demo clubs that had the way oversized grips and I would need to get used to them but I had a couple shots with them that totally took me by surprise becuase I just connected and hit a bomb. Something about it really helps my striking and my normal Alice I’ve learned how to play with was gone. I’m almost due for a regrip on my irons and I think I’m just going to switch everything over to them.

I've done club assembly for a hobby and I experimented with oversized grips just to see whether they would be more comfortable. They were comfortable but I had problems releasing the club and tended to block the shot to right. I had to make swing adjustments and really struggled to shape shots with the oversized grips. Most of my friends that tried them had similar issues. They do help people with arthritis in their hands and other pain. Good to know they are helping with your hand pain. Thanks for sharing!

Mid size is still WAY too small. Each size up is only 4 wraps. Next is Jumbo, and then the Jumbo Max series. Jumbo Max - Extra Small, Small, Medium, Large, and Extra Large. They also come in three styles.. Tour, Straight, and Ultra Lights. If you don't like the idea of using Bryson's Jumbo Max - Ultra Light - Extra Large size grips... or.. have smaller hands.... then get a Jumbo Max Small, or Extra Small, it's a lot better than the toothpick size standard grips. I'm 6'4" and Love the same ones Bryson uses. Try Jumbo Max Smalls to start.

Used to play cricket and using bigger grips would be way better for control and feel (Even double/ triple grips). I've only just started and watched Bryson as you did use them and genuinely feel like bigger grips are a much better way to play. Tempted to change my Golf Bidder clubs to them. Another idea, that we changed using hockey grips on our bats and they're great. Might try that first.

As a very senior (archaic) golfer I can understand and feel the pain that you have. I have arthritis in my fingers and if I hit the ground hard with an iron then that causes the arthritis to flair-up and spoil the rest of the round. That was up to about two and a half years ago when a friend introduced me to a glove called the "BIONIC" it was advertised on Amazon for £20 so I thought at that price why not give it a go. Since I have been using this glove I have never had a problem with my arthritis on a round a golf since no matter how hard I hit the ground or the size of the divot. They are very durable and as a person who goes to the course three times a week and I now its time to get a new glove .

I finished playing college baseball this last year. When our season was canceled when Covid initially happened I got into golf, but couldn’t stand the tiny grips on the clubs. When I got my own clubs I asked the fitter if there was any bigger options similar to a baseball size grip. It makes a difference. Larger grips mean more surface contact with your hands meaning more control. I want my whole hand dexterity when playing sports.

Jumbo grip on my 8 iron snagged on the bag yesterday when I pulled it after striping a drive . I tried to catch it as it came down and the thin top line of the Miura MC-201 smashed my right index finger and drew blood. After letting my buds play their shots and getting bandaged up and wiping the blood off my jumbo grip, I parred the hole. Ended up shooting 9 over which is an excellent round for me. Switched to jumbo grips two years ago and that's the first time it's happened. Just be mindful and don't try to catch it if it snags.

I just swapped my iron grips out recently from standard to +4 golf pride grips as I had one of my Volkey wedge and really liked it... I noticed a def improvement in confidence and consistent ball striking. They allow me not to have a death grip on the club as I do have quite large hands and felt that I was "hanging" on to the slimmer profile grip. Now my right hand can be more of a guide than holding on. I feel that the larger grip added a bit more swing weight to the irons allowing to hit more down on the ball and it also smoothed out my tempo and rhythm and actually swing a bit easier and smoother while still maintaining swing speed. Not tested with any sort of swing software but I've been playing golf for quite a long time and I really enjoy the change. I also have a larger +4 grip on my driver that I've had for years and I've loved how that has helped me swing more neutral.

I play cross handed (right hand top) and these jumbo grips have transformed my game (Medium JumboMax Ultralites). I feel so much more in control of the club, striking the ball more consistently and the club head is rotating less meaning straighter shots, and my chipping and wedge play has improved massively, and im gaining distance the driver too. I wouldn't know what to do without these grips now

I couldn`t agree more with Peter. I wouldn´t call myself a good golfer, my handicap used to be very low though. By chance, I had the privilege to be the starter on a tour event in 2015 and there was a fog break just the moment Bryson was supposed to tee up. He was still an amateur at that time and definitely one of the most lovely golfers on tour I have met. He gave me a 15 minute talk, would rather say a lecture, into his grips and he convinced me. He gave me an email address (grips were just about to be launched) to be able to order those grips which I did. Like most people who tried the grips I know, I rather pushed the ball to the right for a few rounds. Eventually, I was able to quieten my hands and adapt my core rotation so significantly, that my ball flight got more consistent and interestingly, even longer than before. I am using them now for eight years, would never use any other grips anymore. At least rather tall people with rather big hands should always give it a try in my opinion.

Interesting about the gripping in the palm versus the fingers. I started working on my grip 2 seasons ago and fully went away from gripping it in the palm. I don't feel like it changed a lot in my swing except that I was now more aware of how I was gripping it and it makes my setup a little more consistent. Now I have to try switching back and forth at the range and see about this "holding it off more" business. As for the grip size, I'm perfectly happy and comfortable with my standard-sized grips and don't suffer from any hand or wrist pain. I did for one season but it was something to do with something that completely changed in my swing overnight that had me hitting down hard on the ball and shanking, and I practiced on mats. Thankfully, that sorted itself out in a couple range sessions.

I have been playing JumboMax UltraLite's size small since the start of the year. I ran in to an issue that when I would swing with my Standard+ that my wrist would flip through to much and the hooks came out. Yes, these grips will make be hit a block here and there, but it stopped my wrist from flipping through. Recently, my cousin was at my house who is a tennis teaching professional. I showed him my club because he is getting back in to golf after tearing his act and mcl. He loved the grip because it was the closest thing to a tennis racket handle. He has now installed them on his clubs and loves them.

The biggest plus for me is reduced grip pressure, what a revelation and relief, I no longer have sore hands after a round of golf makes holding my beer more enjoyable 😂 ⛳️ 🍺

This is a cool video! I'm going through a deep dive with my equipment currently and I think a lot of it comes down to the way people feel the club. You mentioned it's like a cricket bat I think of it in terms of Swords or baseball bat. So in baseball what they have are contact hitters which would be like Pete Rose Rod Carew George Brett not known for being home renters but they could always get the bat on the ball they use what is referred to as a balanced bat or a bat that has more weight toward the handle. Home Run hitters say Aaron judge or Mark McGwire big strong people swing what they call an end loaded bat which is going to feel a little more like a hammer or something obviously where the weights out at the end. Well essentially I think all the people that try the bigger grips and think they feel funky or the people that prefer an end loaded feel. So I think it really comes down to how the person feels the club. So like the same idea with the swords big strong people use big heavy swords or axes etc. But say for example Samurai used katanas which are much more balanced swords so it all depends on the person's strength and how they want to use the implement. So I know for me personally I prefer much more weight toward the grip side kind of like Bryson does I believe his driver is a B9 or something like that and swing weight. Do you notice a counterbalance effect on your clubs too or did you even it out? Because now my understanding is a lot of Pros use high balance point clubs but then they add more weight to the head so in essence they get to swing a heavier Club but they can feel it the same.

I played these grips for 3 years or so and played very good with them. I switched irons and thought I would just stick with a regular oversized grip. I found myself spraying alot of shots and just didnt have alot of consistency hitting the clubs straight. I play to an under 5 handicap and WAS scratch. After trying several things changing my swing and holding club face closed on the backswing, on a whim, I put one of the old medium sized ultralite grips on my 9 iron. 1st round with the 9 iron got a hole in 1 on the fly, nothing but the bottom of the cup. Walked off the golf course and ordered a full set of ultralites to go on my PXG's!! Buy one grip and try it!!!

I changed early this summer with my new club fitting! I'm 66 years old and my hands have been hurting from being a mechanic for years! The jumbo grips were so much more comfortable and my fingers don't hurt at the end of the round!

I have never tried these grips but I may do it in the future. I have mid-sized grips right now and I have noticed that they feel miles better for me in terms of control and comfort. I had broken my ring and pinky knuckles on my right hand so when I would interlock my left index finger and right pinky, my hand would hurt really bad after a 9-hole round of golf. Now I can play 18-holes with relative comfort.

Great video Finchy 👍Nice to see you on the JumboMax train, thought you were done there for a while. Yeah, I am a JumboMax convert, started with the STR8 Ultralite and now using STR8 Tour which are heavier - it's great to counter balance in my driver to swing the club head faster. For chipping and pitching, these things are GR8 - because it allows me to put less pressure on the swing and that, in turn, allows better club head control especially on those ultra delicate 10 foot "into the hole" chips

Used to play with standard grips until I tried oversize grips the other week...game changer. Got a set straight on my clubs. 2 way miss is now just straight or a fade which I like...I see a fade on every shot a draw feels out of control to me... Never shot under 80 before. Since changing I've done 76,78,76 in my last 3 rounds... No twisting of the grip through impact. Its like magic. I've not got big hands, I wear a medium glove but i feel like im holding somthing instead of sqeezing a thin stick... They just work for me...

I was never taught a grip style. I started taking some lessons recently and asked why I destroyed my gloves. I have a palm grip. Believe me, the new gloves don't last long and become ruined within one large bucket of balls at the range. Yes, I am trying to get back into golf with a 15 year hiatus but changing my grip entirely or going out and perhaps eyeballing this grip style...maybe worth a go? Appreciate the video.

I have this grip on my 4 hybrid that my dad handed down to me and I love the way it feels. Its also my favorite club in the bag cause I can consistently hit it decent unlike my irons ( which have jumbo grips but they still feel small to me). I don't know why its just something about them personally that I like

I have jumbo cp2s on driver and woods. Recently put them on a wedge and immediately all wedges. Irons are next, but I need new irons. When I first started golfing the clubs would spin in my hands with standard size. I went to mid size and saw a huge improvement with control. Now the mid size fell tiny on my irons

Almost exactly one year ago (August/September 23’) I put these on all of my clubs except my 60-degree wedge. I highly doubt I’ll ever go back to the normal ones. For reference, I’m 6-1 and wear XL gloves. If you have small hands they might/probably don’t make sense. If you have big hands give them a try, 100%. I also put the largest grip I could find on my putter, which also helped. I’ll probably slap one on my 60-degree some day.

I have very small hands. A few years back, I bought a secondhand driver with a midsize grip. I found it near impossible to close the face on my driver with it. I swore I would never use large grips because of that. I was looking for new irons, and the fitter turned me onto a used sad. The catch, they had midsize grips. I hit them pretty well though except the long irons. After a couple of months, I put standard grips on the long irons but kept mids for 6-PW and put them on my other wedges too. For me, that is a good balance, it has helped with my arthritis too.

Thicker grips absorb more vibrations. Same with graphite shafts. If you play enough golf something will start aching whether shoulder, elbow, wrist or hand.... Reducing vibrations will go a long way.

I've been running Med Jumbo's for about 5 years now. I don't play much (8-12 times a year) but I feel real comfortable with these grips. I keep a 7 handicap pretty consistently and for some reason I don't need to wear a glove with the bigger grips unless it is a really sweaty or wet day

Peter, having some arthritis in two of my fingers on the left hand so I have just put on two jumbo maxes in the size large which was recommended using their sizing guide online, regrettably there’s no golf store near me that that carries all these sizes, so that I could feel them in my hand first, I think that would be helpful. But anyway they do feel quite a bit bigger but I didn’t have any problem hitting the ball straight with either of them on my six iron or my driver but of course I still had to use my other clubs so I ended up with finger pain at the end and I’m not sure if it would be any better with larger grips or not? Thanks for the info and if you have any other other input on arthritis in the fingers as it relates to golf grips I would appreciate it. Thanks

I had been using the midsize grips but haven’t been out in two years in which time I developed arthritis in my right hand ..not good for a left handed golfer some days I can’t close my fist. So I had a jumbo grips installed on my clubs and what a difference it makes. Not only did it not hurt my game it’s actually made it better. This might not be for everyone but if your experiencing pain in your hands while golfing you might want to give some jumbo grips a chance…✌🏼✌🏼✌🏼

I've recently realized that part of the problem with my irons is a feeling that I'm fighting the grips. My dad (72) started putting jumbo Golf Pride grips on his clubs a few years back and, while they certainly felt a bit odd when I tried them out, I didn't feel like I was fighting them as much as my current grips. My new driver has a midsize grip that feels great, and when I get fitted for a new set of irons next year, I might move up a size or two in grip diameter.
