Product for hands - playing in hot humid weather

[thepinkbomber]

Playing in hot very humid weather and hands sweat. Any product recommendations to help keep a good grip when this happens. Just regripped clubs. It's just so humid.

[Hawkeye77]

Glove and/or different grips and towel. What were you thinking beyond that?

[jut111]

Humid day = excuse to bust out the Rain gloves for me. Works great.

[hbear55]

Yep. Rain gloves.

[LyinEye]

Too easy, real leather wrap grips, a light neatsfoot oil top coating, or any ball glove oil, the night before, and you're ready to go, will stick like there's no tomorrow. No glove...

wonder if a spray on antiperspirant would work if you sprayed your hand after each 9.

You could also stick your hands into the bag of ice holding the beer...lol.

Gorilla gold grip enhancer.

Check out a product called DryHands. Works very well. I don’t like to wear a glove, as it encourages too much grip pressure for me.

I use rosin. It seems to help and is cheap.

I play in humid Florida. I sweat a lot. I play with Mizuno rain gloves. On really bad days I have to use one on each hand.

Same here, along with a rain glove for the left hand. I keep a small rosin bag in the right pocket and before each shot reach in to dry the hands a bit.

[Wooderson]

I use rosin. Get some strange looks, but it works well.

Yep. Tried the antiperspirant followed up with talc. Talking 95+ degree and major humidity for a week long tournament. The humidity was the problem versus the heat. That worked. Then applied a dry tack to keep the hands tacky, almost like preparing for a rain day.

I've tried rosin and Dry Hands. I use to go through 3 to 4 gloves per round. Now I wear a rain glove and am good to go!

[ezpz]

I've seen a legit player use rock climbing chalk instead of wearing a glove. No clue if it works in really high humidity, but could be worth a shot if your desperate. Wouldn't be wearing any black shirts though :)

I've been using Dry Hands this season to good effect. Put some on before you start to sweat for best results.

I've also been using this stuff called iTAC2, a "pole fitness grip" product - put it on your grips before a round and it helps for awhile. Completely useless if you've already started to sweat though.

No products necessary. Just keep a **_damp _**towel in your hands in between shots. I have never worn a glove and don't have a problem. The damp towel somehow takes the oils off your hands and lets you grip the club. Seriously works.

I do exactly this with a chilly pad towel and it works like a charm. I don't play a glove either and my hands are always good on each shot. I agree that I think it keeps the oil and grease off your hands which helps you maintain grip.

Fought this for years. Finally someone told me about this

I don’t know how or why it works but it’s AMAZING

This is what i do also. Works well for me.

When I played traditional rubber grips I used a product call no sweat. Spray it on wait 10 minutes and dry as a bone even in Florida in August. Now I play leather grips and they are the best custom fitting option ever. They are tacky and last several seasons. They have paid for themselves many times over because I no longer need a glove (bought 8-10 gloves a year easy playing year round in Florida with over 100 rounds a year), and no longer need to regrip clubs every year (wedges and driver sometimes 2-3 times a year). If you play year round in a hot/humid climate and are disciplined with regripping every year and using fresh supple gloves when you play do the math on what that costs you every year....leather grips will come out way ahead especially when they last 3 years or more.

[TerpFangolfer]

I also play with no glove...and have had issues in the past. Basically combo of things folks have said here...esp cool towel to wipe both hands & grips. I've never tried any spray or powder. Currently in a terrible hot & humid environment (Indonesia) and relatively few problems.

Also, I swear by my Winn Dri-tacs...just keep the grips fresh and clean and all will be good.

I have a microfiber towel on the handle of my pushcart. I push with my right hand and this keeps it dry until I'm ready to hit.

My Son uses Gamer Grip.

It's designed for people playing video games, to keep their sweaty hands from dropping the controller.

It's not messy at all.
