Grip size on wedges?

[Journey 2 Scratch]

I game a jumbo grip on my driver and mid size on irons and wedges but was thinking of going back to standard for the wedges. I just think the bigger grip compromises a little feel around the greens and from 50 in but I could be over analyzing, wouldnt be the first time lol.

 

 

 

So I was hoping to here your thought s on bigger grips on wedges.

I game jumbo grips on all my clubs, wedges included.

I play standard with 1 extra wrap under my right hand. On my wedges I dont add the extra wrap and I stretch the grip just a smidge more. I like the extra feel myself. I think I can control it better.

So stretching the grip helps a little more with feel by just making the grip longer. What do you stretch it with?

The bigger the better

Standard size grips on the woods, midsize on the irons and wedges right now but have recently thought about going back to standard on the wedges. I feel like I may be losing a little feel around the greens with the midsize.

I am the opposite i play standard on woods standard on irons with 2 wraps of tape and midsize on my wedges.

I bought a new (to me) driver with a midsize, 2 wraps of tape on irons and standard on wedges. I feel like the smaller grip on the wedges allows me to get a little handsy around the green which I like .

It does make it longer but it also makes it thinner too. When I put grips on I make a mark where I want my grips to stop so that my iron grips all feel the same. When I regrip a wedge I add about 1/2" to my mark and just stretch the grip down to it and put some duct tape on to hold it til it dries. Like Kobes31 I like too be able to get a handsy if I wanna get cute with my wedges. I only do this to my 54* and 60* wedges. PW is used too much for full shots.

Big or small - I don't believe anyone of us can offer the pivotal answer for your wedges. I am a total feel player, and rely upon my wedge game to keep my index low. That said, I use standard size grip = +2 +4 wraps. The larger the grip the more influence the grip can have in inhibiting wrist rollover or release - the smaller grip will influence greater rollover or release.

IMO - although wraps or grip size provides comfort in my wedge play; swing weight (SW) has a greater roll. Reason my SW is D5 and LW is D9

Both my SW & LW grips are slightly stretched when installed.... Stretching them offers more area to choke down, but essentially no direct effect on feel. They are simply stretched by hand when installed; no special applicators.
