Velcro grips

[williamalex1]

Would it be within the rules to have Velcro strip permanently attached to your club grips and gloves.????.

Just a thought after being drenched today and going through 4 gloves and still unable to get a decent grip.

No falls foul on rule 14-3. Get rain glove.

See Appendix 4. Gloves must be "plain' and amongst the things that would not be allowed is material on the glove that adheres to material on the grip;

Mac wets are the answer when it's really torrential and you want the grip from both hands. I can't recommend them enough

Typing too fast gives you the hiccups.

They're based in Lanark so I'm sure you could probably contact them direct to sort something out.

Now I never knew that - probably as I'd never thought about it and so never investigated. So in the rain I can apply stuff to my hands and and grip to improve adhesion. hmmm.
