An improved golf club comprising a shaft with a head at the tip end and a grip at the butt end, the grip adapted to be held by the hands of the player and formed of an elastomeric material having a plurality of curved grooves, the grooves being in a first set oriented generally axially at the butt end of the grip and therebeyond in a second set generally axially on the bottom surface and generally circumferentially on the top surface and further including a third set of grooves oriented generally circumferentially at the tip end of the grip.

A grip positionable over the butt end of a golf club shaft and adapted to be held by the hands of a golfer, the grip having a front surface and a bottom surface oriented on the club shaft such that said front surface is engaged predominantly by both the heel of one hand of the golfer and the inner surface of the thumb of another hand of the golfer and said bottom surface is engaged predominantly by the inner surfaces of the remaining fingers of each of the hands during the address of the golf ball, the grip being fabricated of an elastomeric material and of a generally cylindrical configuration with a generally closed butt end of an enlarged exterior diameter and with an open tip end of a generally reduced exterior diameter for being removably fit over the butt end of the shaft, the interior of the grip being of an essentially common diameter for frictional engagement with the butt end of the shaft over which it is placed, the exterior diameter of the grip being of a decreasing diameter from the butt end to the tip end, the grip being formed with a plurality of smoothly curved, generally continuous grooves oriented to prevent slippage, the grooves being oriented generally axially over the length of the grip adjacent to the butt end for between about 26 percent and about 31 percent of the length of the grip, the grooves being oriented generally circumferentially over the length of the grip adjacent the tip end for between about 19.5 and about 23.5 percent of the length of the grip with between about 38.5 percent and about 47.5 percent of the central length of the grip having generally circumferential grooves on its front surface and generally axial grooves on its bottom surface, said generally circumferential grooves across the central length being curved with their centers of curvature facing the tip end side of the grip.
