What is claimed is: 1. A method of making a grip for the handle of a golf club, such method including the steps of: providing a resilient underlisting sleeve comprising an integral nipple, the sleeve configured to be telescopically slipped onto the handle of a golf club; providing a single panel having a main portion of substantially uniform thickness that includes a thinner polyurethane outside layer bonded to a thicker felt inside layer, such panel defining an inner face, a first side edge, and a second side edge, the panel having a configuration corresponding to the exterior shape of the resilient sleeve; skiving the first side edge of the panel; skiving the second side edge of the panel; wrapping the single panel about the underlisting sleeve; adhering the inner face of the panel to the underlisting sleeve, wherein the panel defines a seam extending from a first end of the panel to a second end of the panel; and covering the seam with a deposit of polyurethane. 2. A method of claim 1, wherein the step of adhering the inside layer to the sleeve further comprises adhering the inside layer directly to the underlisting sleeve. 3. A method of claim 1, further comprising the step of buffing the deposit smooth. 4. A method of claim 1, further comprising the step of forming a friction enhancing pattern on an outer surface of the polyurethane layer. 5. A method of claim 1, wherein the step of providing the panel includes the step of providing a panel in which the polyurethane layer has a thickness of approximately 0.3 millimeters to 0.5 millimeters. 6. A method of claim 1, wherein the step of providing the resilient underlisting sleeve further comprises providing an underlisting sleeve with a cap formed with a downwardly facing slot, the integral nipple being formed with an upwardly facing circumferential slot such that the outer portion of the nipple slot being defined by a peripheral lip and the step of wrapping the panel around the sleeve further comprises inserting the top edge of the panel into the cap slot to be firmly retained therein and firmly retaining the bottom edge of the panel in the nipple slot with the peripheral lip. 7. A method of claim 1, wherein the step of adhering the inside layer to the sleeve further comprises adhering the inside layer directly to the underlisting sleeve. 8. A method of claim 6, further comprising the step of forming a friction enhancing pattern on an outer surface of the polyurethane layer. 9. A method of making a grip for the handle of a golf club, such method including the steps of: providing a resilient underlisting sleeve comprising an integral nipple, the sleeve configured to be telescopically slipped onto the handle of a golf club; providing a single panel having a main portion of substantially uniform thickness that includes a thinner polyurethane outside layer bonded to a thicker felt inside layer, such panel defining an inner face, a first side edge, and a second side edge, the panel having a configuration corresponding to the exterior shape of the resilient sleeve; skiving the first side edge of the panel; skiving the second side edge of the panel; wrapping the single panel about the underlisting sleeve; adhering the inner face of the panel to the underlisting sleeve, wherein the panel defines a seam extending from a first end of the panel to a second end of the panel; forming a heat depressed channel in the outside layer exteriorially along the length of the seam to reinforce the seam; and covering the seam with a deposit of polyurethane. 10. A method of claim 9, wherein the step of adhering the inside layer to the sleeve further comprises adhering the inside layer directly to the underlisting sleeve. 11. A method of claim 9, further comprising the step of buffing the deposit smooth. 12. A method of claim 9, further comprising the step of forming a friction enhancing pattern on an outer surface of the polyurethane layer. 13. A method of claim 9, wherein the step of providing the panel includes the step of providing a panel in which the polyurethane layer has a thickness of approximately 0.3 millimeters to 0.5 millimeters. 14. A method of making a grip for the handle of a golf club, such method including the steps of: providing a resilient underlisting sleeve comprising an integral nipple formed with an upwardly facing circumferential slot such that the outer portion of the nipple slot being defined by a peripheral lip and a cap formed with a downwardly facing slot, the sleeve configured to be telescopically slipped onto the handle of a golf club; providing a single panel having a main portion of substantially uniform thickness that includes a thinner polyurethane outside layer bonded to a thicker felt inside layer, such panel defining an inner face, a first side edge, and a second side edge, the panel having a configuration corresponding to the exterior shape of the resilient sleeve; skiving the first side edge of the panel; skiving the second side edge of the panel; wrapping the single panel about the underlisting sleeve: inserting the top edge of the panel into the cap slot to be firmly retained therein and firmly retaining the bottom edge of the panel in the nipple slot with the peripheral lip; adhering the inner face of the panel to the underlisting sleeve, wherein the panel defines a seam extending from a first end of the panel to a second end of the panel; forming a heat depressed channel in the outside layer exteriorially along the length of the seam to reinforce the seam; and covering the seam with a deposit of polyurethane. 15. A method of claim 14, wherein the step of adhering the inside layer to the sleeve further comprises adhering the inside layer directly to the underlisting sleeve. 16. A method of claim 14, further comprising the step of buffing the deposit smooth. 17. A method of claim 14, further comprising the step of forming a friction enhancing pattern on an outer surface of the polyurethane layer. 18. A method of claim 14, wherein the step of providing the panel includes the step of providing a panel in which the polyurethane layer has a thickness of approximately 0.3 millimeters to 0.5 millimeters.
