A grip for the handle of a golf club having a single panel that is wrapped about an underlisting sleeve comprising a cap. The panel further comprises an inner layer and an outermost layer, the inner layer comprising one of a fabric and a polymer. The panel is adhered to the underlisting sleeve such that the outermost layer in the top region contacts the underside portion of the cap. The unitary grip reduces impact shock and also provides a feeling of tackiness in the manner of a spirally wrapped grip.

What is claimed is: 1. A grip for a golf club, such grip comprising: a resilient underlisting sleeve having a main portion, a top end, and a bottom end, the sleeve further comprising: a cap positioned at the top end and defining an underside portion positioned between the end of the cap and the bottom end of the sleeve; and a hole configured to receive the end of a golf club shaft and positioned near the bottom end; a single panel comprising a top region having skiving along the circumferential length of the region, a bottom region, and two side regions, wherein the panel further comprises: a configuration corresponding to the exterior shape of the resilient sleeve; and an inner layer and an outermost layer, the inner layer comprising one of a fabric and a polymer; the panel being adhered to the underlisting sleeve such that the outermost layer in the top region contacts the underside portion of the cap and the skiving in the top region extends around the sleeve adjacent the cap includes both the inner layer and the outermost layer. 2. The grip of claim 1, wherein the outermost layer defines a friction enhancing pattern. 3. The grip of claim 2, wherein the friction enhancing pattern is heat compressed into the outermost layer. 4. The grip of claim 1, wherein the inner layer is made of felt and comprises an inner face. 5. The grip of claim 4, wherein substantially all of the inner face of the felt layer is adhered to the underlisting sleeve. 6. The grip of claim 1, wherein the underlisting sleeve further comprises a centering marker. 7. The grip of claim 6, wherein the centering marker is a line. 8. The grip of claim 1, wherein the outermost layer in the top region is substantially flush with the underside portion of the cap. 9. The grip of claim 1, wherein the bottom end of the underlisting sleeve further comprises a flexible lip that cooperates with the main portion of the underlisting sleeve to form a slot. 10. The grip of claim 9, wherein the bottom end of the panel is retained by the slot. 11. The grip of claim 1, wherein the underside portion further comprises a downwardly facing surface and wherein the top region of the single panel contacts the downwardly facing surface. 12. A method of making a grip for a golf club, the method comprising: providing an underlisting sleeve having a main portion, a top end, a bottom end, a cap defining an underside portion and positioned near the top end, and a hole configured to receive the end of a golf club shaft and positioned near the bottom end; providing a grip material having at least an inner layer and an outermost layer, the inner layer comprising one of a fabric and a polymer; configuring the grip material so that the grip material forms a single panel having a top region, a bottom region, and two side regions, the panel corresponding to the exterior shape of the resilient sleeve; skiving across the top region of the panel including both the inner layer and the outermost layer; adhering the panel to the underlisting sleeve; and positioning the panel on the underlisting sleeve such that the outermost layer in the top region contacts the underside portion of the cap and the skiving across the top region extends around the sleeve adjacent the cap. 13. The method of claim 12, further comprising the step of heat compressing a friction enhancing pattern into the outermost layer. 14. The method of claim 12, wherein the step of providing the panel further includes providing a panel where the inner layer is felt. 15. The method of claim 12, wherein the step of providing the underlisting sleeve further includes providing an underlisting sleeve with a centering line. 16. The method of claim 12, wherein the positioning step further includes positioning the panel such that the underside of the cap and the outermost layer in the top region are substantially flush. 17. The method of claim 12, wherein the step of providing the underlisting sleeve further comprises providing an underlisting sleeve wherein the bottom end of the underlisting sleeve further comprises a flexible lip that cooperates with the main portion of the underlisting sleeve to form a slot. 18. The method of claim 17, wherein positioning step further comprises the step of positioning the bottom end of the panel within the slot.
