Premium Golf Grips Kings Park
Your swing shouldn’t be a battle against slippery, worn-out grips. When your grips work with you instead of against you, everything changes. You’ll feel the difference immediately – better control in wet conditions, consistent hand placement, and the confidence to swing freely without worrying about the club slipping.
That’s what proper grips do. They become an extension of your hands, not a distraction from your game. You’ll notice improved accuracy, better distance control, and fewer frustrating shots caused by grip pressure that’s too tight or clubs that twist in your hands.
Nassau Golf Kings Park NY
Since 1980, we’ve been the Long Island destination for golfers who want equipment that actually works. Robert Chorne, our owner and golf expert, designs and engineers patented golf equipment that helps players at every level achieve better performance.
We’re not just selling grips – we’re solving the problems that keep golfers from playing their best. Our team understands Long Island’s unique playing conditions, from the humidity at Sunken Meadow to the coastal winds that can make grip security crucial.
You won’t find generic solutions here. Every grip installation is matched to your playing style, hand size, and the conditions you face most often on Long Island courses.
Golf Grip Installation Process
First, we assess your current grips and discuss your playing habits. Are you dealing with slippage in wet conditions? Feeling like you’re gripping too tightly? We identify the specific issues affecting your game.
Next comes grip selection. We’ll match you with grips that suit your hand size, swing speed, and playing conditions. Tour Edition grips for serious players, comfort grips for those with joint concerns, or all-weather options for year-round Long Island golfers.
Installation happens with professional precision. We remove old grips without damaging your shafts, apply proper tape and solvent, and ensure perfect alignment. Your clubs will be ready to play within 30 minutes, with grips that feel like they were made for your hands.

Golf Grip Options Kings Park
Tour Edition grips provide superior comfort and control for golfers who demand the best. These grips offer unparalleled performance in both dry and wet conditions – crucial for Long Island’s variable weather.
Rubber grips work well for most recreational players, offering good feel and durability. Corded grips excel in humid conditions common near the Long Island Sound. Hybrid grips combine cord in the upper hand for control with softer rubber below for comfort.
Custom fitting ensures proper grip size. Too small and you’ll grip too tightly, affecting swing speed and distance. Too large and you lose control and accuracy. We measure your hands and match grip size to your swing characteristics, just like the professionals do.
How often should I replace my golf grips in Kings Park's climate?
Most golfers should replace grips every 40-60 rounds or annually, whichever comes first. Long Island’s humid summers and salt air can accelerate grip wear, especially if you play courses near the water like Sunken Meadow.
Signs it’s time include slippery feel, visible wear patterns, or finding yourself gripping the club tighter than usual. If cleaning doesn’t restore tackiness, replacement is overdue. Regular players who golf year-round may need replacement twice annually.
What's the difference between rubber and corded golf grips?
Rubber grips offer softer feel and work well in moderate conditions. They’re comfortable for golfers who prefer lighter grip pressure and play mostly in dry weather.
Corded grips feature textured material that provides superior traction in wet or humid conditions. They’re preferred by golfers with faster swing speeds who need maximum control. The trade-off is firmer feel, which some players find less comfortable during long practice sessions.
Hybrid grips combine both materials – cord in the upper hand where you need control during the downswing, and softer rubber in the lower hand for comfort and feel.
Can you install grips on any brand of golf clubs?
Yes, we install grips on all major golf club brands and shaft types, including steel and graphite shafts. The installation process is similar regardless of manufacturer, though we adjust techniques for graphite shafts to prevent damage.
We stock grips in standard (.600) and midsize (.580) core sizes to fit different shaft specifications. If you have oversized or specialty shafts, we can source the appropriate grips and ensure proper fit.
Our experience with various club brands means we know the specific considerations for each manufacturer’s shaft designs and grip requirements.
How long does professional grip installation take?
Professional installation typically takes 10-15 minutes per grip once we begin the process. For a full set of 14 clubs, expect about 2-3 hours total including setup and drying time.
The grips need approximately 30 minutes to set properly before you can use the clubs. We recommend waiting at least an hour before playing to ensure the strongest bond between grip and shaft.
If you’re having multiple sets done or need custom sizing, we can provide time estimates when you schedule your appointment. Rush service may be available for urgent needs.
What grip size should I choose for my hands?
Grip size depends on your hand measurements and playing style, not just comfort preference. We measure from your wrist to middle fingertip and around your hand to determine proper sizing.
Standard grips work for most average-sized hands. Midsize grips suit larger hands or golfers who prefer reduced hand action. Oversize grips can help players with arthritis or those who grip too tightly.
Proper sizing affects your swing mechanics. Too small causes over-active hands and hooks. Too large restricts hand action and can cause slices. We’ll test different sizes to find what promotes your best swing.
Do new grips really improve golf performance?
Absolutely. Fresh grips eliminate the need to grip tightly, which increases clubhead speed and distance. You’ll also gain better control and accuracy when your hands don’t slip during the swing.
Worn grips force compensation in your swing mechanics. You unconsciously grip harder, which restricts wrist action and reduces power. New grips restore proper feel and allow natural swing tempo.
The improvement is usually immediate and noticeable. Most golfers report better confidence, especially in wet conditions, and more consistent ball striking within the first round after installation.
