UL, the multi compound type is the best of corded and rubber grip
great for wet weather and yet soft enuf to use.

Sweaty palms? If yes, go for full corded or multi-compound.

Tour velvet is the most basic grip one can have. Nothing really special and the grip is not very tacky. I would not recommend it.

Tour wrap is a preference. Some like it, some don't. It depends on the individual.

Of course, if your hands are large like mine, go for mid-sized grips. However, choice of colours are very limited.

There is also a choice between ribbed or round grips. Ribbed is v-shaped along the fingers. Gives the feeling that your right index finger is curled up.

My recommendation would be to go for Multi-compound (BLUE). It is very durable and BLUE is the colour of our team.

Cheers!

It also depends on what type of gloves you are using. Leather, synthetic or microfibre. Each type will perform differently on the types of grip. The most important is to be able to do its job...hold the club during your full swing. Leather/sunthetic gloves with rubber grip may slip off when it's wet.

Multi-compound is the latest technology which is the combo of materials so that it may suit different types of gloves. So is the microfibre glove which gives good grip with dry and wet weather. Both are designed for all weather conditions.

Just my 2 cents, Happy shopping!!

Bro, mind sharing what are the gloves with microfibre? I have been using FJ tropi-cool since day one, and its very comfortble for me, but not very good when wet.
