Mighty Grip
Mighty Grip was created to improve and enhance bare handed grip. It is safe, anti-slip sweat proof and does not transfer, pill or stain.
The product is great for golf especially when playing in hot, humid or wet conditions. Just a small application of Mighty Grip on bare hands means you no longer need messy chalk, resins, talc's, creams, pastes, waxes or sprays.
Freedom Grips
One of the hottest products in golf, the Freedom Golf Grip is an oversized putter grip used with great success by K.J. Choi and other noted tour players such as Colin Montgomerie, Stuart Appleby and Miguel Angel Jimenez. The large surface area of the grip allows more of the hands to contact the grip and hold it lightly, thereby avoiding strangling the putter and yipping shorter putts. Similarly the soft hands allow a smooth rhythmical stroke resulting in closer longer putts.
Golf Fitness Product - Super Magnetic back Support
Our look at an increasingly popular treatment known as magnetic therapy and in particular the super magnetic back support which can benefit golfers by being worn before, after or even during the round.
LinksPutt, practice putting mat
The revolutionary new indoor practice putting map, the LinksPutt system allows you to simply add realistic contour to your practice mat meaning you can practice all of those tricky breaking putts that other indoor mats don't allow.
