Grip: SensoGlove
No glove, no low-score love. Put your iron fist in this velvety SensoGlove and you'll finally understand what your instructor means by a light grip.

The computer ranks your grip then visually and audibly alerts you when you're too tight or too loose. Practicing with SensoGlove can teach you the correct grip pressure for a smooth, consistent swing that delivers greater distance, enhanced precision and lower scores.
