Grip slippage is an obvious concern when the rain is falling. The same goes for when it’s hot or humid (or both) and your hands are sweating. The month of May can produce both conditions, so here are a few moisture-defying products designed to improve your chances of maintaining the delicate relationship between hand and club.
Callaway’s Thermal Grip gloves ($25 a pair) — with their fleece cuff lining, microfiber outer shell and full suede palm — are specifically designed for very unpleasant weather.
SuperStroke’s S-Tech Cordgrip ($9 each) relies on a Cross-Traction texture to provide tack and feedback no matter what you’re facing.

Lastly, Lamkin’s UTX Ultra Tack grip ($10.50 each) utilizes an X pattern cord built around Tri-Layer tech for max traction.
