What is the difference between a standard golf club grip and a mid sized grip?

Answer 1

Mid size grips are just that little but thicker. They are for players who have slightly larger hands than normal. Some people will tell you that you should go for a midsize grip if you wear a certain size of grip. But a really good way to check is, put the club in your left hand (for right handed golfers) wrap your fingers round the club, and your middle finger should just be touching your palm.

Most manufacturers have different sized midsize grips, so check before you get them fitted, if you do not need them it can have an adverse effect on your game. If you want a slightly thicker grip but you don't want midsize you can have an extra layer of grip tape added before a standard grip goes on.
