Ian Poulter
@IanJamesPoulter http://twitvid.com/LG2UA [13] - Video of me regripping my White cobra ZL driver 5 layers under right hand & 2 under left. Enjoy
@IanJamesPoulter By having 5 layers under the right hand & 2 under the left it evens out the taper a little bit, it feels much more comfortable in my hands
@IanJamesPoulter The rest of my irons will get regripped tomorrow i want fresh grips on for the next run of tournaments.
@IanJamesPoulter Slightly thickening the grips has no relevance to ball flight or shape at all, its purely to even out the taper.
