Get a Grip on Your Sunscreen

Every "expert" golfer and coaching manual / video will have their own ideas about what is the most important aspect of playing great golf and what you need to do to improve. But one thing no one will ever ignore is the importance of your grip. If you don't grip your clubs properly, you will never be able to play to your true potential. One thing that can adversely affect your grip is using a sunscreen that is greasy or tacky. This is actually the number one reason given for not using sunscreen while out on the course.

Don't Strangle Your Clubs

There are many grips you can use, like the Vardon Overlap Grip, Interlocking Grip, Ten Finger (also known as the Baseball) Grip and others. The grip you use is a matter of personal choice and how it affects your play. However you hold your clubs, the amount of pressure you exert can affect how you hit the ball. Gripping the clubs too tight can result in weak shots with a pronounced slice. A lighter grip gives you more flexibility of the wrist which is an important factor in both power and accuracy. Light pressure also increases the chances of squaring the club face at the point of impact as the club rotation is smoother.

Using a scale of 1 to 10 with 10 being the tightest possible grip, most golfers find that a pressure of 4 or 5 gives them the best results in terms of power and control. More often than not, using sunscreen affects the way you grip the club, often leaving a greasy or tacky feeling on your hands. This is the biggest reason given for not using sunscreen on the golf course. But, any dermatologist will tell you the importance of using a full spectrum sunscreen daily. Med3, a skin care company which focuses on the needs of golfers has the answer.

Why Is Med3 So Focused On Golf?

Few people are as passionate about their sport as golfers. And few pay as heavy a price for their passion, in terms of skin damage and premature aging, as do golfers. med|3 products have been created to give golfers the freedom to pursue their passion without having to pay the heavy price.

Few sportspeople spend as much time out in the open as golfers. Sun, wind and pollutants that exist even on pristine golf courses are constantly attacking their skin. What they require are skin care products that have been specially created for their needs. That's why our Moisturizing Cream contains a full spectrum sun block to protect from both UVA and UVB rays.
