Abstract
A hand grip for a hand-held implement, e.g., a golf club, that consists of a rigid cap and a one-piece flexible foam tubular sleeve. The cap is structured to cooperate with the implement's handle shaft for locating and retaining the grip on that shaft, and for protecting the end of the shaft and the outer end of the foam sleeve. The one-piece flexible foam sleeve, preferably with an outer skin thereon to resist abrasion, provides a cushioned grip to the user. A novel method is also provided by which the rigid cap and foam sleeve grip are fabricated.
