A shock absorbing grip for a golf club having a strip (S) formed of a polyurethane layer (26) bonded to a felt layer (22). The strip is spirally wrapped about the golf club handle with the side edges being formed with recessed reinforcement side edges (42,44) which are overlapping to form a water retarding joint between the side edges of the strip. The felt layer (21) may be formed with an upwardly extending central groove along its length to form a spiral depression (102) when the strip is spirally wrapped about a handle. IMAGE
