How many wraps should I put on my grips?
To install a grip, you need at least 1 wrap of grip tape to match the stated size of the grip. This means there is one layer of tape that goes around (and does not overlap) the grip, regardless of the size of the grip. What happens if you apply more than 1 wrap, you ask?
How many wraps is a jumbo grip?
Oversize/Jumbo = 1/8 inch larger than standard. To make minor adjustments in the size of a grip, some players may choose to add various layers of tape between the shaft and grip. One wrap of tape will typically add 1/64 of an inch in diameter to the grip, 3 wraps adds 1/32 and 6 wraps equals 1/16.
Should I wrap my golf grips?
A rule of thumb is more wraps of tape should be used if you prefer a lighter swing weight; fewer wraps should be employed if you want a heavier swing weight. Swing weight plays into your swing speed, tempo, transition — basically all the major factors going into a good golf swing.

The woods are typically larger than the irons. To help gain the same feel throughout, the irons use a standard grip with two wraps and the woods use a standard grip with one wrap. Also, Tiger prefers the Golf Pride Tour Velvet and sometimes the Full Cord version when playing in humid conditions. Basic but effective.
