3) your grips are worn and need to be replaced
Edz, My current clubs are fairly new (purchased 5/06) and the grips are the standard ones that came with my Callaway® X18's and look to be in great shape. Usually I re-grip every new season.
At 6-3" 200lbs I do have fairly large hands but not to the point where it's noticeable.

I will LOOK to make sure I am keeping the club more under the heel pad of my hand and not in the cup.
With my old swing I never had this problem.
Funny, I didn't even know they made grips for larger or smaller
hands, nobody ever asked me that before.

Thanks again.

Rich
