About Us

"We believed that a physical training device for correct hand positioning was needed."

As both tour professionals and elite coaches, we know firsthand that teaching Grips is not an easy task! We believed that a physical training device for correct hand positioning would solve this dilemma for coaches and players.
 
We began making molds for our students and the grip corrections took far less time to master. Shortly after, Grip MD was born!
