Has Gorilla Gold been tested in real rain conditions?

Yes. Golf Digest's Jeff Patterson used Gorilla Gold during a national tournament played in a downpour and reported, 'we had no problems in a downpour.' The all-natural resin formula is specifically designed to create moisture-resistant tack in wet conditions.

Can I use Gorilla Gold with rain gloves?

Yes. Gorilla Gold enhances the performance of rain gloves by adding a moisture-resistant tackified layer. Apply it to the glove surface for even more secure grip in heavy rain.

How often should I reapply Gorilla Gold during a wet round?

In light rain or heavy humidity, towel dry your hands and grip with a golf or moisture absorbing towel, then apply Gorilla Gold. One application can last several holes. Reapply whenever you feel your grip confidence declining. The towel is reusable, so frequent application is easy and practical.

Golf Grip Aid for Rain and Wet Weather

Gorilla Gold is a grip-enhancing towel that keeps golfers in control when rain, dew, and wet conditions threaten to ruin a round. Golf Digest tested Gorilla Gold during a national tournament downpour and reported confident grip throughout. The all-natural resin formula creates a moisture-resistant tackified feel that actively repels water, so your hands and grips stay secure shot after shot.

The problem

Rain play is the ultimate grip challenge. Water saturates gloves, floods grip surfaces, and makes every swing a gamble. Standard rain gloves help but still lose effectiveness when truly soaked. Towels can only dry what is already wet; they cannot prevent re-saturation. Golfers who push through wet rounds without a moisture-resistant solution risk costly mishits, lost distance, and dangerous club releases.

How Gorilla Gold helps

Real-world use cases

Playing Through Rain

When rain hits mid-round and quitting is not an option, Gorilla Gold creates a moisture-resistant barrier that keeps your grip secure. Tested and proven in tournament downpours by Golf Digest.

Early Morning Dew Rounds

Dawn tee times mean wet grips from dew. Apply Gorilla Gold before your first swing to create a tackified surface that sheds moisture and gives you confident control from hole one.

Humid Coastal Courses

Seaside and coastal courses bring constant humidity and salt air that degrade grip surfaces. The all-natural resin formula cuts through ambient moisture to maintain reliable tack.

Tournament Weather Resilience

USGA approved and R&A conforming, Gorilla Gold is your legal competitive advantage when weather turns against the field. Stay confident while others struggle with slipping grips.
