主权项 1. A method of placing an overgrip on a golf club, the golf club having a shaft with a head at one end and a grip opposite the head, the method comprising the steps of: a) providing an overgrip for a golf club comprising a shell defining an interior and at least one open end and an inner layer disposed within the interior of the shell and capable of conforming to the shape of a club inserted into the interior through the at least one open end to engage the club, wherein the inner layer is formed of a memory shape material that has a concave shape and provides a secure frictional engagement with the grip, thereby avoiding slippage between the inner layer and the grip but without damaging the grip; b) inserting the grip into the at least one open end of the overgrip; and c) swinging the golf club while grasping the overgrip to strike a golf ball, wherein the overgrip shell includes a pair of opposed halves joined at a pair of opposed ends by a locking mechanism, and wherein the step of inserting the grip into the overgrip comprises the steps of: i) disengaging the locking mechanism to separate the opposed halves; ii) placing the grip within the interior of the between the opposed halves; and iii) re-engaging the locking mechanism to secure the opposed halves to one another.
