Golf grip with enhanced vibration transmission

A golf grip with enhanced vibration transmission, comprising:

• an elongated tubular body having an exterior surface, an interior surface, a butt end, a tip end, a length from the butt end to the tip end, and a volume of at least 100 cc;
• wherein a point along the length has a cross-section having a cross-sectional area of at least 4.75 cm2, an exterior cross-sectional radius, an interior surface radius, and within the cross-section at least one point on the exterior surface has a cross-sectional radius of at least 0.46 inches;
• wherein within the cross-section, one-third the distance from the minimum cross-sectional radius to the minimum interior surface radius is equal to a second region thickness that is constant around the exterior surface, and the second region thickness extends inward from the exterior surface to define a second region, and the balance of the cross-section defines a first region having a first region thickness;
• wherein the golf grip has an overall density of 0.45-0.65 g/cc, the second region has a second region average density of at least 0.8 g/cc, and the first region has a first region average density that is less than 75% of the second region average density;
• and
• wherein the golf grip is formed of at least a first inner layer and a second outer layer consisting of rubber compounds joined together in a compression molding process, the first inner layer has a first layer quantity of blowing agent and the second outer layer has a second layer quantity of blowing agent, and the first layer quantity of blowing agent is at least twice the second layer quantity of blowing agent.
