Ever since last year, I have been fighting with a blister on the index finger of my right hand (I'm a righty, so its my none golf hand). Typically, I just try to remember to put on a band-aid on the spot prior to a round or a driving range session. But today I forgot and it formed and popped while hitting some balls...

Just curious if anyone else deals with this and how they have tried to stop it or deal with it...

Just loosen the grip, you'll get use to it :D if this doesnt work try checking your grips, it might to rough for your hand i guess

Feherty "Two Gloves" Fan? Maybe it's time to sissy up and up for some baby soft Winn grips. Just KIDDING! :D

Sounds like you need to toss a roll of medical tape into your golf bag so you won't forget them home or you may need softer grips or your grip may be a bit too tight.

I do need to re-grip, might look at something softer...

What kind of medical tape? Never heard of that...

Run into your local ShoppersDrug Mart and go to the aisle that has bandaids etc. You'll find that they sell small rolls of medical tape (aka Surgical Tape). You can apply a single or double wrap like you would where you usually put your band-aid on. Just like how Tiger Woods tapes up his fingers.
