BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
       [0001]    1. Field of the Invention 
         [0002]    The present invention relates to a grip of golf club, and more particularly to an innovated grip covered with cotton yarn partly of golf club. 
         [0003]    2. Description of Prior Art 
         [0004]    In accordance with the conventional grips of golf club, for increasing the friction between the grip and the hands reducing the slide-off happening from the hands as striking, so many designs has came out. Just like USA Patent No.: U.S. Pat. No. 6,666,777B1 discovered a grip covered with cotton yarn partly of golf club, in which just ½ outside surface of the grip is covered with cotton yarn so that there are four fingers and palm have not contacted with the cotton-yarn covering surface of the grip as holding, causing slide-off hands happening sometimes yet, so the use effect is not good as desired. After that, the inventor had innovated that to discover a grip of golf club, referring to CN1644233A, in which the whole surface of the club grip is covered with cotton yarn so that the all fingers and palms can touch with cotton yarn as holding for increasing the friction of the grip and the hands efficiently avoiding the golf club sliding out from the hands as striking, but, because all surface of the grip of golf club is covered with cotton yarn, the thumbs can not avoid touching with the cotton yarn as holding, so the rough fiber of the cotton yarn will be apt to rub against them harmfully, further to affect the comfortableness of use. 
         [0005]    For this sake, the inventor decided to improve the grip of the golf club further in increasing friction, reducing the rate of slide-off phenomenon, avoiding rubbing against fingers and increasing comfortableness of use. 
       OBJECTS AND SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 
       [0006]    It is therefore a main object of the present invention to provide a grip covered with cotton yarn partly of golf club improved in increasing friction, reducing the rate of slide-off phenomenon, avoiding rubbing against fingers and increasing comfortableness of use. 
         [0007]    For achieving this object, a grip of golf club provided by the present invention is typically comprised of a terminal cap and a sleeve, in which said sleeve is covered with cotton yarn over more than a half at the surface. 
         [0008]    Said sleeve is covered with cotton yarn over on ⅔ to ⅚ of the outside surface of the whole trunk. 
         [0009]    Said sleeve is covered with cotton yarn over ¾ of the outside surface of the whole trunk. 
         [0010]    The bottom end of portion covered with cotton yarn is formed with chamfering. 
         [0011]    An upper segment covered with cotton yarn is formed on the sleeve symmetrically taking the median line as the diad. 
         [0012]    An upper segment covered with cotton yarn is formed on the sleeve asymmetrically taking the median line as the border. 
         [0013]    The low segment of said sleeve has decorating segments formed below the low portion. 
         [0014]    Said grip is typically comprised of a terminal cap, a ½ upper segment covered with cotton yarn, one or two little supplementary upper segments covered with cotton yarn, a little supplementary upper segment having not cotton yarn covering, and two low segments having not cotton yarn covering. 
         [0015]    Wherein said little supplementary upper segment not covered with cotton yarn is integrated into said low segment to form one segment cut out. 
         [0016]    Said grip is typically comprised of a terminal cap, a ½ upper segment covered with cotton yarn, one or two little supplementary upper segments covered with cotton yarn, a little supplementary upper segment having not cotton yarn covering, and two low segments having not cotton yarn covering, and two decorating segments. 
         [0017]    As utilizing above-mentioned structure, because the cotton yarn covers over more than ½ portion of the sleeve by the upper segment, such as ⅔ to ⅚ outside surface covered with cotton yarn, so that the whole palm and four fingers can contact with the cotton yarn as holding the grip of the golf club, comparing to U.S. Pat. No. 6,666,777B1, the friction of the hands and the grip is increased further efficiently to prevent the club from sliding out from the hands, meanwhile the present invention remains a part less than ½ of the grip not covered with cotton yarn, comparing to CN1644233A, the thumbs can not touch with the cotton yarn as holding, so as to avoid the thumbs rubbing harmfully as striking, further to improving the comfortableness of use.
