1 . A golf club comprising;
 a main body having a head portion located at one end thereof and a grip portion located at the other end thereof; and   a shock-absorbing means fittingly coupled to the entire outer surface of the grip portion for absorbing a shock produced from the head portion when hitting a golf ball, the shock-absorbing means having a plurality of air pockets formed therein and being made of a soft rubber or synthetic resin having its cushion force.   
   
   
       2 . The golf club according to  claim 1 , wherein the plurality of air pockets is outwardly protrusively formed on the shock-absorbing means in a generally semi-circular shape in its cross section in such a manner as to be opened at its lower end which faces the outer surface of the grip portion. 
   
   
       3 . The golf club according to  claim 1 , wherein the plurality of air pockets is outwardly protrusively formed on the shock-absorbing means in a semi-circular shape in its cross section in such a manner as to be closed at its lower end which faces the outer surface of the grip portion. 
   
   
       4 . The golf club according to  claim 1 , wherein the plurality of air pockets is formed in a rectangular shape in its cross section in such a manner as to be opened at its lower end which faces the outer surface of the grip portion, and the top surface of each air pocket is parallel to the shock-absorbing means. 
   
   
       5 . The golf club according to  claim 1 , wherein the plurality of air pockets is formed in a rectangular shape in its cross section in such a manner as to be closed in its lower end which faces the outer surface of the grip portion, and the top surface of each air pocket is parallel to the shock-absorbing means.
