Saw some other threads about the Super Stroke grips. I just put one (mid slim 2.0) on my Scotty Del Mar and love it!! I stuck with the Scotty "Baby-T" grip for a long time, but thought I'd give this one a whirl as it was time to regrip anyway. I am normally a good putter - what separates my good rounds from okay rounds. I average about 26-28 putts a round and hope this one will improve that :)! I am not sure I would go with one of those fatter ones... What I like mostly is the absence of taper. I was going to try the "pistol" one Scotty has, but the transition from top to bottom was to great. Felt good in the top hand, but like a #2 pencil in the lower and I got "snappy" when I tested one out. Since our greens were recently punched, I have yet to see it a whole lot on course, but my green at home is Augusta fast and it works great. I did take it to another courses practice green and did quite good on a ~10.5 speed green. Slower greens, not too sure about, but thankfully I don't play on many of those. So I would recommend trying one out! I would start with the smaller so it is not too drastic of a change. Plus, there are no screws, etc. that I read about.

The Super Stroke is one of the best putter grips available. I prefer the ultra slim version. I like that it has a consistent width and is close to round. However, I like the round grip on my Edel slightly better.

Funny I just put a mid slim 2.0 on my Ping center shaft & it's ok - doesn't really do anything for me though.     Doesn't bother me or anything, just seems meh ... everything considered, I think I prefer the tapered feel and texture of the Tigershark midsize

I got the 3.0 Super stroke. My putting has improved a bunch, cuz I now have my hands much more quiet.

I've had mine for over a year now, and I can say that it definitely has helped. Especially for 10-15 feet and in. As the putts get longer, no major difference since it is more of a speed test for those 30-40 footers. The LINE might be a bit better, but the distance control is a different head game.

I did the same but it took me a few months to get used to them.  It seemed to really hurt me on longer lag putts but now that I have gotten used to them my putting has gotten better.

I've been using a 3.0 on my Scotty Del Mar for about a year. I liked the new black/red/white grip, so I just ordered it. Well, I didn't realize that I ordered a 2.0 by mistake. I decided to keep it and not return it. I waited until my important league matches were over and had it put on yesterday. Although, they say that it's not much difference between the 3.0 and the 2.0, I personally like the bigger 3.0. I'm going to finish the season with the 2.0 and see how it goes. I personally like the fatter grip as it has helped me quiet my hands quite a bit.

Cheers,
Rick Menary

    • Hit my tee shot just into the penalty area and barely found it. Swung hard just in case I hit it. It was slightly downhill with a heavy tailwind. I don't actually hit my 9i 170 yards.
    • Right. The difference between being 120 out and 70 out for me (this is the important part) is negligible and not worth putting other risks into play off the tee.   Ok the argument against driver is that my shot cone is comically large. It puts every possible outcome into play. You can't see the green from the tee so there's a good chance I'd have to wait for it to clear which would slow down play. That's the third tee right in the middle of the firing range there. I really don't want to wait just to hit a terrible shot and I especially don't want to injure somebody. Yea I have no problem playing out of the rough short of the bunker if I'm just going to lay up short of the bunker, but I absolutely need to avoid flaring it right into the penalty area if I'm going to be laying up in the first place. As a general strategy I understand where you're coming from. But since we're specifically talking about me (this is a shot I'm going to have to hit on Saturday), I think the cost is fairly marginal. I hit the ball 8' closer on average from 50-100 than I do from 100-150 from the fairway and rough and the green success % difference is 4%. Bunker might as well be a penalty drop. Based on the data,  Here's my SG:A data compared to a 10: I honestly don't know how to use SG for decision making. That's why I was mostly looking at proximity to hole and green success rate for comparison. I mostly use SG as a way to track my progress. All good. Like I said, I appreciate the discussion. It makes me think. If I didn't want to see alternative/opposing viewpoints to my own I just wouldn't post anything. You should post it! In your own swing thread, of course. It's been a fun exercise.
    • Played my first 2024 round at Pierce Lake. Boomed my first drive down #10 fairway, then slowly slipped into mediocrity. 83 (69.6/131). The high point was going 2 of 4 on sand saves. My sand game is pretty marginal but today I must have discovered the secret for a couple hours.
    • day 34. Technique practice. Became too quick and outcome oriented. need to slow down and work on technique again. 
    • Day 534, April 18, 2024 Practice before lessons today. Priority piece. No sim this time. 🙂
