I was thinking about giving the huge KJ Choi grip a shot today. THe golf stores around these parts are having huge discounts and I have decide to regrip my putter with a large grip. Heck I might even regrip my wedges while I am at.

I have used a similar Winn grip on my Scotty Cameron and it works fine, helps take the wrist out of the putt.

1) I also changed my grip. What I now do is make sure that I am gripping with the crease of my left hand on the putter grip, this seem to take the wrist out of putting and make the putter feel more one with my arm or an extension of my arm.

2) I also change my grip to a prayer style grip where my hands are opposite each other.

3) I also found that if I keep the putter low to the ground on my take away that I keep the line of my putts more consistently.

4) I also use a slight forward press.

i had a winn jumbo on 2 different putters and i dont think ill ever use a large grip again. they are great at taking wrists out but for me it killed my feel. distance control became a huge issue

I didn't like the super size grips, but I recently put a Winn oversize (I think it's the mid not the jumbo) grip on my 2 Ball putter. I love it. Now when I put a regular grip putter in my hand, it feels foreign and I don't feel like I have the same sense of control as I do with my newer grip. About the same time, I made a conscious effort to use the grip recommended by Stan Utley in his putting book (more in the left hand than in the fingers). Between the two changes, my putting stats have improved drastically lately.

I also do a slight forward press with my putter. I feel like I have to since the putter does have some loft to it.

I had the pure pendulum jumbo grip once. No big issue with it.
However, I now have the lady size Winn W8 iron grip installed to my putters. The round shape of the grip give good feedback of club face rotation and the smaller diameter makes the wrist break felt more noticable.
I know it is personal with putters and grips. Now I can adjust my grip pressure for different strokes more easily.
