Midsize Grips?

Hit with a club that had a golf pride multi compound mid-size grip the other day and fell in love with it. Im gonna swap out my stock grips for some mid-sized ones. Whats the best grip out there for the money? The golf prides felt great but they are pretty pricy...

Check out the Winn Dri-Tac midsize. Fairly soft, helps out with even grip pressure.

Those were the grips I had in mind before i realized i liked the midsize. But even though they are the dri series ive heard quite a few complaints about them getting slick when wet which would be a problem because my hands sweat like crazy year round... other than that i love the feel of them

Get the golf pride ones, they're the best grip out there. If you play with a glove or don't have dainty hands, the cord surface won't bother you. I regularly hit around 300 balls at a time bare handed and only get blisters from my left index finger rubbing my other hand, never the club itself. I might even put one of these on my putter some time. And don't buy that crap about grip size affecting your ball flight. If that were true I wouldn't be able to draw anything but my wedges, which I absolutely do, and I'd be hooking my off the rack lob wedge like crazy; I think as long as your grip is comfortable and you don't change where you place your hands to adjust to the new size, the size and profile that feels best is the winner. Not a part of the club I'll ever tinker with since I found my size and model.

They aren't cheap, but remember cords will last longer than normal grips because they don't rely on tack and the texture is much more durable due to the fabric. So maybe you pay around 100 bucks to regrip when it comes time to do so, but you may be able to double or triple your mileage compared to cheaper non cord grips. I think it's a good investment, especially if you have a couple grips done at a time. I'm not able to afford to change grips much and I hate to throw out ones without any wear, but when I have a club built or reshafted I like to spend the 3 or 4 extra dollars to make it really comfortable. Only downside is that I might need a new bag because my 20$ one doesn't like 14 thick grips jammed together in the bottom.

If you can get over the spider logo I would take a look at Black Widow grips. I have a Black Widow Widow Maker black midsize grip on my driver. Half-corded and is basically completely black in color. I suppose you could install the grip upside-down if you want an even stealthier appearance.

Price for the Widow Makers (per one of the larger retailers, not sure if we can link or name-drop on here) are $8.19 ea

Still expensive but they are cheaper than the Golf Pride New Decade Multicompound Cord midsize black grip that I believe you are talking about in your original post. The GP's are half-corded as well but $9.99 ea in price.

I have first hand experience with the Widow Makers that's why I would recommend them. I'm sure there are other options for you to explore too, though.

i don't like the winn ones at all. they do get slick with sweaty hands and i just don't feel comfortable with them. if i'm scared it's going to slip then i'm over-tightening my hand and wasting the benefit of the soft grip.

i use midsize tour velvet by golf pride. i think they run $4-$5 per. had them for probably over 50 rounds/driving range trips and aren't showing any sign of wear.

Edit: those are on my woods/hybrids, i have lamkin crosslines on my irons. i think they're called that.

I just regripped wit the winn dri tec midsize and I love em.... I was looking for a grip that wouldnt slip and even though most people say they do, I havent had an issue yet.  Even with sweaty hands and 95 degree weather.

I like the multi compound grips from golf pride also. There is also a China factory vendor that makes equivalents that are pretty cheap, but I can't recall their name....

Since I had just switched all my grips to the tour velvet to get the jumbo size, I wanted to wait to get them and not trash out the new velvets.  So I just did the woods and my hybrid to start (4 grips).  At $9 each it's a bigger investment than just the tour velvets at $4.50.....  Hitting those clubs the last few months has also confirmed these are a good fit for me.

For the irons remaining.....I figure I can do a couple every week or so after the season is over.  (the color I wanted only came in mid-size, so it also takes three extra tape wraps for me - total of 4).

You can save your current grips too if you have the air compressor setup.

I asked a local fitter and pro about it (since I build up to jumbos even though my hands are mid-size measurements and the red/black multi-c's only came in midsize) and he agreed with the up-poster about just finding the size that works for you.  The 'general' rules about size are just that - general.  If another fit (bigger or smaller) feels right and you get good results, then go for those.  He noted it was no big deal to deviate from those.  Frankly, 'regular' sized grips just feel tiny to me and hard to hold and control.

do your own grips - it's easy and you save a ton too.  That helps the cause as well.
