The current grips I have on most of my clubs are a combination of the MCC Standard and the MCC +4 Standard. I really like these grips but they are a tad small for me so I am going to get my clubs regripped soon to the MCC +4 Midsize version but I can't decide if I want the MCC +4 Midsize or the MCC +4 Midsize Align grips.

As of right now I am leaning towards the Align grip in my driver (was testing at a demo day last year and the shaft had the align grip on it and I really liked how it felt on a driver), the non align grips for my wedges (since it might feel weird feeling the ridge on the side when I open the face) but I'm not sure if I want to go with the Align on my irons or not.

Has anyone used the MCC +4 Align grips before? If so any thoughts? Is it a bad idea to mix and match align/non-align throughout the set?

I feel like it will be one of those things that if I did get the Align grips, after a few weeks I would get used to it and not even think about it anymore, but just was curious to hear thoughts from those of you who have used the Align grips before.

Might be too late but after a few shots you’ll get used to it.  I was hitting them an while I don’t think the align strip is very pronounced, I never noticed it was there after the first couple shots.

I have the standard MCC plus 4 grips on my irons and love them.  I was measured for +3 wraps but play these with the standard one wrap

    • I'm not sure you're calculating the number of strokes you would need to give correctly. The way I figure it, a 6.9 index golfer playing from tees that are rated 70.8/126 would have a course handicap of 6. A 20-index golfer playing from tees that are rated 64/106 would have a course handicap of 11. Therefore, based on the example above, assuming this is the same golf course and these index & slope numbers are based on the different tees, you should only have to give 5 strokes (or one stroke on the five most difficult holes if match play) not 6. Regardless, I get your point...the average golfer has no understanding of how the system works and trying to explain it to people, who haven't bothered to read the documentation provided by either the USGA or the R&A, is hopeless. In any case, I think the WHS as it currently is, does the best job possible of leveling the playing field and I think most golfers (obviously, based on the back & forth on this thread, not all golfers) at least comprehend that.   
    • Day 115 12-5 Skills work tonight. Mostly just trying to be more aware of the shaft and where it's at. Hit foam golf balls. 
    • Day 25 (5 Dec 25) - total rain day, worked on tempo and distance control.  
    • Yes it's true in a large sample like a tournament a bunch of 20 handicaps shouldn't get 13 strokes more than you. One of them will have a day and win. But two on one, the 7 handicap is going to cover those 13 strokes the vast majority of the time. 20 handicaps are shit players. With super high variance and a very asymmetrical distribution of scores. Yes they shoot 85 every once in a while. But they shoot 110 way more often. A 7 handicap's equivalent is shooting 74 every once in a while but... 86 way more often?
