Hi everyone,

I got fitted recently for a Scotty Cameron Phantom 11 Long and I love it but the default grip (Winn Long 17-Inch Pistol) is too thin for my big hands and I need a thicker grip but the options in 17" inch long grips is minimal

The default grip on my putter is 136 grams so I'm trying to find something of a similar weight.

My two 17" contenders are (in no particular order):

JMX JumboFlat 17 Putter Grip = this grip is 125 grams so not too far away. My concern with this grip is its an armlock grip and I put regular style (right handed: left hand high, right hand low) so is it feasible to put the flat surface of this grip facing forward? I ask this as the flat surface looks quite large

- 2ThumbGrip OG LITE 39 LONG =  this grip is 120 grams so a bit lighter. Is a 16 gram difference between grips going to make a big difference?

One grip that can't be a contender:

- SuperStroke Zenergy Tour 3.0 17" =  this grip is only 93 grams so it's far too light and also this grip is incompatible with SuperStroke's weight system so one cannot add weight

Does anyone have any experience, ideas or thoughts on this scenario?

For the grips that are 125 grams and 120 grams, can you add more weight somehow to get close to the original weight?

Cheers!

I don't know for sure if this would work, but I know when people want the head heavier they add lead tape to the bottom of the clubhead, maybe you could add lead tape underneath the grip?

You might have trouble getting the grip on over the tape, probably depends on what grip you choose and how much weight you would need to add.

    • Day 126: another busy day, so just did some mirror work. Checking set up and backswing and working on a few downswing feels. 
    • Day 310 - Working on my follow-through. Higher chest, belt towards the target. Small swings at first, building to a fuller swing (still not thrilled with my short backswing).
    • Day 201 (19 Nov 24) - Walked the back nine at Minnesott today, played the “white” tees with the persimmon woods and bladed irons.  It’s a challenge I really like as the clubs are shorter in overall distances.  It really forces me focus on the value of the approach game.     Somehow yesterday’s post did not load / so it’s above.  Today (Day 202) I did some backyard short yardage work - 7i dink  and rolls, 9i chips and 50deg pitches - working to get it in before the rain started around noon. 
    • Day 51 - 2024-11-20 Played nine holes of Sanctuary Moon with a 6I while pausing in the backswing and otherwise just practicing. If you're into Star Wars, or don't actively hate it… this is worth checking out.
    • Eh. Nah. To quote someone else:
