About time for me to change out my grips and am thinking of using the GP DD2 midsize. Anybody using these and any opinions?

what i plan on doing, instead of getting midsized grips, is going with a regular size grip but having them do either 2 or 3 tape wraps before applying the grips. Midsize grips would be the equivalent of 4 wraps.

I've been using those for a while now and love them. There is another thread here where I go into a little more detail of my opinion.

how is the durability on the grips? You getting six months, a year, or more? Also, how is the grip when dampness from humidity gets bad?

That is my major concern. I too live in FL, and the humidity is of course very high.

I usually regrip around 6-8 months anyway, but they are still in very good shape at that point. So I'm probably throwing away a few dollars by regriping too early.

They are not the tackiest grip I've ever played in the rain, that seems to be one minus for them. However the couple of real rains I've played in were pretty heavy rains, so swinging in general was a chore. But general 'moisture' from sweat, humidity or a light sprinkle of rain has never been an issue.

I threw a couple of these on yesterday and played a round. Wow. I really like the feel of these. I am coming from playing a Lamkin midsize wrap. The DD2 handled the wetness (rained in the am and humidity was about 75%) much better than the wraps did. I am going to be regripping the rest of my bag as soon as I can. I went with the yellow and black (they look quite sharp), and the only downside is that yellow got a bit dirty, but it came off with a little scrub after I got home.

I've been playing the DD series since it's introduction. I've liked them all.

I played the origianl DD before switching to the DD2 and really liked those also.Then I switched to the standard DD2, then to the midsize after trying just one out on a driver. Really the only reason I switched was the feel factor of the midsize DD2.

    • Still working on getting to lead side. Tonight I also tried some skill work with clubface awareness.  Hit foam balls. 
    • To flog this subject even further, if that's even possible, this article from Golf Monthly just appeared today in one of my news feeds. Written by a golf writer in the UK who I never heard of, he's basically saying that there should be only 3-5 rounds from the most recent 20 that should count towards the average and only competitive rounds should count. He claims the erratic scorers would have less of an advantage than they do now. He makes a lot of references to "club golfers" in the UK being the ones who are mostly dissatisfied. https://share.google/qmZZBEoJvOxHxJGil  In my experience with my league where we have golfers with indexes ranging from 5 to 40, looking at the weekly results from the past two years, I can detect no pattern that would substantiate the claim that the current system gives an unfair advantage to either erratic golfers (aren't we all?) or higher handicappers. Apparently though, at least in the UK, this seems to be "a thing."
