The GP's sound like they are their "Tour Wrap" grips - have them on a number of my used sets. I don't have large hands but have found that midsize grips at my age (soon to be 65) really fit the bill. I've played Winn Dri Tac's, Tacki Macks, GP Tour Velvets among others. These days its more the GP Tour Velvet mdi-size grips. The best thing to do is hit up your local pro-shop or big store like Dicks/Golf Galaxy and test fit the grips. Then you can figure what works best for how they feel in your hands. -

My goals this year are really not much different than last year. I am a little late but here they are: 1. Ball speed consistently 150+ 2. Handicap to 3 3. Scrambling at 50% or better 4. Compete in events Coming off an injury and then rehabbing the speed training had to be put on the back burner. Ball speed last week was averaging 147 so close but not quite there. My handicap at my club when I joined was 4.2, went up to 6 and is currently at 3.9 from the Men's tees. I did hang out with 2 ex Korn Ferry guys at my club and got some great short game help really controlling low point. Scrambling is just over 40% and climbing. It is something I am really working on. I have been competing more and made the qualifier for our club championship (last place qualified by shooting 81 with a quadruple bogey on the 6th hole). I went to 18 against a former club champ and lost 1 down on 18. I got skunked at the Member Guest championship flight but won the championship flight in our Member Member (got knocked out in finals). The progress is there, and now that I retired and am consulting on my own, I do have more time to practice and play. -

Day 13 (14 May 24) - Did the monthly play nine while walking round today. Even with gusty winds, drizzly conditions I had a blast taking a walk to enjoy the round. Played the DCI 962 irons as I have not played them on the course this year. I know they are late 90's technology, but man they hit well when struck pure. Was a solid round as there were no dbl bogies, but five bogies. Next goal is to complete a nine with no "sixes" on the card. -

Alright Trappers, the last 2 weeks I have been making progress. It started with 15 in which I hit 8 iron from 132 (knock down into wind) to 3 feet. That only leaves the difficult #5 left to birdie. But as fate would have it I busted a drive on 17 and had 235 downwind. I hit 3H and being dry it hit the back side of the last hill and rolled onto the green (par 5). I made a 30 footer for eagle. The following week on the par 5 12, I chipped in for eagle. I still have #5 that is lingering and then I can be done with the challenge. Funny as it wasn't so difficult last year, but this year, not so much. I keep getting close and making stress free pars, so I am sure it's a matter of time! -

You can still find a lot of Pure grips on ebay too. @snapfadeDo you ever get blisters on the hand you do not wear a glove on from using the Pure Wrap grips? I put these on my wedges and ended up with a blister on my right thumb. Can't say for sure it was from these, but it happened at the range after I spent a lot of time hitting my wedges. I do like these grips a lot, but I think I prefer their DTX's much more. I love that extra texture.
