I have Winn Excel Grips and they appear to be getting worn down and they are not old at all (maybe 10 months). I don't use gloves when I play.

I am looking into changing mine but I may look for something relatively soft but still durable. I like Tour Velvets but I saw some new Golf Pride and Winn grips that may fit the bill.

How often do you change your golf grips?

On the average 18 months to 28 months, the longest set lasted almost 10 years on one set of irons still tacky but getting easier to pull apart ( maybe that's why they don't make it any longer, it lasts forever ).
Currently, I have very good luck with the GP DD2, these are soft and into the second season still feel like new. We'll see how long these will last.

I change my golf grips every year in April. As this is when is starts to get a little colder here in Sydney. I find that with cold early starts, a new grip is great!

If you are not wearing gloves, i would suggest something with some natural 'tack' such as the Lamkin Crosslines, Lamkin X-Dry and Golf Pride Tour Velvets

Once a year plus or minus a few months. That's with a playing/practice schedule at least an 18 and a 9 once a week on average. More playing though equals less grip life. I get a little more out of the grips if the summer is cool like it was this year.

I use Winn G8's and slightly different care is needed for Winn's. You don't scrub Winn's or dunk them under the tap or in the sink. You either lightly clean them with a damp towel of water or isopropyl alcohol. I prefer using alcohol and the paper towels do get dirty so crud is coming off.

    • I am a huge numbers guy and if a number can be applied to something, I want to know what it is.  Even in golf, I will pace off short chips as I have a 10 yard, 20 yard, and 30 yard shot whereas I take the club back a certain distance for each.  I have heard the comparison to basketball players that they do not know their exact distance to the basket, they just use their eye sight and adjust which I know a lot of golfers do as well when within a certain distance to the pin.  My question is, what is that distance for you?  I was at the range today and was hitting wayward  balls to a flag that I had no idea what it's exact distance was, I estimate that I was at times as close as 40 yards and as far away as 70 yards.  I was amazed at how accurate I was having not known the distance to the flag.  Temps me to not use my range finder within say 70 yards and go by look and feel.  What say you?
    • Well, it was yesterday but I shot an 88 at Lake Park GC in Lewisville, TX.
    • PXG Orlando, other locations I'm sure its the same, offers a full bag fitting for 25 bucks which is applied to purchase if you are a veteran or active duty, etc. Unfortunately I like my Titleist's.
    • Latest rumor is Clarkson, May and Hammond will have a new team on LIV.  
    • That's not just sandbagging, that's cheating. Under Rule 3.3 for posting most likely scores, for example if there was a 2 foot putt for par, one can only take one extra stroke from what they lie, meaning par in that instance, not bogey. I didn't check the other instances but you can.
