I've been putting it off for way....way....way too long. My irons & wedges have needed new grips badly....for a long while now.


I was in local golf shop earlier today and saw some I liked the feel and look of....Golf Pride New Decade Multi-Compound (that's a mouthful). Looks like a red and black grip with the butt part being corded and the top red part is textured/ribbed.

The store manager said they've been getting good feedback about these and they seem to last a full year or better.

I'm getting 10 clubs done for $100. The'll be ready prior to my next round.

Is this a decent price?

What are your experiences with these grips?

That doesn't sound bad at all. I grip my own, so I save a little, but the grips I purchased this year ran me about $10 a club. The one shop locally that has the new Winn PCI grips, that's what they charge. Gripping your own isn't hard, time consuming. But after some practice its really simple and quick.

I've got those grips on my wedges, and tried it out on a couple of my drivers (I'm on my third this year, but that's another story.) I wouldn't disagree with anything obsessedgolfer said, but they're a little firm for my taste. I feel like a get a better grip with something just a little softer. I'm thinking about regripping my whole set with DD2s next Spring.

Thanks for the responses.

They did feel a bit firm on the cut down shafts in the store. My initial choice was going to be Tour Velvet Cords....so I'm okay with firm. I just decided to go with something different this time. Didn't want to spend the $$$ on new irons in the near future....so I felt like spicing up my old ones.

In the top three choices was the Lamkin Crossline Cord...another great grip.

We're in the same general area, and the shop I use charges $9.40 per club to regrip with that grip according to their website, so I'd say that's a fair price.

Picked up my sticks this morning.

They feel pretty good...sure are "busy" looking but seem to be very functional.

Looking forward to teeing it up in the morning after the frost delay is over.

      Driver and 3W Swing Weight Changes, Make Sense?

      By saevel25 · Posted

      In terms of ball striking, not really. Ball striking being how good you are at hitting the center of the clubface with the swing path you want and the loft you want to present at impact.  In terms of getting better launch conditions for the current swing you have, it is debatable.  It depends on how you swing and what your current launch conditions are at. These are fine tuning mechanisms not significant changes. They might not even be the correct fine tuning you need. I would go spend the $100 to $150 dollars in getting a club fitting over potentially wasting money on changes that ChatGPT gave you.  New grips are important. Yes, it can affect swing weight, but it is personal preference. Swing weight is just one component.  Overall weight effects the feel. The type of golf shaft effects the feel of the club in the swing. Swing weight effects the feel. You can add so much extra weight to get the swing weight correct and it will feel completely different because the total weight went up. Imagine swinging a 5lb stick versus a 15lb stick. They could be balanced the same (swing weight), but one will take substantially more effort to move.  I would almost say swing weight is an old school way of fitting clubs. Now, with launch monitors, you could just fit the golfer. You could have two golfers with the same swing speed that want completely different swing weight. It is just personal preference. You can only tell that by swinging a golf club.

      Driver and 3W Swing Weight Changes, Make Sense?

      By BananaBomber · Posted

      Thanks for the comments. I fully understand that these changes won't make any big difference compared to getting a flawless swing but looking to give myself the best chance of success at where I am and hopefully lessons will improve the swing along the way. Can these changes make minor improvements to ball striking and misses then that's fine. From what I understood about changing the grips, which is to avoid them slipping in warm and humid conditions, is that it will affect the swing weight since midsize are heavier than regular and so therefore adding weight to the club head would be required to avoid a change of feel in the club compared to before?

      Dr. Raymond Prior and Block vs. Random Practice (The Spin Axis Podcast)

      I think part of it is there hasn't been enough conclusive studies specific to golf regarding block studies. Maybe the full swing, you can't study it because it is too complicated and to some degree it will fall into variable or random.

      Going one step stiffer in the golf shaft, of the same make and model will have minor impact on the launch conditions. It can matter, it is a way to dial in some launch conditions if you are a few hundred RPM off or the angle isn't there. Same with moving weights around. A clubhead weights 200-220 grams. You are shifting a fraction of that to move the CG slightly. It can matter, again its more about fine tuning. As for grip size, this is more personal preference. Grip size doesn't have any impact on the swing out of personal preference.  You are going to spend hundreds of dollars for fine tuning. Which if you want, go for it. I am not sure what your level of play is, or what your goals in golf are.  In the end, the golf swing matters more than the equipment. If you want to go to that level of detail, go find a good golf club fitter. ChatGPT is going to surface scan reddit, golfwrx, and other popular websites for the answers. Basically, it is all opinionated gibberish at this point.
