i have a winn giant pistol grip and i love it. my putting problem was i would be way to wristy in my stroke and would never put a good roll on the ball. with the new grip i roll the ball much better. fyi, it took me a while to regain the feel on long putts. idk if its just me, but long putts with the new grip have a different feel now. that being said, i never go back to a standard grip

i put one on my putter less than a week ago. i personally think it helps me with feel, and keeps my wrist out of the equation.

Irons 3-SW: Callaway X-14 Steelhead

i added a SuperStroke grip to my Odyssey 2-ball putter after getting yippy on short puts. It really has reduced my hand/wrist action. Note at least for the original SuperStroke, the putter didn't feel right for a while due to the weight of the grip. After several big strips of lead tape on the putter head, and voila, it feels normal again and my putting is a LOT better now. very happy with the decision.

I agree with all the posts above but one thing I noticed when I added a bigger putter grip is that it made a big difference in the feel of the putter. It really deadened the feel off the face for me but I've gotten used to it now so it's fine.

The theory behind a larger grip taking the hands out of the stroke is good, but if your wrists are breaking down, a grip the size of a redwood tree isn't going to help. You need a sound putting stroke from the get-go. A visit to YOUTUBE and search "putting tips" would be a good start. Or a lesson from your local pro.

Whoever came up with the saying, "A bad day of golf is better than a good day at work", is a moron.

      Are you a Better Golfer than a Year Ago?

      By BananaBomber · Posted

      Never practiced golf when I was young and the only lesson ever taken was a driver lesson. I feel like I'm improving every year. However, the numbers don't support my feeling about improving. I usually drop to 12-13 during the summer while playing the familiar courses around home and then go on golf trips in the fall to new courses and increase to end the year between 15-17. Been a similar story for a number of years now but hey, it's the best thing there is in life so not too bothered but reaching 9.9 is the objective every year. Maybe a few lessons and practice could help me achieve it since I pretty much have no idea what I'm doing, just playing and never practice.

      Are You "Loyal" to One Golf Ball?

      By BananaBomber · Posted

      I am semi-loyal. Usually buy four dozen of one ball and only play that until out and then determine whether to continue or try another one. Since starting my semi-loyal path to success, I've been playing the below, not in order: ProV1 ProV1x ProV1x left dash AVX Bridgestone BXS Srixon Z-star XV I am not sure if it has helped anything, but it gives a bit of confidence knowing that it at least is not the ball (while using the same one) that gives different results so one thing less to mind about I guess. On the level that I am, not sure whether it makes much difference but will continue since I have to play something so might as well go with the same ball for a number of rounds. Edit: favorite is probably the BXS followed by ProV1/Srixon Z-star XV. Haven't got any numbers to back it up but just by feel.
