I'm looking for a good grip and I don't want to have to worry about changing them a lot. Can anyone recommend a durable grip that will last a while?

any corded grips are gonna last you awhile. bit more harsh on the hands, not the softest, but corded grips such as tour velvet full cord are gonna last you the longest time.

I'd have to go with the Golf Pride Tour Velvets. They last a while, and are pretty comfortable.
Stay away from Winn grips, they do no last.

What I've found is that it's not always the type of grip that determines how long it lasts but also how you store your clubs. If you keep your clubs indoors in a climate-controlled room (your closet or in an extra bedroom), your grips will last a lot longer than if you store them in your garage or in your car's trunk.

a 59* wedge?

a bit picky are we? I think grips last longer if you store them properly too, baking them in the boot of your car can't be good for them.

I would agree, also, cleaning them helps. The oils and sweat from your hands will work to break down grips. I clean my grips with warm soapy water and a soft bristle brush after about 10 rounds. Also I clean them before putting them away for the winter.

I use the Golf Pride New Decade and feel they wear very well with a little care.

I use the Lamkin Perma Wrap Classic and Golf Pride Tour Wrap. Both hold up well. You do need to clean them with a mild soap and water about every 20 rounds or so to keep then tacky.

In my opinion Golf Pride New Decade Multicompound are by far the best, most comfortable and most durable grips on the market at the moment

While I agree with cleaning them with mild soap and water I would suggest doing it every 4-8 rounds….20 rounds of hand sweat and grime will start breaking the grips down quickly.

    • Day 130 (09 Sep 24) - At home, work in the backyard with the 6i and 8i into the net.  Left foot was tender so weight shift was off today - noticed the lack of solid contact on quite a few shots.  Still felt good to make some solid swings.    
    • Well…citing the old format isn’t really the issue here. IMO calling that picture merely suspicious is exactly why the rule won’t be enforced at all. That arm is as well placed against his chest as for the Heimlich maneuver. But like Erik said, BL would simply say he’s not anchoring and that would end the conversation. The rule never should’ve been made as it will never be enforced. 
    • I think they "blessed" him and he's just been doing his thing since then. I don't think they look with an eye toward seeing if he's breaching. Maybe they would if someone called him on it, but nobody will, because ultimately they're going to likely ask Bernhard, and he's going to say "no, I am not, not in any way that I notice." And yes to the use of dashed rules. Dumb.
    • I have to admit, this looks suspicious.  Still, I have a hard time believing that the expert rules officials on the senior tour, or whatever the current term is, have chosen to ignore a violation.  They certainly have a much better view than anyone does just watching video.   I also have a hard time giving much credence to anyone who cites a rule number that hasn't been in use for more than 5 years.
