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.

    • That was a good watch. When I started working on pelvis in the backswing. I thought, this sounds contradictory to those leg straightening threads on the site. Erik has already done a correction. Then the last lesson we went more down the route of feeling the right knee gains flex. It doesn’t, but the feeling keeps my knee position in a good range. Also, I just realized how much extra work my right hip needed to do to stabilize the body with the proper weight shift. Those glute and hip stabilizers got worked. 🤣 I wish this evolution in the golf instruction happened 20 years ago! 😭
    • I've been Playing Golf for: 40 yrs My current handicap index or average score is: 4.0 factor My typical ball flight is: Straight however sometimes slight draw. The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: squirt to the right due to to much arm not enough turn.

    • The first issue Erik spoke about is something we worked on for my swing during both GEARS sessions. GEARS was showing my pelvis center moving towards the ball during the back swing. I wasn’t the 4” guy though! This forced me to correct on the downswing to give myself space. My hip rotation was to high as well. We corrected it by first getting the weight off my heels in my stance and getting my posture correct. Then the feel was shifting back into my right hip at a 45 degree angle. This kept my pelvis center from moving towards the ball at the start of the backswing. I also didn’t sway back as much as I felt I did because of the angle I was shifting. Feel Ain’t Real. The cool thing about GEARS is as you work on something you can see the exact (Real) change happening. On video, it is much harder to spot this issue because of the 2D nature of filming. But I know what to look for now. Sadly, I was hurt all last year and most of this year so I really haven’t been able to work on it much. I did do a lot of backswing work though.
