On topic, I personally like the grips right in the middle.  Little on the firm side.

I've been through sharpro, lamkin, gp, karakal,etc etc.  I like a firm tacky grip (I dont like wearing a glove and I live in very humid conditions).  I just installed performance plus (non-3gen) on all 13 clubs for $29 shipped (I installed).  These grips are geat.  So far Lamkin grip offerings seem to play firm and allow a relatively light grip pressure through faster swings.  I do like GP's 2gen grips but are really slippery if wet (dry they are great)

G10 (VS Proto 65 X) or 905S (speeder X) / X Tour 3W (VS Proto S) / Adams Idea Tour Proto 18* (VS Proto S) / S59 Tour, Z-Z65 Cushin (D2) / Mizuno MP-T 51-06 , 56-10, / Miz TP Mills #6 ~or~ Cleveland BRZ #5

Bingo...same exact thing. Have played GP Your Velets for quite a few years and just replaced them with navy Lamkin Crossline Tour. Love them.

When I had my Ping fitting, both static and dynamic fittings called for undersized grips. Well since I was able to swing a half priced set of G15's I had to regrip right away. After just 2 weeks of using undersized Winn Excels I am getting a tremendous blister on the ring finger of my right hand even wearing gloves on both hands. (I'm a righty but sometimes go the Gainey, 2 glove route). In 35 years of playing golf I have never had a blister so I guess I'm going back to a standard mens grips.

2 questions, Whats the difference between a .580 and .600 grip? Are shaft diameters different or is a sneeky way of describing slightly undersized or oversized?

Second, for those of you using Pure grips, still like them? Are they holding up well and most importantly, not slipping?

Amazon has the 13 grip and installation tool for $50, seems like a screaming deal for any grip.

    • I am considering replacing my 2013 9.5 degree stiff shaft Cobra Ampcell S driver. I think my swing speed of mid 90's might benefit from a softer shaft and more loft. I do not want to spend a lot on a new club or even a top end used club like Ping G430. I know the right answer is get on a launch monitor and see what works for me. But, being in South Africa, there is a miniscule used club market and all I can find will have to be mailed from another town. I would be grateful for views on the following options that are cheap and I like the look of: Ping Rapture V2 10.5 degrees regular TFC 939 shaft, Ping Anser 9.5 degrees regular and Ping G20 10.5 degrees Alta 55g regular.

    • I am marshalling at the Truist this week. Philadelphia Cricket is a great old Tillinghast track. It only tops out at around 7,100 yards so these guys might tear it up but it shouldn't take away from how good it is. Unfortunately, because of spectator restrictions around the 18th green, they aren't playing the traditional routing. The 18th hole will play as the 11th hole. 
    • I am marshaling at the Truist this week at Philly Cricket. During the practice round yesterday, I was at the 5th tee when Justin Rose came by and I asked, are you going to keep your Philly streak going? He looked at me and paused for a second and then laughed and said, that would be nice. He's won at Aronimink and Merion. It would be a nice trifecta.
