Played there simulator for the first time today... Really enjoyed it.

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 get kidney stones. So 100 oz of water every day. Some nights I drink 32oz between midnight and 6 Am. Which means I dont sleep much.
    • 46 (9 over) Short game and putts were awful!
    • 46+40 for an 86. I just need to play 9 holes on the range before each round. 🤣🤣🤣
    • I don’t measure my intake either. I generally have a black coffee, a bottle of soda, some sweet tea at home, and anything in between is water. An ice cold bottle of water is one of my favorite things. It feels like an immediate refresher for my body. I’ll admit that I need to drink a little more though. 
    • For such a nice membership, there have been some bad incidents in the past few years.  We had someone voted out a couple of years ago over something he did and he harassed the board members for three months until he moved out of the area.   Generally they’ve tried to do things like tournament handicaps and identify certain people who they know should be lower and adjust it somehow.  I can understand not wanting to go thru something like the guy who was voted out again i emailed the pro who forwarded it to the handicap committee.  They are going to see what can be done.  I walked someone thru what happened and they are going to nudge him to post the score from the match and see what he does.  Since he didn’t put anything in the electronic scoring past 13, based on how he played 14 and 15 plus having to take bogey on 16-18 for after he left, he should post 83.  We’ll see if it’s even higher,   Since he was really even thru 13, then doubled 14 and parred 15 my guess is he really shot 75 being generous and giving him 2 pars and a bogey on the three holes he didn’t play.    i shot 88, getting 16 shots for my course handicap which is net even and I lost on 13.  We do brackets where handicaps should be within 4-5 of each other.  Most matches only have 1-2 shots as a difference between players  neither of us posted the score yet.  There was something in the match play rules about whether or not to post your score.  I couldn’t remember if we were supposed to or not.  I don’t think he was going to post that, because even with his inflated score it would be the lowest score in his recent 20. Lucky I didn’t because they want to see what he does post and they don’t want me posting so he can try to calibrate his score.
