I currently have the stock Golf Pride Tour Velvet Cord on all of my clubs right now. I was thinking about trying something different for my irons. I was wondering what people think that have experience with the Golf Prides and the Lamkin grips mentioned in the title. I'm interested in the Lamkin Crossline, Crossline Soft Cord, and Tour Black Full Cord.

Are the Lamkin's considerably softer than the firm Golf Pride Cords? Hows the traction on them?

Dminn23,

The Golf Pride Tour Velvet Cord feels the firmest of all three and has the least cord material exposed. It is the most durable grip of the ones you mentioned. The Lamkin Crossline Soft Cord has a firm feel, but soft cord. I'm not a big fan of the interaction between the crossline pattern and cord feel. To me, it just feels odd. The Tour Black Full Cord is my favorite grip on the market. It has a lot of exposed cord, but a semi-soft rubber it is suspended in. It has great traction and feel, and combines the firm feel of the Velvet Cords with the cord of the Crosslines. Great grip, and is made to be turned logo down.

    • Day 7: got out my chipping net and worked on chipping in the living room for a solid 15 minutes. Worked on mostly low shots, but mixed in a couple of high shots as well. 
    • Day 228 4-4 More hip/chest turn and wrist arching. Working on hinging wrist a bit later. Foam balls. 
    • Day 27 (4 Apr 26) - Worked with grandson on basic pitches/punches in the back yard with varied irons/wedges.  Wrapped up the day rolling some putts on the 30’ carpet I can set up in the yard to give varied terrain - and this carpet rolls almost too easy. A great way to figure a read and know that pace has to be near perfect to get in the hole.  
    • A bit of a struggle today.  Just some thoughts/musings.  For the backswing, it is like I am never going to be moving on from this. I don't know if I can ever get to the point where the backswing isn't like over 1.5 seconds in duration. Which is probably not ideal. I would like to get to the point where I can just fling the arms back and up.  I have to feel like my hands are going to hit my right thigh from P1 to P2. If not then they like to move 2-5 inches towards the ball from P1 to P2. Then it's just bad from there. This feeling is my hands not gaining much depth, just maintaining depth from set up. From the DTL view, the hands head towards the camera.  While I am doing that, hinge the crap out of the club with my wrist only. Hinge in a way that the club is pointing at the camera at P2.  From P2, lift the hands straight up. I can get here, and still roll the club inside and get it way too shallow.  With the downswing. There isn't much here. I still can't get the flow of this or the sequencing of this to line up. It doesn't help that hinging from P1 to P2 just throws off my entire timing as well.   
    • Day 550 - 2026-04-04 Practiced in the sim at a club for awhile. Did a SW ladder and practiced for awhile with my 7I.
