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.

      I'm good with the bunkers, and the fairways are SUPER wide. Three yards should stop a ball that isn't landing in it from rolling into the hay.

      I'm a little behind, but I just finished listening to the episode about practicing while on vacation.  I have two vacations coming up this month that I won't be bringing golf clubs with me on, and this was perfectly timed (I'm sure I am not the only one going on vacation in June).   Especially the part about stretching.  I keep putting off adding stretching, with golf in mind, to my daily routine.  I think I'm going to use these upcoming vacations, the first of which I'm flying off to on Thursday, as a way to get into this habit.   For anyone else interested, Fit For Golf (see sidebar) has fantastic stretching routines (some of which, I think, are on their free area).  I really should get back to doing their main exercises too.  I don't have any affiliation with them beyond "satisfied customer," in case that sounds like an ad. I may end up posting in the 5 minutes thread when I do golf stretches if it's my only practice that day... as if I don't already sound like a broken mp3 with my 10-15 minutes hitting indoors part. And back to the topic:  anyone not caught up on the podcast should consider catching up and listen to that episode, especially if you're going on a non-golf vacation this summer and want some practice ideas that aren't the at-home practice routine from LSW about long bunker shots (which I am sure we all do regularly).

      Mostly pull cuts to slices. Some random pull draw/hooks pending of I hit the toe.

      What's the rest of that story? Where was the ball going?

      The criticisms are starting already 🤣 U.S. Open pro criticizes Shinnecock green conditions: 'Bumpy' After playing his first practice round at the 2026 U.S. Open, Michael Kim offered a less-than-glowing review of Shinnecock's "bumpy" greens.   The sand, I don't care about that. If the greens didn't come back as well for latest aerification, that would be a bit of a blunder on Shinnecock I think.
