For my Ping Eye Irons and Driver, HY, F-wood.....(basically my whole set I guess) I want the same grips on everything :)

Narrowed it down to Tour Velvet GP, Lamkin Crossline Tour, Lamkin Crossline (black/white), or Tacki-mac( like the idea, never felt one) ....

This is HARD, lol

Anyways, just seeing if one of you had to choose between the four, what would you pick?

In My Burton Viper Stand Bag :

Eye Black Dot Irons 3-PW / R7 Quad 10.5 Degrees / Square Two Pilot 7 Wood 21 Degrees / Square Two Pilot 4 Hybrid 23 Degrees / XK Hale Irwin Series Blade SW 58 Degree / Rossa Lambeau 7 CGB Putter

Back Up Set - Elite (Tour Balancing System) 2-SW / Shoes - Superlites

I've had great luck with the tacki-mac grips that I have.  They are the dual molded half chord.  Great product and half the price of the comparable Golf Pride Decade Multicompound.

Of those choices, I'd go with either the Tour Velvets or the Crosslines... both are really good grips.  If these were my clubs however, I'd go with none of those... you should check out PURE grips (www.puregrips.com), they are abosolutely wonderful... I had the Soft Wraps on all of my clubs and loved them (unfortunately those clubs got stolen).  If you like the feel of the Crossline or Tour Velvet they have the Pro model which is similar.  I found that they last (I had mine for a few months using them 4+ times per week with zero wear) and I put them on myself which was super easy (they go on with an air compressor so you'll need one of those to go that direction).

Went through this exact same on my new CG16 clubs put on Lamkins Cross played 2 rounds in them and replaced them with Golf Pride Muiti compound.

Love em....

Was considering the IoMics however no one had any in stock and I did not feel comfortable purchasing them site unseen...

I do like the golf pride allot and i think it boils down to what you like the best.. the Lamkins just seemed a bit slick in humid consitions..

Best of luck in your search.. and they are super easy to replace yourself..

I've tried a few brands in the last year or so and personally feel the New Decade MCs give you the best hold on the club, period. But man, they are hard on the hands if you practice a lot. I have calluses like a ditch digger! I think the grips that best temper justice with mercy are the Lamkin N-DUR 3GEN.

If Golf Pride is on your radar, they have a grip fitting thing on their site. It will direct you to your best grip from their line. You might be able to then find comparable grips from other manufacturers.

The club selection of a true hacker:

Driver: Nike Dymo2 SQ
3 and 5 Wood: Nike Dymo2 SQ
Irons: Adams Idea Tech OS Hybrid Irons (5-PW)
Wedges: Maxfli 56* and 60*
Putter: Odyssey White Ice #1 in Copper

    • Day 17 - Indoors practice. Some small setup changes and then working on hands path.
    • Yeah, negative PCC days are more likely to be counted in the best 8, but the PCC decreases the downward impact of these scores, as it increases your posted differential.  As for the conditions, it really is funny how the scores posted don't always reflect what seem like tough conditions.   Its clear that you thrive in difficult conditions.  
    • I guess someone decided to do more work for little benefit then.  I might be the lucky one then. I have a +3 and a +1 on my counted scores. 
    • I've only seen one positive PCC since it began, a +3 during a tournament on a tough, firm course with the wind blowing at least 30 mph. A scratch golfer got so frustrated he pulled out after 9. Sadly, the +3 did nothing for me as I was a good 10-12 strokes above the score counting. Currently 3 of my last 7 scores have a negative PCC. Of course, all 3 of those are in my best eight. I'm puzzled, as the wind was blowing pretty good on at least two of those rounds.  
    • It changed to the best 8 of the last 20, in the 2020 changes.  When I attended a Handicapping Workshop in 2020, we were told that they anticipated that the PCC would apply in about 10% of the rounds.  That's about what I see now, maybe slightly more often since the algorithm was tweaked not long ago.  And remember, the PCC will adjust MOST of the scores on a given day towards the mean.  With a positive PCC (more high scores), most players scores wouldn't be in the best 8/20 even with the PCC, so the impact is nothing, although the few players who had a good day will see the impact on their HI increased.   I believe it will be very rare that a player has even two scores in their best 8 with any kind of PCC.
