Fatty putter grip. I went ahead and did it.

So I finally went out and had a Winn Lite jumbo putter grip thrown on my Fastback #1. I played the stock Scotty corded grip for a year and got the urge to switch it up, see if I can't hole some more putts with a fatty grip on there.

This particular model weighs in @ 63 grams, which is within a gram or two of the original grip, so it didn't mess with the swingweight too much, also the club has the 15 gram weights in the sole. The material is tacky, but not sticky. Coming from a corded, firm grip, this feels pretty nice.

My grip has both index fingers running down both sides of the club, and I wrap the middle and ring fingers of my right hand over my left index finger, and with this particular grip size my hands fit in a static position much better than a smaller grip, and has immediate feedback to how I'm holding the club. I feel like it fits my grip the most comfortably without using too much grip pressure.

As far as how well it plays so far...I like it. I struggled out of the gate with distance control on longer putts, but after sessions on the putting green it isn't a problem. Inside 8-10 feet I feel deadly.

I don't feel like jumbo grips "take the hands out of it". You can still definitely push/pull/tweak/yip putts with any grip. I feel like I just needed something thicker in my hands to maintain the grip pressure that I'm going for.

So far, so good.

I have a Tiger Shark jumbo on mine and love it, I definitely like a fatter putter grip.

I went to the Super Stroke Lite and have seen a great improve!  Definitely a fan!
