I am considering replacing the grips on my Eye 2s.
They appear to be original and although they are not cracked or broken and still somewhat sticky when used, I think upgrading the grips would make them feel better and possibly inspire a bit more confidence while being used.
I really know nothing about grips other than Lambkin is pretty well spoken of and maybe Golf Pride to a lesser degree(?).
Also I checked at Ping but could not find shaft diameter.
I know that there are 2 sizes. One is .580 and the other .600.
Firstly what would be a good grip to put on these? Maybe Lambkin Crosslines?
My Eye 2s are my first clubs so I have no idea which way to go.
Please let me know your opinions and thanks in advance!

And to answer my own question I called Ping and the standard shaft is .600.

I have a few of the Lamkins that I got with some club packs from Golfworks, but gripped with my PURE Pro's.  I have the Lamkins on some others clubs I keep in the house to swing during commercials.  I do like the feel of them.  Much better than GP Tour Velvets.

I assume you tried the grips out so is there a huge difference between the Standard and Full cord Lamkins? My local store only has the Standard to take a look at so I have no comparison.

I have not tried them out.

I figured based on all of the positive information I read about them and the super cheap price even if I dont like them it didnt cost me much.

I have read that the crosslines are a bit harsh on your hands. Wont know until I get them but Im sure they will be fine.

      PGA Makes Changes and Adopts My Change I Wanted for Years

      By jxdama · Posted

      I  had to return to boast  just a  bit. Everyone  knows  i thought  this  is  how the Championship should  be decided. Match play is far  better than stroke  play to determine a  champion and  its  much closer to most sports  playoffs. Lose and you are  out.     Promotion, relegation and match play: PGA Tour unveils radical new structure The PGA Tour has revealed its planned changes to its competitive model, schedule and playoffs, changes that will be more substantial than any in the Tour's half-century-long history. How will the PGA Tour series wrap up its season? The current PGA Tour playoff format consists of three stroke-play events, concluding with the Tour Championship at East Lake Golf Club in Atlanta. Starting in 2028, the Tour's playoff system will feature match play, and will rotate through various courses. Further details will be revealed at this year's Tour Championship next month.

      My Swing (Gestate0560)

      Posted a couple swings here. I think my attempt to blend the movement still results in a more “around” back swing?

      PXG Brand

      I never heard dislike for them.  From my perspective, they are just like any other club. Though, they were always probably over-priced, until recently as other club manufacturers have been raising prices the past 5+ years. You had to wait for them to go on sale, which you can get them closer to other club manufacturers.  They sell good clubs. Nothing crazy..

      Why do so many people dislike PXG clubs and constantly criticize them? All the folks at my club and especially online, I never hear good things about them except from people who bought them and defend them. They look fine to me but curious is there some sort of quality issue or is it just stereotyping the buyers.

      ShotScope LM1 ($200 Launch Monitor/Speed Radar)

      By DewSweeper09 · Posted

      I have the LM1 launch monitor and I’ve been very impressed. I agree with your assessment and it’s very accurate for me and ease of use is wonderful. The price point of $199 is very hard to beat with this form factor and performance. I was previously using a PRGR.
