I'm at the point now where the stock grips on my Callaway X Series Jaws Wedges are getting kind of slippery and losing grip. So I'm in the market for some new grips. The ones that I think I want to get are Golf Pride Tour Velvet BCT Grips. I want something that has a lot of feel on the wedges, and something really tacky. Does anyone have any experience with these grips? What kind of grips do you like to use on your wedges?

I use Pure Grips , love them, very tacky and if you have an air compressor there is no other grip imo.  They have a 1 year guarantee.  I've never used the Tour Velvet cords, but the Tour Velvets are very popular.

Just not a Tour Velvet Fan ... they seem to wear more quickly than Lamkin.

If you're looking for tacky and long lasting, GripMaster Leather.

Otherwise, I'd suggest something in a Lamkin.

I have not tried the "Pure" but putting it on yourself if you are DIY, sounds good. I think Eric has a review of the Pure Grips on the site.

I second the PURE Grips.  And I like using the same grips on all the clubs.  On all mine, I have one wrap of tape for the full length of the grip, and 3 extra wraps under my right (low) hand.  And on the wedges (G, S, and L) I have 3 wraps full length with 3 extra under the right hand.

    • It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…
    • I played tennis in college. I thought block practice was great for serves because you were starting the point and  you could easily adjust where you wanted to place the ball based off the same motion. I equate those to tee balls. I despised block practice for groundstrokes once you reached a certain level and your fundamentals were good. To me, hitting a 100 crosscourt backhands in a row was silly because I would never do that in a match. I needed to randomize it by hitting some deep, some angled, all with different speeds and spins. I share that same thought about iron play. Because we seldom hit the same approach shots hole after hole, I prefer to practice irons randomly.
