What do you mean "gives a little"?

The Winn Lite series (Like the Hero) are soft but not mushy. I go up one size using them. They offer some shock absorption and are easier on arthritic fingers then most grips.

Wet they do feel a bit "greasy" but not so much as others out there.

I find that Winn grips are almost unusable for people with hard swings. I have a quick tempo and fast swing speed, and I find that I feel the shaft underneath when I swing fully. I like them on my putter, and I like how they feel, but at the top of the swing I lose my grip with them.

That said, many people like them for shock absorption, and I prefer cords without a glove, so my tastes are quite the opposite.

I just removed my mid size Golf Pride Tour Velvet grips and replaced them with standard size Lamkin Crossline Tour grips...I have big hands (XL Glove) but still prefer the feel and "whip action" of a standard grip....the mid size felt like thick sticks and I would at times pull/ hook shots -which is strange since my tendency is fade/cut /slice ...anyway I hated the damn things and glad I got rid of them...

    • Day 18: 2026.01.20 Continuing work on arm raise during backswing. Starting to feel less weird, especially the slower I go. Looking like a busy week so might be the weekend before I can hit some balls.
    • It’s possible the graphite shaft has a small internal crack or a delamination. Tapping it and hearing a vibrating sound is usually a sign the shaft isn’t behaving as it should. Since the store wasn’t helpful, consider taking it to a club fitter or a pro shop that can check the shaft flex and integrity. If it’s defective, you might be able to get a replacement from the manufacturer.
    • It’s interesting how much a 3D system changes your understanding. Observing top players in full detail and realizing the trail knee shouldn’t fully extend is a great example of why being open to new info is so important. I like your approach: not trying to be “right,” but trying to teach correctly based on actual evidence. Makes sense why golfers would benefit from this perspective.
    • I would say both are equally not the best for golf. Is it better than nothing, sure.  Golf is an athletic motion. Professional golfers are doing a comprehensive workout routine focusing on strength, power, flexibility, stability. They might include some yoga into the routine. I would put both of them in the recovery bin, not golf enhancement bin.  If you want to increase swing speed, core strength, longevity in golf and life, then lift heavy weights.
