I just bought a Odyessey Proto-type 9 (major score on ebay). I love the club, hate the grip. Those Gen3's just feel too hard for me. I am going to replace my grip as I do with all my putters. I was thinking of going with a mid-sized golf pride tour traditions. Semi-soft & mid sized. The problem I have (among many) is that I am never sure when I have the right grip for me. Maybe I am unsure or unsatisfied, but I always think maybe I can find a better fit. When trying grips out at the local shop (northway 8), I try every club they have. They all tend to have stock grips and never have mid size grips. I have tried mid sized winn grip on a previous club and did well with it. I also tried a golf pride 1/2 wrap and was not as impressed as the season wore on. I know I dislike the stock odyessey grip. Dont like the Ping grip. I do like the Ping black out and the black cleveland putter grip. I have smallish hands 7" from palm to end of middle finger. I have noticed that when I put my wrists break not back towards me, but away from me. To combat this I have started using the forward press. I am just looking for feedback from people with similar situations. What have to found? What have you settled on? Does a mid size have benefits for someone like me? Otherwise my option is to just keep griping and regriping. Starting with the Golf pride mid size tour traditions. If that does not work Ping Black out. Maybe I am just writing to convince myself, but the uncertianty is always a struggle on my mind. The idea that there maybe better out there weights on me and allows me never to stick with something for more than a season.

If your hands are breaking down, maybe you need a new way to place your hands on the grip, instead of a grip.

Or

Tried a round grip?

I did not until last year - but have found it very comfortable.
