I ran into Brad Enlow at the St. Louis Golf Expo.  For several years he has been selling a heavy, reverse-taper grip for golf clubs. Brad operates out of Manhattan, Kansas, home of the Wildcats.

ST had a thread on this 2010, but only had a few responses (last one in 2012).

Anyway, I bought one grip to put on a demo 6 iron which matches my iron set. If anyone is currently using Enlow grips, how do you like them?

I installed an Enlow grip on my Ping G10 driver. I'm not very good , but I have dropped 10 strokes since installing the grip. My slice has disappeared, and I'm hitting fairways for a change. I would recommend anyone with an open mind should try it. Best money I've spent in golf since I started. A couple of the guys I play with said that I'm crazy and that it would promote a slice, I think they have had a change of opinion after seeing the results. Just wonder how long it will take before they decide to jump on the band wagon

and start hitting more fairways with me.

Huh!  I've never heard of that grip.  What is it about the grip that eliminates your slice?

I wish I could tell you. Everyone said that it would make it worse, but I not only eliminated the slice, I gained distance. Maybe someone on here can explain my results.

I have one of his grips, just haven't put it on a club yet.  I finally fixed my swing flaw(s) that were contributing to my slice and have pretty much all but cured it, i can call it a baby fade for now.  Wish I could give a better review of it, just haven't seen a reason to try it yet.

I prefer reverse taper grips but the Enolw grips are huge in my opinion.  I mean even bigger than a jumbo grip with 5 or 6 wraps flipped upside down.  They really threw off the swingweight of the club also because they have to weight at least 90 grams.  I prefer the feel pro release grips because they are about the size of a midsize grip flipped upside down and they are just the perfect fit for my grip.

    • Day 35, June 8. Before leaving for work this morning (yes, I'm posting this quite late relative to the practice), I spent 15 minutes practicing at home, into a net.  This time, it was primarily 9-iron (full swings), with some UW (full and half) and a few 6-iron.  
    • Day 73: just some mirror work today. Working on feels for being open and getting the front shoulder down. 
    • I'm liking this. Finally getting down hands in front of my trail leg pocket consistently at A6 with much better clubhead position (relatively not as tipped out). I can really pressure the shaft through impact with good face control  from this position and stay in balance. Won my first one v one march 5&4 against a 4 hcp who routinely drives it 35-40 yards past me in the men's club match play . Frustrated him with some solid iron play and air tight putting.   
    • Day 279 6-8  Worked on low point control skills work tonight. will be doing this for a few weeks. Tonight was just trying figure out how to get low point forward.  No ball.  
    • Day 8 (Jun 8 26) - Stayed the drill but added two additional irons (7i, 8i and 9i) - using Divot Board and hard foam balls - focused on tempo and purposed pause at the top….noticing how open the club is marking the board when I try to kill it and how much more square (and better distance) when I focus on these keys.
