" The large surface area brings more of the grip into contact with the hands,
inhibiting breakdown of the wrists and encouraging use of the preferred arm-and-shoulders putting motion. Scientific tests have shown that the SuperStroke requires up to 32% less grip tension and represents a significant improvement over conventional narrow putter grips. The SuperStroke’s size encourages use of a “soft hands” technique and ensures a smooth and fluid putting stroke. "

Does anyone on the board have one of these puppies? Sounds interesting, and it is the same putter grip that K.J. Choi had on his putter when played in the AT&T.; Whoever has one of these...Does it work?

I watched the informational video and it seems like a pretty interesting technology but I'm not one to mess with putter technology I guess. I don't know if I could past the visual aesthetics of the grip, even if the technology worked.

I am skeptic on this one. It might help but I am not having a goofy looking grip on my pretty putter.

work for this company also in sales. Its basically to instill the pendulum motion in the putting stroke and to get people to stop using their wrists. Its very odd to say the least to start with, but I will tell you that when I used it on an indoor putting surface in our office, my putts did seem to roll a lot better.

OK, so you're a microbiologist, you work for skycaddie in sales and you work for "this company" [

www.superstrokegrip.com] in sales -- anything else we need to know?

For what it's worth, I bought and installed the superstroke on my favorite Never Compromise putter. It worked so well for me that I bought a second and installed on my backup and if they weren't so expensive I would have bought more. I think it works for this wristy putter. Specially 4 ft. in. Kept stats when I first used the unit and went from avg. 34 putts to 30 on same golf course. Caution: it's a big thing and needs a separate compartment or carrying case to carry it around. Also, the piece at the bottom, a plastic insert, has broken on both my units. Customer service said too bad and did not replace the part as requested nor did they evidence any sympathy for my problem. I'd look at the large grip Jimenez is using before I'd buy another superstroke.

All this is just one mans experience. Bottom line: The super large grip has great merit, helps develop a more consistent pendulum stroke but I'm not sure Superstroke has the answer. It's expensive, cumbersome and fragile.

The one jimenez uses, the 2 thumb putter grip, is also half the price of the super stroke. It has 3 variations of it too, and is sold by golfsmith. I think I might try it.

    • Day 16 - Worked on partial wedges and my hybrid. 
    • But it makes it crystal clear that the major drought had nothing to do with his physique, since he was able to do all of that with that physique.
    • I posted this earlier - includes some reasonable analysis and stats, yes?  Does this help?   ******************** Appreciate your responses—seriously. Agreed - Rory's overall play from 2015–2024 has been elite. Twenty wins, constant top-10s, and staying in the top tier of strokes gained stats year after year is no joke. That only makes the major drought more puzzling, not less. And yes, he’s come close—Carnoustie, St. Andrews, LACC—but that almost makes the argument more interesting. When you’ve got a guy that good, who keeps putting himself in position, why hasn’t he sealed the deal in the biggest moments? I do think his transformation post-2014—adding noticeable muscle, changing his physical profile—might’ve altered his swing tempo, feel, or ability to stay loose under extreme pressure. Not during Thursday or even Saturday—but on the back nine on Sunday, when the mental and physical margins get razor thin, especially at Augusta. Is this stat meaningful?  From 2016–2024, Rory lost strokes to the field on Sundays in nearly half of his major appearances, despite being dominant Thursday through Saturday. That pattern suggests it’s not just bad luck or getting beat—it’s a recurring issue with closing, under pressure. It’s tough to measure pressure in a spreadsheet. And Augusta especially punishes any uptick in tension or loss of touch. I’m not saying “getting jacked” is the sole reason for the drought—but looking for subtle shifts that could explain why a generational talent keeps coming up just short in majors, I think it’s worth considering. And OF COURSE - he finally got to the mountaintop, in extreme, dramatic fashion.  Maybe, as others have said, this will equate to cracking the code and going on a major run for the next 5-10 yrs?
    • He started lifting and gained some muscle mass. Whatever you call it is irrelevant. You still haven’t been able to explain why that was preventing him from winning tournaments. You can have theories of course, but don’t confuse that with facts. In the first post you argue that Rory getting bigger hurt his game, but you failed to explain why and how you arrived at that conclusion. Don’t you see why you were “audited” as you said, when you make those assumptions without a sliver of evidence or explanation? The exact same theories were said about Tiger. He also aquired some muscle mass and people claimed it ruined his swing, but there were no facts to support it.
    • Yes sir.  I will drop that word.  Can I say “excellent physical shape”?
