" 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.

    • The chatter in my brain is when the distance is between clubs since I am pretty weak at shortened backswings, etc. I try to simply decide if being long or short is the better outcome and choose my club based on that and simply not even try for the “real” distance.  For me a full normal swing is what I strive for.
    • I saw this comment made in a golf article... "Most golfers stand over a 4- or 5-iron still negotiating with themselves. They think about how hard to swing, whether they have the right club, if they have the aim correct and more. It’s a lot to deal with and long irons punish the “half-in” golf swing." I am not sure the "most golfers" is correct regarding the bolded part. I can understand if there is a bunker, water, and/or OB that a lot of golfers would be fixated on that. I am not sure that leads to ending up more times there. Pending your level in golf, the variance is so large in outcomes, it could be just with in the expected outcomes. I can understand if have a big lake on the right side of the hole being one of the most terrifying shots for right-handed amateur golfers.  I am not sure many golfers are standing over the ball talking to themselves, "Ok, maybe I should step back and pull the 4-iron. Am I lined up right? Oh, the wind came up, should I swing harder? What am I going to have for dinner tonight, maybe steak. (Joking, somewhat 😛)" A question is that how much chatter do you get while standing over the ball. Are you questioning the everything about your golf shot?
