I'm getting my cobra amp 3 wood and my sand wedge and putter re gripped and was wondering what grips are soft and not too hard. Like multi compound golf pride hurt my hands. I was thinking golf pride niion on the two clubs and superstroke putter grip

Had the same issue a few years ago with the multi compounds. I hit a lot of golf balls between the range and playing. Loved the grips but they killed my hands. Would wake up in the middle of the night with the hands cramping. A year or so I switched over to the PURE Pro (PURE has othe models) on the recommendation of many here and have had zero issues. I've tried just a wide variety of grip brands and personally wouldn't consider a brand other than PURE. Cannot speak highly enough of the grip and the company/customer service.

Iomic Stick 2.3 are wonderful and just the right balance of soft and firm. I stopped using a glove when I got Imoic grips on all my clubs. I just changed putter grip to Super Stroke 3.0. Nice feel.

Agreed, but they may not last as long as some others.  I like the feel and they stay tacky.

I regripped with Winn lites this year and absolutely love the feel but I can't believe how fast they wear out. I do most of my drilling and practice with my 6 iron and looking at my 5 iron side by side the wear on that 6i grip is ridiculous. I'm hoping to find something similar in feel with a bit more durability. I'm also very intrigued by what I keep hearing about pure grips.

If you like GPride grips, try the Patriot.  The red, white and blue grip.

I personally have switched to tacki-mac IT2 grips.  They're soft, sweaty wrists and arms don't effect them hardly at all.  And, they seem to be decently durable.  Plus, they are half the price of any "name brand" grip.

I tried Winn grips in the past, I've never liked them.  Not sticky enough, wear quickly

So I ended up getting the mulct compound for the soul purpose that they didn't have niions. All tough it out for a few months then get them Also got the fatso superstroke and I'm putting like I know what I'm doing now. Played my first 9 under par ever. Didn't miss anything inside of 10 feet and made two putts from around 40 or 50 feet!

    • Day 24: did a stack session. Worked a bit on downswing feels during breaks. 
    • Day 444 - 2025-12-18 Light day of hotel room work. GEARS Summit v2.0 today. Good day.
    • Day 38 (18 Dec 25) - got out in the backyard with grandson this afternoon.  We got into a little game of pitching the ball from about 25yds to a target point just off the asphalt lane behind the backyard.  Goal - just clear it with a quick hop and stop.  Focused on using the wedge swing motion I was talking with the course pro yesterday….smooth and thru just bruising the grass.  In addition to a concentrated focus on technique, it also called for a quiet mind locked in on target point.  Rehearsed this with both the 50° and 55° wedges.  
    • I listened to the Shaun Webb one about the swing coach app. Sounds like a great thing and will (hopefully) be very useful for me. I do think the hosts are underestimating where AI could be in a few years. Right now it's just regurgitating stuff that it has been told or it has scrubbed from somewhere else and a human guiding things will be quite a lot more helpful than just the AI, but it's going to keep developing and it will reach the stage where it's figuring this stuff out on its own. Time will come when it will have you do a TPI style screen and take various height/arm length/leg length etc. measurements, have you tell it some history and your time constraints and goals and what not and it will watch a video of your swing face on and DTL and it will know exactly what you need to work on. 
    • I found it entertaining, but the announcing was lousy.  How did the measuring on the final shot start with Rory being closer and being told he won, and then with no explanation it turns out Scottie won?  Weird.
