I have the TourSilk II grips on my 5-PW irons and just put the Widow Maker red/black hybrid (corded top & textured bottom) on my 51, 57, 64 wedges. I really like these grips (firm top & feel bottom, water resistant - for when you place wedge on edge of early morning dew soaked fringe/green, look bad-ass) They are similar to Golf Pride New Decade Multi-compound that I have on my driver. Grips on Cleveland 588 Wedges & Adams Driver

Do you find that either of them (Tour Silk II or the Hybrid) plays a bit smaller? i.e. standard is more like an undersized. I did some research last night after seeing some Black Widow grips at Dicks yesterday and much of what I read said they do run smaller than the stated site. this is actually good for me being I play undersized grips which are hard to come by for different options. But wanted to get your take on these specific ones you tried. I have yet to find a multicompound in an undersized.

Hey erock9174: The TourSilk II grips are smaller than say a standard Golf Pride Tour Velvet. The Widowmaker are closer in size to GPTV though. Here is a pic that may help. Also check out BW website for overall specs. The TourSilk II has a core size of 58 & the Widowmaker has core size of 60. [url]http://www.bwgrips.com[/url]

      New or Used Driver

      By Supersoft ·

      I am in the market to buy a new or mint+ used driver. I am a high handicap player that usually uses Regular Flex Men's 10.5 degrees and I golf right handed. I can't shot shape the ball and have trouble always hitting the ball in the center of the face and it usually goes off to the right and out of play. I am trying to hit straight all the time so I can hit more fairways, also on off center shots I would like the ball to be in play so I don't sacrifice strokes all the time. I usually look for forgiveness, distance a little distance lost is ok if I am hitting more fairways then that is what i want, adjustable or non adjustable is fine, price is also a factor around 100 but under 300. I also need help getting the ball in the ball in the air and going higher. Any recommendations or other help when buying a driver are welcome and thanks
