Thanks for the input. I wonder if it is a mold release agent that they use. I have the DTX and did not feel any issue with them at first use.

When we were there, they mentioned that they do not use mold release.

Kyle, not sure what size you use. I use standard. The Pure Pros I got at Newport in standard felt a tad bit smaller at first. I felt Drew's midsize installs later and was kicking myself for not upsizing. So dunno, might be a size thing. You might be a candidate for a size up just for pure. Grips can be weird that way. 

Funny, I didn't like them the first day (don't think they affected play at all) because I thought they felt too tacky :-). Now I love them, but will consider trying one of my hybrids in mid size first.

Just put a wrap of masking tape, or duct tape, or something underneath.

Yes, or that. Actually that's exactly what Mike suggested. He mentioned that he had more than a single wrap if memory serves me.

I've actually tried up to 5 wraps underneath the standard size. That's the beauty of Pure Grips, you can customize the feel because you can take them off and try again.
