I've been using the Iomic X-grip for a while, but may try the Pure DTX if the one on my driver works well in the wet weather I'm bound to see in Ireland.  I generally mount them with the logo up, although with adjustable hosels that can change with the adjustments.  Right now the logo on my driver points to the right, away from the target.

I know some people who hate them, but I live by WINN Dry-Tacs. Logo always up and centered.

They wear our a little quicker than some of the other grips I've played in the past, but I usually end up saving a lot of my gloves from being shredded by cords and they are by far the best bad-weather grips I've ever played with. Great for if you play in the rain a lot.

I won a set of Dri-Tacs and really love the way they feel. I installed them label up. I have a Pure grip on my driver with label down. The Pure grip was too rough to have facing up and bothered my hand. Although I that was before I changed my grip so I don't know that it matters anymore.

I am also enjoying the Winn Dri-Tacs. I like a softer feeling grip. In hot weather, need not worry about slippage, easy to clean - a wipe down with a moist towel (don't soak them, just a moist towel and dry or you ruin the grip). I don't place a lot of torque on a grip and if one needs shock absorption, comfort, and tack, it doesn't get much better.  No issues with durability yet, which was a common knock on Winns. I purchased the 20th anniversary grips and it gives the club a faux leather look.

My all-time favorite grips are leather grips - tacky and comfy in all weather and will last 3-4 years. It makes up for the high cost. I used GripMaster but bestgrips is another popular brand.

I've been using Pure DTX grips and like them a lot but recently bought a used set of clubs that had the Golf Pride Z grip on them and for some reason I really like them.  I don't know how they will be in hot or wet weather but yesterday on the range I felt like I had more control over the club.

PURE DTX Midsized, logo down. I don't think I'll ever go to a different brand. These things just don't wear out.

I use PURE Pros with the logo down, but my last set were PURE DTX that I installed with the logo up because it seemed like the grippy texture was directional.

I really don't like logos. I turn the tires on my truck around to the inside.so the white lettering doesn't show. I don't wear golf logo hats. 

A professional golfer could probably beat all the local club guys with a set of $20 clubs from Goodwill.

GP NDMC logo up. When I regrip I use lots of solvent and move alignment lines to fit how my eye sets the face for my stock shot. With normal grip it helps me setup if I get out of whack.

    • I've played Bali Hai, Bear's Best and Painted Desert. I enjoyed Bali Hai the most--course was in great shape, friendly staff and got paired in a great group. Bear's Best greens were very fast, didn't hold the ball well (I normally have enough spin to stop the ball after 1-2 hops).  The sand was different on many holes. Some were even dark sand (recreation of holes from Hawaii). Unfortunately I was single and paired with a local "member" who only played the front 9.  We were stuck behind a slow 4-some who wouldn't let me through even when the local left. Painted Desert was decent, just a bit far from the Strip where we were staying.

    • Day 106 - Worked on chipping/pitching. Focus was feeling the club fall to the ground as my body rotated through. 
    • Honestly, unless there's something about that rough there that makes it abnormally penal or a lost ball likely, this might be the play. I don't know how the mystrategy cone works, but per LSW, you don't use every shot for your shot zones. In that scatter plot, you have no balls in the bunker, and 1 in the penalty area. The median outcome seems to be a 50 yard pitch. Even if you aren't great from 50 yards, you're better off there than in a fairway bunker or the penalty area on the right of the fairway. It could also be a strategy you keep in your back pocket if you need to make up ground. Maybe this is a higher average score with driver, but better chance at a birdie. Maybe you are hitting your driver well and feel comfortable with letting one rip.  I get not wanting to wait and not wanting to endanger people on the tee, but in a tournament, I think I value playing for score more than waiting. I don't value that over hurting people, but you can always yell fore 😆 Only thing I would say is I'm not sure whether that cone is the best representation of the strategy (see my comment above about LSW's shot zones). To me, it looks like a 4 iron where you're aiming closer to the bunker might be the play. You have a lot of shots out to the right and only a few to the left. Obviously, I don't know where you are aiming (and this is a limitation of MyStrategy), but it seems like most of your 4 iron shots are right. You have 2 in the bunker but aiming a bit closer to the bunker won't bring more of your shots into the bunker. It does bring a few away from the penalty area on the right.  This could also depend on how severe the penalties are for missing the green. Do you need to be closer to avoid issues around the green?  It's not a bad strategy to hit 6 iron off the tee, be in the fairway, and have 150ish in. I'm probably overthinking this.
