It's time to re-grip my Adams Super S set (3 wood, 3 & 4 hybrid and 5-S). Have a new driver and putter, happy with stock grip on them. 

For the new grips I am looking for something with a softer feel without being as soft/slick as tradtional wrap. Anyone have something they enjoy using or recommend a particular brand/type?

Thanks for any suggestions.

I can recommend two.  My favorite grip is from Iomic, I use the X Evolution.  These grips stay tacky virtually forever.   Another really good one is from Pure grips, the DTX.  This grip is pretty firm, but really textured, and the rubber compound retains its tackiness well.  I believe they sell softer-feeling grips, perhaps someone can help point to a specific model.

When I want a grip change for the sake of trying something new, I'll do ONE club with a new grip.  Just had a Wynn Dri-Tac midsize put on my 5-hybrid.

It's kind of 'spongy,' very soft and very tacky feeling as new.  I've heard these grips will wear out quickly though.  I'll play it early next year and decide if gripping more clubs is something I want to do.Product Detail Hero

There was a thread somewhere about your favorite golf product that helps your game, or something.

My answer was my grips; Golf Pride CP2 Wraps. I absolutely LOVE these grips.I have them on every club put the putter. My stock grips were in fine condition but I don't like most stock club grips because they're too slick and thin for me. As soon as I re-gripped all my irons I was in love and in dramatically improved my game overall. I ended up doing all my clubs with them.

I grip my own clubs now too, which is kind of fun. Doesn't save THAT much money, but it's fun and I know I'm doing them right. Since I go +1 on the tape often times shops will ignore that request (I know because I re-did one for practice...)

I put a lot of play time on mine last year. I cleaned them only once about 2 months ago with warm water and Dawn and they're like new again.

I don't even ever wipe down my grips when I'm playing, or after I've played, or anything. Just a once a year or once every 6 months cleaning.

The Lamkin iline was a nice grip. Hard to find in stores these days so i switched. Had a solid firm feel with good tack. Lasted me the entire season. 1 to 2 times a week up until November 2016. Changed to Golf Pride multi compounds. They are ok not worth the price point in my opinion. Will most likely change by July of this year.

Pure Grips DTX. 

They last forever and they mimic a corded grip. I honestly can't remember when I put the grips on.

I second the Dri-Tac.  Very comfortable and has helped the finger joints as another positive.  Seemed to have lasted on my playing clubs.   I've now re gripped my practice set from the stock grips.   Can get a little slick when wet however.

September 2015? I know that's when I put one on my driver.  Did you have them before that?

@AWebb85 what I did last time I decided to go with a new style of grips, was narrow it down to 4 grips I liked, and re-grip clubs with those 4 grips.  I left them on there for a few rounds and range sessions, and then went with the one I liked best.  I have stuck with that same grip since, Golf Pride Tour Wrap

I recently regripped all of my clubs, as well as my brother who keeps his clubs at my place, and a few hand me downs for my kid sister (fringe benefit of Golfsmith going out of business was its steep discounts on grips). I put Golf Pride MultiCompounds on about 30 clubs. I did go out of my way to put the MCC Plus 4s on my wedges. I liked the softness and lack of taper for choking down for touch shots.

    • I’m not sure I agree. It’s just what the majority find more entertaining. Most people prefer women’s gymnastics over men in the Olympics. How much hype is there with the men’s compared to the women’s? I bet you can rattle off several big names in women’s gymnastics and only a handful of men. Women’s tennis …same thing. And sure enough, their purses are the same. However, WNBA, awful…LPGA, not near as much interest than PGA. Don’t think it’s really that complicated IMO.

    • Hence your Avatar!😜 I drink a lot of water during the day if I’m playing or exercising. I get cramps otherwise.
    • If you walk up to a food/drink kiosk at Magic Kingdom and ask the person for a cup of "magic water" they will give you a small cup of Sprite for free. About 3 fingers worth. They don't sell alcohol at MK anymore so I go over to one of the courses while she hangs out there. 
    • This isn't some kind of natural fact. It's a lot more complicated than this implies.
