Just got my gamegolf live and am installing the tags and I have no idea where to put the putter tag. The superstroke grip has a steel cap that can either be just a cover or a counterweight. Any solutions?

Glue it on. Cut the screw part off.

There’s the support article on their site about this.

I cut the screw part off, and used 3M double-sided tape. Have had it on for over a year without issue.

I went with the tape compared to the glue simply for ease of removal if I decided to change grips or putters.

I think this is the link @iacas was referring to.

FWIW my "glue" is silicone glue, so it's easy to remove, too, but stays on just fine in my experience(s).

Thanks for posting the link.

I'm kind of tempted to do this for all the clubs.

After I searched these boards and didn’t find an answer I posted this topic and then I googled it 🙂 found the topic linked above. 

 

What I did, because I didn’t want to ruin a tag was just take my counterweight out and made a ball from duct tape in the shaft and then another layer over the duct tape just to be safe.

So rather than "ruin" a tag, you ruined the putter (by removing the counterweight)?

We’ll see 🙂 

 

there are two factors to this:

1st off I’m a terrible putter and in 2 hours I’ll be playing a round and will see if this affects me in any way

2nd when I bought the grip I got a screw with a counterweight and just a plain screw cover - I installed the counterweight but never did any comparing with/without

3rd “destroying” my putter is reversible. Destroying the tag isn’t.

I'm in the same situation. I have a superstroke grip but wanted to find a way to mount the tag without cutting/gluing or ruining the tag or my grip.

What I did was I purchased the silicon/rubber cap/covers that you put on the legs of tables/chairs to help prevent scratches

Not a Game Golf tag but I drilled a suitable hole in the metal in the end of my putter grip and screwed the Arccos tag in.

    • Which was his second hole, yeah. I talked with Mav's coach/instructor last night, ha ha.
    • Yikes! Colin Morikawa withdraws on 11th tee after the practice swing made his lower back twinge.

    • My flop shots are 6-7° down (AoA). Does that answer it? 😄  The longer answer is… You have to be able to do both shots.
    • I hope you don't mind me raising this one from the dead. I got shortgamechef's video access thing for a few months in 2024. I watched his yip fix videos (the general gist is similar to the first video above, but with a lot more detail) and it made a lot of sense. I was working on it in my backyard off a mat for a while and my yippy thing was mostly gone. Aside from anything else, the flop shot using that technique is so easy and controllable. But I got onto a golf course for the first time of the year and found myself by the green on a downslope with the ball sitting down a little in the rough and I was, not to put too fine a point on it, f***ed. Shallow is all well and good from a good flat lie and I understand it, but you can't make that your be all and end all. I still don't know if it's a good idea to use steep all the time or just when you need to. I have a hard enough time with one technique, let alone too.  Just got a pitching skillest lesson with Erik and unless I misunderstood things some, he wants me a bit steeper. @iacas - where do you fall on the steep vs shallow argument and how do you vary it according to need?
