Product Endorsement - Grips!

Okie! Time to shamelessly endorse products!

The Lamkin Crossline Full Cord grips. Love these guys. Got it on all my irons both the TP MCs and Burner 2.0 and wedges. The grip is great and it lasts. I tend to sweat a lot and in Singapore with the humidity, the cord grips helps to wick away the sweat and keep the grip dry. Further the cord lends to better grip and less slippage, really important when your swing speed increases. Some people complain that the cord is rough, but not a problem for me.

My Driver is set with the Golf Pride New Decade MulitCompound WhiteOut. The lower part is made of High-Perfomance Rubber and the upper part is made up new White MultiCompound Material that is mixed with black BCT Cord which helps to control moisture and gives improved traction to the upper hand. Thus due to the mixture of compounds its considered a hybrid grip. The cord is less then the Lamkin Crossline Full Cord and thus is more comfortable, however the lower rubber part of the grip tends to wear a bit. One thing to note is that the grip is not a 360 degree grip, so if you use adjustable drivers the Logo and design will be off centred if not set to standard setting.

Haven't needed to Regrip my putter. But the Hybrids/ Fairway I use an old model Golf Pride New Decade. Full rubber and non-corded. The choice was made because I needed to find a lightweight grip to complement the light weight set up of the Cleveland Ultralite system. The weight was about 36g-37g. This is because a heavier grip will upset the balance of the club and this is quite detrimental to your swing. The little things add up in golf.

So don't forget to Regrip! And choose either of these babies!
