Golf Grips

Golf is a challenging game, and some days you’ve got to persevere around the course when you’re just not hitting the ball quite right.

We’ve all been there where we’ve been excited to hit the course but certain aspects of our game just aren’t connecting, and it feels like we’re struggling to get going.

But that’s the beauty of golf! When you pull off that amazing shot and put away a tidy par or birdie, it can feel positively elating.

If you’re regularly struggling with an aspect of your game then maybe it’s time for some change. When was the last time you had a go playing with some different equipment?

When it comes to hitting good shots, everything stems from how good your grip is. If it’s tattered and old, it might just slip through your fingers.

It can be hard to shake old habits and change up your golf gear, but once you try these Golf Pride grips, you’ll wonder why you waited so long.

Embracing change

Change can feel intimidating, but sometimes a bit of change is what’s best for us, especially when the conditions of the game are changing.

We have winter on the way when our fingers are colder and can get numb in the frosty weather. It’s best to get ahead of the season rather than being caught short once it’s upon us.

You may love your grips and how your golf clubs currently feel, but they certainly love us less the older and more worn they get. If you’re playing with grips that are years old and are showing a fair amount of wear-and-tear, there’s a good change you’ll lose your traction mid-swing and slip your fingers, resulting in a wasted shot. Not only do they look and feel a lot better than worn old grips, Golf Pride’s grips are fundamentally built to purpose.

The CPX grips provide an incredibly soft experience and are perfect for going on your irons. Ideal for putting, the Reverse Taper grips help anchor your top hand while reducing your bottom hand for smooth acceleration.

We’re here for you to help you get the most out of your golf, and we stock all kinds of winter grips from Golf Pride. Not only are these the best golf grips you can get on the market, we have a handy selection process in place to ensure you find just the right grips for your clubs.

Golf Pride's 4-4-2 selection process

4-4-2 might sound like a football formation, but it’s also a convenient way to find your ideal winter grips. The first 4 things to consider when selecting a grip are the grip size, your own unique conditions, the texture you prefer, and your desired firmness.

Part 1 - 4 customer considerations

Size

Finding the right size for you is imperative when it comes to getting the right grip. These range from undersized to jumbo. Your ideal size is when your middle finger is just touching the pad of your thumb when holding the golf club grip in your gloves hand.

Conditions

Moisture management is key when it comes to finding the right grip. If you have sweaty hands or play in the rain often, you’ll need to factor this into your grip decision-making.

Surface Texture

This is a personal one, so how do you like your grips to feel? Do you prefer a smoother grip, one with clear, pronounced patterns, or somewhere in-between?

Firmness

How firm or soft do you want your grip to feel? A firm grip will provide greater feedback at impact, whereas a softer feel will dampen vibrations. It’s all about what feels good to you.

Part 2 - 4 key grip types

Smooth (Tour Velvet)

Soft & Tacky (CPX)

Hybrid (MCC)

Full Cord (Z-Grip)

Grips like the Z-Grip are full cord grips and are incredibly firm. This kind of grip combines 2 layers of texture to deliver the player an excellent sense of control.

Part 3 - 2 kinds of additional tech

You’ve now found your ideal winter grip, and the final part in our selection process is whether you’re interested in applying any additional technologies to it. For example, Golf Pride’s Align Technology features a grip with a high-contrast coloured alignment line so you’ll know exactly where to put your fingers each time you reach for a club.

Similarly fascinating is the MCC Plus4 Technology that applies the grip the feel of four independent layers on the bottom half to give you a more fluid release of tension. This tech feels fantastic and we’d really recommend you give it a feel yourself!

The hole we all love! Swirling wind, horseshoe lake, trees, elevated tee. It is the Greatest of all Time here at CMGC.

I always like to send a low punchy shot in. Anyone else have a preference on how to play the 6th of Badgers Sett aka the GOAT?
