The last couple months I've been mulling over the prospects when it comes to replacement golf grips. I've pretty much only used the Golf Pride Full Cord Tour Wrap - they came on my current set of clubs, and my previous two sets were equipped with those as well. The only downside to them as been that they're pretty rough on the hands.
Grips look like they've come a long way in the last few years, and I haven't really been keeping up. As luck would have it though, I got to attend a focus group a couple weeks ago that was for golf grips - and I got to hit 15 identical clubs, all with different grips. They had several there that I had been considering, along with the old standby tour wrap.
While I was somewhat biased against Winn grips going into it, they felt SO much better than anything out there that I went and switched. I chose the XF (extra firm, 5XWC) model, as I thought the original RF style was a bit too squishy. At $4 a grip they were pretty reasonably priced as well. I'm still concerned about the longevity, so we'll see how that goes. I've read mixed reviews. For now though, they feel great!
