Massive putter grips

[PhilTheFragger]

When we were at Wentworth last week, we saw several pros on the putting green using putters with humongous grips
Are they any good for mere mortals or is it a pro thang

Anyone used one?

 

[Doh]

There is a few players at our club that use them it's supposed to take the wrist's out of play.

Are you listening Fragger?

I use a 2 thumb putter grip - it's made my putting 100% better. It's strange to start, but after a few rounds it becomes just as natural as 'regular' grips!

SuperStroke grip on my putter has helped no end and thinking about putting a thicker one on. Certainly helps eliminate wrists from the stroke which for me is great.

I shortened my putter and placed on a jumbo grip and I'm having excellent results. I lost the feel at first and had to increase the strength of my strokes but that didn't take long to get used to. It definitely removes any wristy actions you may have.

What he said. I have gone from 36+ putts to around 30.

So what is the brand name?

2 thumb putter grip doesn't sound like the marketing department has woken up yet

Nope - that's the brand name. 2Thumb putter grip. It's by an independant company but may now have something to do with Golf Pride.

Mine doesn't!

I have to use the umbrella tube or when its wet, it has to go into a spare club tube, good job I don't carry 14 clubs!

 

[duncan mackie]

having put a Jumbo on a spare putter I'm inclined towards a mid size to replace the standard, thin/hard, grip that's been on it for some time.

I think many people would benefit from considering whether their existing putter grip is suited to them - I've changed my putting grip but hadn't considered the bit I was gripping! Will pop into the pro tommorrow and deal with it.

Have had one on the putter for a few weeks now and would say outside of taking the wrists out, it also encourages a more positive stroke.

That was part of my buying criteria, it had to fit my bag...

I think many people should also consider whether their putter rather than the grip is right for them

 

[PhilTheFragger]
