I have golf pride mmc plus 4 on all my clubs and was playing with a mate a few weeks ago and he bought this second hand mizuno wedge that’s about a year old. So he’s complaining he doesn’t like the wedge and I said can I have a shot. I hit a few shots, the wedge was quite nice but I was really impressed with the grip it was a lamkin cross line. So the next day I go into the pro shop and get my 3 wedges done and want to use them for a week or two before deciding if I should do all the clubs.
Right away when I pick up my wedges I noticed they don’t feel as grippy as my mates pre owned wedge that’s about a year old. So last night was first time I’ve seen him in over a week and right away I say show me your old wedge and we both agreed my new grips and no where near and as grippy as his old one so somethings not right.
I am thinking there’s three possible things that it could be.
1. Dare I say it the pro shop has bought fake grips ?
2. Lamkin have cut costs and are using cheaper materials now ?
3. Possible the grips have been laying in a cupboard for years in the pro shop and have worn away ?
We are playing the Tuesday medal together and was thinking I should take my new grips in with the old one to show the pro and see what he thinks. Just wanted to get others opinions please?
