Full details

The Golf Pride Reverse Taper Putter Grip is designed for golfers seeking greater stability and control in their putting stroke. Its key benefit is stabilizing both hands to promote a squarer putter face at impact, regardless of grip style. A potential caveat for some users might be adjusting to the 'Reverse Taper' feel, which has a slimmer upper hand and a wider lower hand section. This grip features innovative technology to counteract an overactive lower hand, enhancing overall putting performance with a soft feel and enhanced tacky texture for superior traction.

FAQs

What is the main advantage of the 'Reverse Taper' design?

The 'Reverse Taper' design features a slimmer upper hand and a wider lower hand. This promotes stability by helping to counteract an overactive lower hand, leading to a more consistent putting stroke.

How does this grip help stabilize the putter face?

By stabilizing both hands during the stroke, the grip technology encourages a more unified and controlled movement, which results in a squarer putter face at impact.

What are the available sizes for this grip?

The Golf Pride Reverse Taper Putter Grip is available in Medium 58R and Large 58R sizes.

Is special adhesive needed for installation?

No, the instructions detail the use of double-sided grip tape and a solvent (like white spirits) for installation, which is a standard method for re-gripping clubs.

How often should I clean the grip?

Periodically wiping the grip with a damp cloth is recommended to maintain its tacky texture and cleanliness. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Can I use this grip on any putter shaft?

Yes, this grip is designed to fit standard putter shafts. The installation process is standard for most golf clubs.

What makes the texture 'enhanced tacky'?

The grip features a dimple pattern throughout its surface combined with a special material compound, which creates an enhanced tacky texture for superior grip and traction.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty sliding grip onto shaft

Ensure there is sufficient solvent on both the shaft tape and inside the grip. The grip must be installed while the tape is wet.

Grip feels loose after installation

Check that the grip was fully seated onto the shaft and that enough solvent was used to allow it to slide into place. Allow adequate drying time (several hours) before use.

Old grip tape is difficult to remove

Use a solvent to help soften the old tape. Be patient and work carefully to avoid damaging the club shaft, especially if it is graphite.

Residue left on shaft after removing old grip

Use mineral spirits or a dedicated grip solvent with a cloth to thoroughly clean the shaft. Ensure all residue is removed before applying new tape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Re-gripping Instructions:

To install the Golf Pride Reverse Taper Putter Grip, you will need the following supplies: PRO-GRIP double-sided grip tape, a utility knife (like a Stanley knife), solvent (white spirits), rubber gloves, and a towel.

  1. Remove Old Grip: Carefully cut away the old grip using the utility knife, always cutting away from yourself. Remove the old grip and any remaining tape. Clean the shaft thoroughly with mineral spirits and a cloth to remove any residue. *Caution: If working with a graphite shaft, be extra careful to avoid scratching or damaging it.*
  2. Apply New Tape: Wrap the double-sided grip tape spirally around the shaft, starting from the top of the shaft down to where the bottom of the new grip will sit. Secure the tape at the top and cover the end of the shaft with extra tape.
  3. Prepare New Grip: Pour a generous amount of solvent (e.g., white spirits) into the new grip. Seal the butt end with your finger or a golf tee, then shake the grip to ensure the entire inside surface is coated with solvent.
  4. Lubricate Tape: Pour the excess solvent from the grip over the double-sided tape on the shaft. Apply generously to ensure smooth installation.
  5. Install New Grip: While the tape is still wet, slide the new grip onto the shaft, starting with the butt end. Push it down firmly and ensure it is aligned as desired. This step must be completed quickly before the solvent evaporates.
  6. Drying: Allow the new grips to dry completely for several hours before playing to ensure a secure bond.

Compatibility:

This grip is designed to fit standard putter shafts. It is available in Medium 58R and Large 58R sizes.

Care:

To maintain the tacky texture and cleanliness of your grip, wipe it down periodically with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals, as they may degrade the rubber material. Ensure the grip is dry before use.
