Dear all

Have the intention to change the grips of my irons.

Appreciate it if nice GR Khakis could give their views and recommend a suitable pro shop and the charges respectively.

Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,

Cyp_PGA bro, u very correct. I used to put layers of tape on my grip to make it thick but not nice lah. So i decided to use mid size multi-compound and put satay stick inside. Wow! midsize grip is for me. I thought mid size grip for ang moh hands only. My glove size is 25. So i think my 'brother' size also like ang moh. Laughing

if you insert a satay stick at the bottom of the grip where you left hand rest, your create a rib thats thicker than the usual rib allowed. In this way you get a sense of guide when you grip the club.

You are very correct bro DGman. It really slot your fingers to the grip. Anyway we use our fingers to grip not the whole hand. To DIY, if you don't have vice clamp and first time for you it's difficult.

you can tape the stick to the shaft using 2 small single side adhesive tape, then wrap the stick with the shaft using the usual double sided adhesive. that way its very easy to instal but a shaft holder or vice clamp is needed.

also its best to spilt the satay stick into half the thickness, as it is, its just too much rib.

Bro Alvin, you should try. Very steamy one. Your ball will go straight one. Because the alignment is always on the fingers and the finger grip is very important. Once your finger grip is there, all u need is just your shoulder move. Sure hit it square. TRY IT AND YOU WONT REGRET! Its my innovation. It's call HELME SATAY GRIP!

I might probably be a golf idiot cos I still clueless despite the elaborations given by bro.

Any pro shop to recommend to get the "simple" job done?

DG man from Bigfish? helpmeahmand from?

Thanks.

Hi all..am begining to suffer from slippery golf grips due to the hotter weather I am experiencing here in HCMC now. Averaging 36-38* every day for the past 2 weeks.

I read that Golf Pride munti-compound is good. If it is not available here in Vietnam, anyone has any good recommendations for alternatives??

Also if can elaborate or show pics on how the satay stick thing would work, it would be great.

THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm a big fan of the Golf Pride BCT cord grip. Others swear by the Golf Pride Tour Velvet (GPTV), while others love the Golf Pride New Decade Multi Compound (NDMC).

I've used Lamkins in the past, but their cord grips seem to be heavier than the GP ones.

Courier is one thing. The !@#(*%& govt here will tax me. Unless I can get someone to hand carry for me. Which also means that customs officer at airport might give them trouble..

Had a friend hand carry some golf clubs up to HCMC. it was packed nicely as it had to be checked in. Went she picked it up, customs was giving her trouble saying it was new product, must tax etc etc. She just told them it was her boss' driver and it was use. If cannot, she will leave it with them and her boss will come and talk to them.

Customs officer LPPL and let her pass
