Lamkin Genesis Crossline Cord grip


Golfer_1993

Recommended Posts

So while checking the Milled Grind 2 wedges of TaylorMade during lunch, I saw this would be the stock grip:

If I'm reading this correctly, it will have the softness of the Genesis material found in the Sonar golf grips, with the gripness of the Crossline pattern and the cord.

 

Do you think this grip a TaylorMade special, or just a pre-taste of a new Lamkin model coming out late this year or next year?

Looks to be a TM special at this point

Probably just a TM special. Lamkin tried something similar (without the cord) in the past with the Crossline REL Ace, the grey one with the red butt cap. The Crossline pattern with a softer, more squishy feel just didn't work for me, standard REL Ace was way better. Lamkin didn't have them in the catalog for too long.

Really liked the feel of this grip when checking out the MG2, was just looking on Lamkin's website, this grip isn't listed. On a side note MG2 has been ordered.

Check out the Player's Cord if you are looking for a soft cord grip. I just re-gripped with them and I'm really liking it.

The REL Ace 3Gen & UTX are the perfect grips IMO

 

As for the Genesis Cross line I believe the new Cross line 360 on their site is a Genesis material grip. Also I assume the Genesis Cord will be a release in 2020.

I called Lamkin yesterday to ask about the future of the UTx grip. They said they are phasing that grip out but are releasing a new grip called the Genesis Crossline Cord grip. They said it’s currently on the new TaylorMade wedges and will be released to purchase in stores in the next month or two. They said it will initially only be offered in the color scheme that is on the TaylorMade wedge that is at local golf stores now. I went yesterday to golf galaxy to see it and loved the feel. I’ll be waiting for the release and purchasing for my irons next month when it is released.

That's disappointing to hear. I guess I'll be keeping an eye out for deals and stock up on them while I can.

Yes, I have them on some wedges two full wraps and built up the bottom hand (2 or 3 further wraps it was a while ago I did it)to feel like the TS1s I have on my irons. Really pleased with the outcome and the grips aren't showing any wear really even with a hell of a lot of back garden pitching practice during lockdown. As a previous longtime crossline cord user thinking about doing this for all of them at the next regroup.

Any more updates on this grip? Is this really the replacement for UTx? It looks like Lamkin is still continuing to carry UTx (which I hope they do forever).

They should carry both. Other than cord they are nothing alike in my experience. The UTX are a much firmer grip.

+1 on this.

 

The Genesis cord are a very different grip than UTx. I'm surprised how soft the Genesis is. I think they will appeal to the right person. I've enjoyed trying them out, but have found they are really not for me.

@Valtiel what grips are you using now? Just bought one crossline cord and one genesis today to put on two irons and test them out. My current multi-compound grips are 7 years old so definitely overdue.
