Salty Putter Grips


rlheiman

Recommended Posts

I just wanted to share a new putter grip that I've been using for a number of rounds now. I really like it. I put it on a Miura MK-007.

 

Salty Putter Grips -- It is a cork grip. It is slightly larger than standard and lighter. The feel is just like a cork grip on a fishing pole. Firm yet velvety smooth. They are not in full scale production yet, but you might want to check them out.

They are fragile prior to installation, but once it is on the putter, it seems very solid. It is hard to tell long term for sure, but seems to holding up very nicely on the putter. Even with some(only a couple) slams back into the bag. I'll be curious to see how it does by the end of this season.

I could see sanding these down to make custom shapes or underlistings for leather grips.

I'd like to throw one of these on my BeCu Anser. I could probably pull the leadtape off as it would do wonders for how the weight feels in hand.

At $30 a little pricing IMO ..
I'd be interested in seeing how it would feel but $30 seems a little expensive just to try it out ..

You pay $45 for leather wrap, and really this is in that same league when it comes to grip preference. I agree that a $20-$25 price point would be more ideal, but I don't think the pricing is too far off.

My grandpa used to beat us with a cork handled fishing pole and it held up just fine. Durability shouldn't be an issue. :rofl:

That sounds like a fond memory of old grandpa !! :bigwhack:

I'm hoping to practice with it a lot over the winter and see if I can get it to form to my hand by summer. That's one of the great advantages to cork.

I'd buy one, but only if it wasn't so darned big. Too big for my taste I'm afraid.

They said they have a smaller model coming out in a few weeks. I planning on getting one of those too, to try out on a different putter.

Nice to see someone making new Cork putter grips. Woods Bros. Golf used to offer them on their putters back in the 80's as I recall, and then they came out with a whole new line in the mid to late 90's.. Called "Switch" putters. They had cork grips and mallet heads with graphics on the crown... The grips felt great, imparting a very soft feel to the putter (without being too "squishy" or torquey) and I think were fairly durable. I'm a big fisherman, so I'm interested in these myself. :)

Good luck to Salty!

And thanks for the find rlheiman!

Best,

-Dave Billings

Whit at Salty grips was great to deal with. I have a feeling these grips may catch on.

Agreed, and I'm excited to both try this one and the standard size when it comes out.

I was going to grab one, but then I heard about the smaller ones coming. So, I will wait. We went back and forth via e-mail and he was great. I really appreciated his time. Great people...

They aren't quite over-sized from what I've read, more midsized so I figured I'd give it a shot. Since its such a different feel and a different weight I figure I can try them on different stuff and see which I like more.
