P2 Putter Grip-Anyone using one?? (merged)

[ruffellprefley]

had mine installed last night. so far so good! considering getting more for my other putters. just wish they came in more color options, but perhaps in the future.

I was struggling with my putting and installed a P2. Wow did I start making some putts. Makes my hands feel natural with my Ping Redwood Anser.

Any other tour pros use this?

[gpleonard]

I played it for several rounds. Just could not get really comfortable with it.. Well constructed and all. Just not a fit for me. And I was really wanting to like the grip.. I gave it every chance. Maybe if I get the smaller grip it might work. For now I have gone back to my SuperStroke mid slim 2.0. It is in my comfort range. And I like it.

What model/size P2 did you get?

[LoveG]

i've been thinking of trying one of these....but i stumbled upon another brand called Forward Golf that seems very similar. Has anyone tried these both and can compare/contrast?

I think one of the more overlooked aspects of the P2 grips are the different shape options as well. Everyone has different size hands and grips the putter differently. I have a VERY strange putting grip and I've never found a grip more comfortable in my hands than the aware tour. That was the original selling point for me. I hope they continue to grow their distribution so people can get them in their hands and find a good fit like I did.

just ordered a P2 Tour react for an Odyssey Oworks 3T….looking forward to trying this grip out.

Has anyone compared these grips to the grips from Forward Golf? Essentially they are the exact same idea and would love to hear some reviews

Every once in a while when this thread gets bumped, I passionately wonder every time why there isn’t more discussion and people using these grips on this forum. It’s a shame honestly.

[gdb99]

I have one coming in. I just don’t know what putter to put it on!

[Mcgeeno]

Love mine.

 

I ordered my first one so long ago I literally emailed the guy Enda O'Laughlin (I think thats his name?) who invented it and we exchanged paypal info hahaha.

 

I like to consider myself an early adopter.

 

I've got a classic on a Slighter Edmonds now and I'm a big fan.

Having tried the Forward grip & found it to be just too large and lacking all feel, I'm hesitant to pull the trigger on the P2 since it seems to be just another foam filled grip that feels dead to me. I liked the wrist position the Forward grip design introduced, so it should be similar with the P2, but if it lacks feel I'll pass. Similarly, although I've liked the shapes & sizes of the SuperStrokes, I have no sense of touch & feel since the material they use absorbs far too much vibration. Maybe it's because I grew up playing the thin Ping Man, or similar Golf Pride and prefer plain old firm rubber...everything else I've tried simply doesn't resonate enough upon impact. I currently game the Pistolero since I like the wider paddle at the top, but the material is once again a simple rubber makeup, so the shape of the Tour Aware has me interested & wishing they released a rubber version. Can anyone comment on how the feel compares to SuperStroke or other foam filled grip styles?

I have the Forward standard pistol grip on a Rife blade putter and it is small and fairly firm. It might suit you. I also have a P2 React Tour on my Cleveland Huntington Beach #6. I'm putting well with that combination and really like the P2 grip. The P2 doesn't lack feel for me, but as with any grip, YMMV.

I just ordered 2 P2 grips to try, will put on with air just in case I don’t like. Ordered the Aware and the React Tour to see which shape I like better. Anyone try these grips? What can I expect?

You can expect to make more putts.

Which P2 do you use? What do you like about them? I am coming from a SuperStroke 2.0 Pistol which I like but wanted to try something different

I have an Aware Tour grip. When I first tried one at PGA show 2017 I was immediately a fan of the shape because I have a very strange putting grip and it fit perfectly into my hands. I regretfully didn’t buy one until August but since then I’ve also noticed that the “tech” in these grips works (at least for me) and I notice a much smoother stroke and a completely natural release with no conscious effort due to the orientation of the shaft in the grip.

Tried the Aware tour and the React tour today. Liked both but there is something about the Aware tour that fits my hands and gives me confidence. Granted I was just putting inside but think I am going to start the year with the Aware on my putter

Great to hear! Hope you love it

I liked the position the P2 putt my hands, however the grip was way to big. I had the classic. I may try another one at sometime if I can try it before I have to order it. There is not very many retailers in my area carrying them

I think all Club Champion locations just got added as dealers. If that helps.

I felt the classic was way to big too. I went to the aware and I love it. My favorite putter grip ever.

Played my first round with the Aware Tour and loved it. Had 28 putts and everything started on my line.

anyone install an aware tour with air instead of solvent? I wanna try it out on a couple different putters but don’t want to have to buy multiple

I did when I was trying them out. I didn’t have a problem but was very careful. I use air for everything but my putters. For me I feel putter grips don’t stay as secure as full swing grips. I am sure it’s the shaft diameter.

interesting since there’s so much less torque on the grips during a putting stroke. could a couple layers of tape remedy this?

Just thought I'd try and get some opinion on here regarding the P2 putter grip.

 

I'm a scratch golfer but putting tends to be the weakest part of my game (averaging 33-34 putts per round).

 

I typically have a pronounced arc to my putting stroke and tend to play a heel shafted putter (Scotty Golo 3 at the moment). I understand the benefit of the P2 in that it raises the hands into a more locked position and prevents rotation. With that in mind would the grip suite a putting stroke with an arc?

 

Also I use a claw style grip on the putter, of the current tour models (I like a heavy putter head so I would want the lighter grip) which one do you think would suite that grip style?

 

Thanks.

I changed to the P2 Aware a couple of months ago. Playing off a +1 handicap and wanted to sharpen up on the putting, rest of the game is pretty maxed out so improved putting was where room for improvement lay. P2 grip made a big difference; distance control and hitting my lines became so much better. Wish I had changed a long time ago!
