Putter grip preference or fitted

[drscott266]

Question here, I recently had a putting lesson that addressed some laziness in my setup and my grip. Made a huge improvement in my putting, but also got me thinking. I was reminded to make sure to get the putter grip in my lifeline (duh), and it made wonder if a certain grip helps or hurts that for each player. I play midsize grips but find that super big putter grips don’t help me. Small ones I can seem to finagle wherever in my hand, but wonder if that isn’t less consistent. Does this make sense… do putter grips need to be fit or do you make what you like work?  Kinda dovetails into when you pick up a putter at the store, the grip is one of the first things you notice that you like or don’t.

It's what's comfortable and what you're looking for. Myself I always used grip on the bigger side but lately have gone down to a more midsize grip or just under that as my putting technique and feel changes.

 

Give someone a jumbo grip and a small grip and they absolutely love the jumbo and feel like they can make every putt, someone else hates the jumbo but loves the small grip for the same reasons.

Preference 1000%
 

if it doesn’t fit your hands and make you feel like your hands and locked in a good position you won’t putt worth a damn.

100% what feels good to you and what makes you keep the face square.  I am right handed and putt left hand low.  I prefer a pistol grip because that angle works wonders for my top hand.  I use a superstroke zynergy pistol grip that has a ridge down the back so it makes for a good reference point for my left hand.  The Lampkin sinkfit pistol grip is great also.  I would say just try out as many as you can and give them a go.
