Lamkin Deep Etched Pistol Cord


fjk

Recommended Posts

Can we make some noise to get this grip released? It’s so strange how much it popped up on tour pictures but hasn’t come out. 
 

can’t even find them overpriced on eBay. 
 

the commonly found paddle version is just a bit too thick. 
 

a skinnier, corded pistol grip is hard to find. Pp58 cord gets slick too fast. Lamkin’s deep etched material and pattern and cord feel great… just wish the shape was a little smaller.

are there any decently textured actual "pistol" grips out there? As was mentioned the Ping version gets slick fast. All of the Scotty's are $40+...why is this so hard?

 

Golf Pride Pro Only Red Star corded is a great option for textured pistol grip. And sugarloaf social club make a pistol cord putter grip. Not sure how textured that one is, though.

I do have the pro only red star cord. Might be the only one that comes close on the market. 
 

but I wish it were a little rougher/more cord or rubber-ier. The lamkin deep etched paddle cord definitely has better tactile feedback for me.

I missed that the red star was a pistol grip. Any chance if you know if the non-chord version is the slick ping-like rubber?

 

I also just found that Lamkin makes a sinkfit skinny pistol grip. Could be interesting and grippy!

The regular rubber version is indeed the slick Ping-like rubber. Within a few months it loses its initial tackiness, just like a Pingman.

 

The Lamkin Sinkfit Pistol is a really interesting material. It's kind of like a bike tire tread. Very grippy in my hands, and in fact maybe too grippy for my tastes. It could be worth a shot. One weird thing I experienced with it is that it was impossible to blow on with an air compressor - the grip just bubbled up and wouldn't budge.

 

I'm all in on the Golf Pride Red Star Cord. It's kind of cottony cord, like the Golf Pride Tour Velvet Cord swing grips, but a little harsher. I love the texture, especially after you wear it in a bit.

Yep. And others. It would be very popular…

 

the deep V lamkin grip feels nice but the color/graphics are off putting and the surface isn’t as nice as the deep etched cord. 

Maybe take a look at Odyssey’s White Hot Pro grip ($10 and exclusive to golfgalaxy afaik). 68grams. Really nice tacky rubber that isn’t too firm. Not actually corded, but the etching makes it very grippy. Pretty similar to the deep-V profile, but a slightly less pronounced “V”. It’s like a middle ground between the deep-v and the deep-etched.

Have the sugarloaf grip coming tomorrow. 
 

Picked up these old Royal grips on eBay. 
 

Gotta say they’re quite perfectly fitting the bill. Front surface is flat and angular edges, great rough cord, nice slim size. Why did these get discontinued!

 

and I’m curious how sugarloaf can make small batches of their cord putter grip and not have it be outsourced from a larger company that has a similar model. It doesn’t exist! Pro only red star cord is the only one that comes close. 
 

this grip weighs 65g if you ever pick one up.
