Golf Pride MCC Plus4 Align MultiCompound Golf Grip

Product Information

First things first, you need to have an idea of how big your hands are and do some research on what the ideal corresponding grip size would be. Additionally, lots of grips come in different shapes ,too, so get your hands on some different models and see how they feel, especially with some of the newer and more unique putter grips out there. There’s no missing the raised ridge on the Golf Pride MCC Plus4 ALIGN. Before it’s installed, however, the grip feels round and the channel texture inconsequential. This is important to recognize if you’re choosing grips laid out on a table at your fitter or loose in bins at a store. Raised by installation on the shaft, the ridge is best described as a channel with edges, not a rounded hump. The micro diamond pattern of the red strip has an aggressive texture, and the material is noticeably firmer than the rest of the grip. Performance One issue I encountered was with needing to open the clubface to hit a hard cut around a tree. The ridge fell in an awkward spot on my fingers which compelled me to tweak the grip rotation ever so slightly. Although that occurrence was a negative for me, I could foresee using the ridge to establish alternate hand positions or grip rotations for routine shot shaping. Finally, grips can be expensive so we would recommend being aware of how much you want to spend here. We would always suggest investing a bit more on a grip that is durable and will last a long time rather than going for a cheaper option and having to re-grip the clubs again sooner than you should have to.

Have always gone with the classic MC grip. Thanks.

Feel is arguably the most important factor when it comes to grips because your hands will be touching the grip throughout the golf swing. Therefore think about what you like your grips to feel like. Do you like the feel of corded grips or perhaps you want a softer feeling model, a more velvet kind of touch on your hands? Or, do you want the best of both of those worlds? Getting your hands on some grips to see how they feel is the best way of deciphering which model to go for and which will be the best model for your hands.You can do that by heading down to your local pro shop, where you'll be able to hold and sample a variety of different club grips. Yes, there is nothing wrong with fitting your own golf grips as this can save you a lot of money. But getting golf clubs gripped professionally is more advisable.

While I don’t have data to prove any of those claims, there are plenty of tour pros and thousands of skilled amateur players who swear by it, myself included. Looking at the new GP align grips for my driver. For those of you who installed these in a driver, does the raised surface area for hand placement become rotated and therefore misaligned if u rotate the hosel on an adjustable driver? I haven't seen them in person yet. The align feature wasn't as pronounced as I'd imagined, which in hindsight is a blessing. It fits the contours of the creases of your fingers, so you just have to find the feel of your normal grip and all you do is replicate that on your next swing and voila, consistent grip application. It's almost an unoticeable ridge, but you will notice once your hands are in the same position.

Flip the grip over and the red, raised guide is prominent and distinctive. The Golf Pride MCC Plus4 Align is only available in grey, which really looks sharp in combination with the red. If you are one of those golfers who prefers the ‘GOLF PRIDE’ logo installed facing down, that won’t be an option with the ALIGN.

Introduction Very good grip sits very good in the hands comfortable too, not so much of a ridge as a thought which was good. recommendation for players all levels When it comes to golf grips, while there are a number of quality companies in the category, it’s Golf Pride that is the industry leader. The North Carolina-based company can boast that more than 80 percent of PGA Tour play with its products, in addition to being the preferred grip for more than 65 percent of recreational players. One of the reasons that Golf Pride has been so successful is the number of grips it has to offer to meet the both the feel and performance needs of any golfer.

This is a splendid grip that helps you know your hands are in the correct place. They require close attention when fitting but worth the effort.

ALIGN Technology now available in this hybrid grip combines all-weather performance with consistent hand placement. The cotton cord and soft rubber material combination is comfortable to grip in all conditions, but it’s in wet weather that its performance benefits come into their own. You’ll definitely find it easier to maintain good grip in the rain. One final point for the swing weight obsessed: the midsize version of the MCC Plus 4 is substantially heavier (66 grams) than the standard (52 grams).

Linking with the above point, be aware of how different some grips are and how they deal with sweat and wet weather. This is because some models, like the Golf Pride MCC for example, cope with water very well because they've been designed to, whereas some other models haven't. Also, it is worth considering how often you play in the rain because if you live in the USA and never play in the rain, there is no need to be concerned with this factor. Useful for golfers just starting, it’s also a great confidence booster for established players, taking uncertainty out of the game. These grips also have the benefit of consistency. Golfers are obsessed with the word consistency, and it’s one of the biggest reasons that I’m a convert to the new Golf Pride MCC Plus 4 grip. I’ve played Multi Compound grips for years, and I’ve always built up the lower half. The difficulty and hassle is in doing this precisely: making the half pieces of the tape exactly the same size and placing them perfectly on top of one another. That’s now a thing of the past. With one full-length strip of grip tape, I can have grips that are nearly taper-free and exactly the same from club to club.
