matchplay66 Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 I tried out the Lamkin Flat Cat putter grip recently and was really impressed. I did seem to loose a little bit of distance control but it felt as if I could keep it square easier. Has anyone else tried the grip out? What did you think?

JTexGolfer Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 I tried one on a SeeMore putter and was torn on whether I liked it or not. It also seemed to wear very quickly given its cost. I think it is a great grip for a claw or pencil style putter if you turn the grip sideways ala Rose. I am absolutely loving my Garsen MAX though so wont be trying one of these again any time soon. 400 Driver (8*) UST ATTAS Punch 6S F6 Baffler (16*) Matrix Red Tie 65Q4 816 H1 Hybrid (21*,23*) Diamana S+ Blue 82 HY Z765 (5-PW) +2* Aerotech Steelfiber i110cw Vokey SM5 50.08F 54.10M Aerotech Steelfiber i110cw PM Grind 60* Dynamic Gold S400 TR 1966 Anser 2 Z Star ball Pioneer Cart Bag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

e11iot15 Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 I have used one for the past two golf seasons. The distance control will come with some practice. The consistency on short putts is what drew me to try it. I would recommend it to anyone. The cost is well worth it.

Berg Ryman Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 As someone who enjoys the idea of the palm leading the putter face, I do have a Flat Cat on my putter right now. It's the Fat, so like a SS 4.0 if they made one. Very confident with it and I enjoy it a lot. The question will be if I drop it for the Solution if that cuts price anytime soon or keep rolling with ol' Fat for a while. Also, mine is not installed Rose style and I use a traditional grip, if that matters to anyone.

BigtazzGolf Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 Still working with it, but my first few rounds have had good results. I'm gonna keep it in play for now and see how it handles the quicker summer greens. I may regrip with a larger style than the one I currently have by then though and look at getting the weight added. The one I have now doesn't have any extra weight.

casey_0507 Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 I just added a Flat Cat Solution to my spider.

donbrenstage Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 The versatility of it is amazing. Turn the flat side up and it is perfect for the claw grip or the 2 thumb prayer. Turn it so the skinny side is up and it is perfect to feel the face is square with a blade. It is far softer than it looks, but if you wearing it out you need to work on your grip because Justin Rose is still using his very 1st one and so am I.

Hopewell Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 I've been having relatively intense lessons this year, including a few on the greens. Having had the concept of using palm orientation to 'know' face orientation led me to this grip. That and I'm a bit of a Rose fangirl.. Needless to say I've moved to a prayer grip and this compliments my setup extremely well. I moved from a Superstroke 2.0 to the Flatcat FAT as it was recommended that I get something more girthy. A few putting green sessions and 18 holes later the putter definitely feels like a bit of a wand now. FYI I'm gaming a Studio Select Newport 2.6, can supply pics if anyone is interested. My verdict? If you're interested in the larger grip but not SS, something with zero taper or like the concept of using palm/ for orientation.. give this a bash.
