Lamkin Flat Cat Putter Grip


matchplay66

Recommended Posts

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?

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.

It seems that it works best for the claw when installed flat. Like J Rose.

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.

I've not seen one in-person, so I only know what I've read or seen in videos. Curious of how it feels.

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.

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.

I just added a Flat Cat Solution to my spider. Haven't had a chance to take it to the course or putting green yet, but putting on my little green in my basement feels really nice. Gives the head a bit heavier feel and feels even more stable than the spider normally does

The Solution ones are the only grips that are pricer. Their regular grips are just as much as SuperStrokes. I just picked up their new Flat Cat Tak for $24

Today's a pretty decent day to give one a try. Throw one into your cart (https://www.ebay.com/itm/Flat-Cat-STANDARD-Putter-Grip-68g-FREE-SHIPPING/232701015372?epid=10002616813&hash=item362e0fb54c:g:EbMAAOSwSzRZOaPx), add something else to get the total up to $25, and then use eBay's 15% off coupon code. Brings the price of the grip down to $17, which isn't bad.

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.

I had their standard version, the original one at the end of last season. I installed it on a putter that wasn't in my bag, just to test it out in case I didn't like it. I ended up giving it to another member on here to test.

This is their new FlatCat Tak. Pretty much same as the original, just a tackier grip and black.

Let us know your thoughts. I lived the regular flat cat and currently have the solution on my spider but haven't got a chance to roll it on course yet.

I used the flat cat solution all last year, never could come to terms with the weight. Used it on a ping sigma g Kinloch,found it worked best for me left hand low. I really wanted to like it, but back to a standard grip this year and have never putted better. Sure it had nothing to do with practice and an Er2...

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.
