I mentioned it at the end of the review but I'd like to just give another huge shout out and thank you to the MGS staff for the chance to review something, as well as my fellow reviewers and all of you following along! I'll be sure to keep you all posted with updates as more rounds get played. And if there are any more questions or tests that need to be addressed feel free to let me know! Thank you all again!! LV!! Great review, Leaky. I also play an MCC Plus midsize. Your comments about the Tour Star sizing were exactly the insight I sought, as I am extremely interested in replacing my gamers with the Star. How does the texture of the Tour Star compare to the MCC?

LeakyValve Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 @Prodigal Duffer I would compare the texture of the Tour Stars more along the lines of the current Tour Wrap offered from Golf Pride. with the MCCs our top hand was subject to a more corded feeling. And the bottom hand a bit more rubber. I think the bottom hand feeling is more along the lines of what you would get for the whole grip of a Tour Star. If you do consider the wrap style grips I would consider the Classic Wrap from Star Grips as it comes in midsize. And you can easily add a few wraps of tape underneath to get a midsize MCC + 4 feeling. The Tour Stars I have on are less tapered but currently have 4 full length wraps of tape to build them up to a midsize grip. as for the (for lack of better term “alignment”) aids on the MCCs. The beauty of the Star Grips is your adjust ability. I believe they are all moulded the same way, so the logo on the tops all match one another. And where the wrap starts to head down the grips is the same too. My point being that if you say put a grip on just to get it on and find yourself not liking how the wraps feel in your hand, you can quickly blow it off and rotate the grip a quarter turn either way and try again. mine are all set to have the star grips logo reading in the upright position when looking down the club. My hands, and more specifically my right thumb (being a lefty) fits perfectly on the 5th or 6th wrap. And this stays true for every grips through the iron set so I know I’m not choked down too much. As well as having the same feeling for each grip. yes it might be a bit tedious, but you can really get creative with the way you want your hands and fingers to feel locked in on the grip. I’ve tossed this in here showing the difference between a standard size (blue tour star) and midsize mcc4. The corded top half off the MCC is rough. The rubber bottom half is more aligned with how the Star Grips feel. Josh Parker, Shrek74, bama no 1 and 2 others 5 Quote "We're weekend golfers.

I found that when I put the rubber club grip on the shaft I would use that to make sure the grip was on all the way. Yes. You pushed it right up to the vice it looked like. As.example, I noticed when I regripped a club that while the old and new were the same length, the new grip went 1/2" further past the tape line I used.

LeakyValve Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 (edited) @Rob Person ah. I see. I think I put too much tape on the shaft. I should have left a half inch or so for the grip to actually be on the shaft. I’ve noticed with the Star Grips you can almost “stretch” them out a bit while putting them on. Like squeezing out the last bit of toothpaste out of the tube. And in doing so makes them fit a bit longer. i found I had to do this some times to feel like grips was completely on Edited April 25 by LeakyValve Rob Person, bama no 1 and sellemental 3 Quote "We're weekend golfers.

Shrek74 Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 For those that are using tape along with the blow-on method, what type of tape are you using? Masking or Painter's Tape? Or maybe a different tape?

LeakyValve Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 Same as everyone. 2 inch blue painters tape. I used the full length of the grip less 1 inch on the shaft and made sure to cut it at the end of the shaft. first time I did it I cut like a half inch past the end of the shaft and had issues blowing the grip on @Shrek74 Shrek74, Rob Person and bama no 1 3 Quote "We're weekend golfers.

I’ve been making a point to my clubs in peoples hands to get their thoughts on them and it’s been a good response as well.

sellemental Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 Some particularly outstanding final reviews ! Hats off to Leaky Valve and Breakfast Ball 15 for all of the interaction throughout these pages and really, really fantastic final reviews that summarize all of it very well. A few points that I would echo from their findings: 1. Different colors feel different !!! In my case, the red feels a good deal softer than the white. 2. Although installation and removal is easy, be sure to have them on all the way. I'd never done grips before, so it took me some trial and error to get "good at it" if you will, and you'll find some good tips among these pages. For me, I found I left several not quite on all the way, and found that the tip to "stretch them out all the way" when installing resolved the floppy end, firmed them up a bit, and lo and behold, they were the same size as other grips. 3. For better or worse, they do get dirty quickly, but clean up easily with a quick wipe down with water, and seem to feel tackier.

I found that when I put the rubber club grip on the shaft I would use that to make sure the grip was on all the way. For me tapping down doesn’t work as grip is pretty much welded to the shaft, plus if it did I’d be worried about movement during use.

LeakyValve Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 Play yesterday at a links style course. Maybe 15 degree Celsius weather. Gusting winds. Gloveless hand got a little chilly but never experienced any lost of tackiness or girl from the grips themselves. Had 1-2 stingers and they weren’t too bad at all.

EugeGall Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 Just wanted to add to my fellow testers, @BreakfastBall15, @LeakyValve and @Alf. S thanks for all your similar and contrasting insights and especially your final thoughts. For what is a simple, overlooked piece of kit, but the only component between us and failure or golfing immortality (ok yes I’m blowing this up a bit) I’ve had a blast (of air) with this review. Also to all my fellow Spies out there many thanks for all your questions and views on this topic it’s what makes it all worth doing The good part this could be the longest running review since given Star Grips 3 year warranty it has to last that long.

Yet it is our single connection point to the golf club and shaft. Star Grips is not as well-known as some of the big names but they have a long history and provide grips purpose-built for the air-compressor installation method. About Star Grips If you haven’t heard of Star Grips, this is what they have to say about their brand, history and product: “Founded in 2001, Star Grip has been manufacturing golf grips in the USA for over 20 years. Made from our proprietary StarTack EPDM compound, our grips are produced using a seamless injection molding process which results in unmatched quality, performance, and consistency with a weight tolerance of +/-1 gram. They are also unquestionably some of the longest-lasting grips in the industry. As such, we are proud to offer an unprecedented 3-year durability guarantee on every grip we make - whether purchased directly from us or from any of our dealers located around the world. If they become hard, slick, or crack within 3 years, just contact us, and we'll send you a free replacement!” Star Grips offers four different grips for full-swing clubs: The Sidewinder 350*, which is offered in eight different colors; the Classic Wrap and Tour Star+ 360* in four different colors, and the Smoother Wrap in black. As a bonus, Star Grips also offers a free installation gun when orders exceed $100. Please welcome and congratulate our testers! @BreakfastBall15 @LeakyValve @Alf. S @EugeGall Awesome. Can't wait to read about them! CONGRATS!!! EugeGall, bama no 1, LeakyValve and 1 other 4 Quote CREDMAN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
