Golf Pride MCC Plus4 Align MultiCompound Golf Grip

Product Information

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. With a raised channel along the bottom of a tour-proven grip, the Golf Pride MCC Plus4 ALIGN gives players a reference ridge to aid repeatable, consistent hand position. Introduction Larger lower hand: Tour-inspired reduced taper profile in lower hand promotes lighter grip pressure and increased power

The MCC is an innovative hybrid grip combining rubber and cord for all-weather performance. Plus 4 means is larger on the lower hand and it simulates the addition of four extra layers of tape.From the top side, the Golf Pride MCC Plus4 ALIGN looks identical to the MCC Plus4 except for red fill, red end cap, and of course the addition of the ‘ALIGN’ logo. 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. Feel

My usual grip installation is “3 + 2”, which means I have three wraps of tape running the full length of the grip, and two additional wraps under my bottom hand. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t mind doing it, but that’s a LOT of effort when re-gripping a full set of clubs! With the extra four wraps built into the Golf Pride Plus4 models, that saves me a TON of time. There is much less manual tape work and I’m building my clubs much faster. 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. That way, you can ensure that your clubs are properly gripped by a club, or shop professional, who can ensure they are securely fastened to your clubs. Ultimately, this process can cost a little more but can ensure the longevity of your golf clubs. Do PGA Tour Pros use Golf Pride Grips? If you read the in-depth What’s In the Bag articles about PGA Tour pros, you will notice that many of them prefer extra wraps of grip tape under their lower hand. Whether this is simply a preference or a necessary defense against hooking the ball, it’s a trend that you can also see among better amateur players.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. The resulting reduced taper encourages lighter grip pressure, promoting less tension in the hands and creating more fluidity and power through the swing. 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. 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.

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 exact model, club head number, and desired final playing length is required for butt trimming to be possible. This grip is fantastic. If you're looking for a great way to maintain consistent grip, with a small margin of error, then I definitely recommended this one. 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. The Golf Pride MCC Plus 4 grip is indistinguishable from the classic New Decade Multi Compound, with the exception of the white outline around the Golf Pride logo. The standard sized MCC Plus 4 is available in grey, red, and blue. At least for this year, the midsize grip is available only in grey.These may not be the cheapest grips you can buy, but you must remember your hands can only be as good as the grips. These alignment grips feel great, work wet and dry and give you a feel of solidness. I can't speak of the longevity yet - another key factor if you are buying premium grips but I have high hopes. Shafts are tip trimmed (if required) to manufacturer’s recommendations. For steel shafts, we abrade the tips. For graphite shafts, we remove the polyurethane coating. After tip trimming and prepping, the shafts are butt trimmed to the desired final playing length*. Club Playing Length Also, how do they feel and how durable are they otherwise? 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. These grips are game changing!! They feel great, the corded upper half gives a non slip feeling whilst the lower wider half feels comfortable. The rig spine is subtle enough not to get in the way but enough to feel the line even under your glove. This allows for consistent hand placement giving extra confidence that your cub face is square. Totally recommend these grips to any player & regardless of your handicap they are sure to impress you.
