Macro Golf PowerStroke Putter Grip $24.95 Macro Golf PowerStroke Putter Grip You’ve probably never seen anything like the MACRO Grip. MACRO’s patented grip design, set-up and unique putting system consistently prevents wrist breakdown and assures a long, flat, on-line approach of the putter head to and through the ball. Re-grip your putter with Macro the same way as you would with any other grip. All Macro Grips install easily on standard putter shafts with the usual application of double-sided tape and solvent. Once Macro is seated on the shaft, and before the adhesive tape begins to dry, adjust Macro until: 1 The greater curvature of the grip is facing forward in the direction of the putt 2 The shorter line of the cross mark on the grip top is parallel to the plane of the putter face Key design elements that promote these stroke principals while conforming to the USGA’s Rules of Golf are: Oversized reducing-oval shape grip Uniform forward shaft offset Grip alignment cross-mark Grip Feel, the transmission of vibrations from the club face to the hands is an important factor in guiding putts to their target. A club with good feel allows the golfer to know when he or she has struck the ball on the sweet spot of the face, whether the face was square at impact, and the strength of the impact. MACRO is not a standard oversized grip. The density of the compounds used to build the grip was specifically selected to enhance feel and is not the same as that used in conventional grips. An important balance was achieved between the surface of the grip and its underlying structure. The surface is soft enough to enhance comfort and prevent slippage. On the other hand, the substructure component of the grip is dense enough to transmit exceptional feel from the club face to the hands. Sizes Large Standard rubber composite in Black, 16 inches long with Topnotch, the patented grip-top cross-mark alignment feature, forward shaft offset and reducing-oval diameter of 1.7 inches. Recommended for a split-grip set-up and to combat chronic wrist-break? and the yips?. Medium Standard rubber composite in Black, 14 inches long with Topnotch, the patented grip-top alignment feature, forward shaft offset and reducing-oval diameter of 1.5 inches. Recommended for conventional, ten fingered semi-conventional , full-split, and claw grip? hand placements

SuperStroke Putting System $39.95 SuperStroke Putting System The most common cause of missed putts is rolling the wrists. Doing so causes players of all skill levels to pull or push their putts. A twelve foot putt will be missed if the putter face is off square by as little as 1.7 degrees! Traditional narrow putter grips encourage increased hand pressure and promote rolling the wrists. The longer the putt, the harder we squeeze. The harder we squeeze, the more we roll the wrists. Super Stroke fills the hands and dramatically reduces grip pressure which leads to a smoother stroke. Super Strokes patented non taper design allows for finger tip placement on opposing sides of the shaft. This feature keeps the putter face square on contact and dramatically improves feel for distance as well. KJ Choi has used the SuperStroke Putter Grip in victories on the PGA Tour in 2007 & won the 2008 Sony Open in Hawaii. Features Oversized grip reduces hand pressure and fights the yips Wrist action eliminated, promoting a smooth arm-and-shoulder motion Unique flat-side design offers three positions tailored to your stroke Fingertip grip option for enhanced feel Height adjustability Dimpled surface keeps hands from slipping even in the wettest conditions FAQ’s Q: How does it work? A: Super Stroke can be easily installed on any putter in just 10 mintes, after removing the old grip. One of the other benefits is that SuperStroke is adjustable on the shaft for height. Spacers are provided to allow the grip to be raised in quarter-inch increments, up to five inches. This allows you to use any putter and modify it exactly to accommodate your height. Q: How big is it? A: The Super Stroke grip is 1.67 inches in diameter. Q: Does It conform with USGA rules? A: Yes it conforms with USGA rules. The SuperStroke Putting System is not a training aid. It is intended for regular golf play and conforms to the rules of the USGA. Q: Can the SuperStroke Putting System be used on any club? A:  The SuperStroke Putting System can be installed on any standard shaft putter. Q: Does the SuperStroke grip fit over my existing grip and can I remove it once it’s installed? A: No, your existing putter grip must first be removed before you can install the SuperStroke Putting System.  And yes, you can remove it.   All you h

2Thumb Rotate Putter Grip $19.95 2Thumb Grip 2Thumb Rotate Putter Grip New for 2011, the innovative 2Thumb Rotate mid size putter grip is based on the same design of the other grips in the 2Thumb series but is now slightly smaller in diameter allowing it to be fitted in a choice of two ways – the 2Thumbs side- by-side hold, or the grip can be rotated and fitted at a 90 degree angle to the putter face to accommodate the standard putting hold. This new model will appeal not only to the many thousands of 2Thumb users, but also offers a choice to players using the standard grip hold, including ladies, juniors and the smaller handed golfer. The 2Thumb Rotate is an exciting addition to the well established and successful 2Thumb putter grip range which now offers a choice of putter grips to suit all players with serious ambition to lower their scores.? Testimonials : 2Thumb Rotate Putter Grip I am writing to give you a little testimonial for your 2-Thumb putter grip. I always had this silky smooth, totally trustable putting stroke for 45 years when I was a 1 handicap. That was until about 12 years ago at which time I developed the yips. It got worse and worse asd I tried every possible gripputter I could find. I tried belly putters, chin putters, left hand low, left hand putting, thumb-to-thumb grips with a regular putter, blade putters, mallet putters .. do I need to go on. I would routinely hit 12 or 14 greens a round and have about 34 to 36 putts. I have 3 putted from as little as 10 feet and would often have at least one four putt greens per round. I lost my joy of playing golf.? My wife and I purchased the 2Thumb grips about 3 weeks ago, and it has been nothing but phenomenal. My putting average is now about 30 putts a round, and I have had very few three putts. I have two-putted four times from well over 80 feet, and have made a ton of 3 to 8 footers that used t obe a nightware. I now TRUST my putting again, and am really enjoying the great game for the first time in many years.? Thank you. Thank you. Thank you, Your grip has made golf fun again.? SG ?- ? USA Two Ball 2 Thumb – the perfect partners At first many doubted my sanity putting the large double sized grip on my Odyssey 2 ball putter, as I have been a decent club handicap putter averaging 3233 putts per round. My problem was I could be streaky. This was due to my habit of breaking my wrists through the putting stroke. The 2Thumb has sorted this. Over the past 6 months I have a far more solid stroke and am now holing consistently from 8-15 ft and pretty deadly from inside 6ft. I would recommend this grip to anyone as without doubt it makes the right hand far more passive in the stroke and encourages the pendulum motion I never before could master. Thanks 2Thumb!!!

Bob Burns Roll In Putter $125.95 Bob Burns Roll In Putter With the Roll-In Putters, we present a line of putters with a contemporary design and a revolutionary technology. The technology embodied in these putters – certainly its most advanced and elaborate elements – is probably best illustrated by simply looking at a picture of the putter. With its 345 gram, computer milled, aluminum head and extended mallet shape, it features not only a T-shaped sightline, but a lightweight material that effectively transfers energy to the ball at a consistent rate. In its standard configuration, it lifts the ball very slightly at impact to create an immediate end-to-end roll, as well as the outstanding feel that is necessary to control your distance. Most significantly, the Roll-In Putter features seven weight portals and adjustable screws of varying masses that you may use to customize your putting game. These adjustable weight screws serve four functions. They offer a basic three-point stability system, with a dense tungsten screw in both the heel and toe, and two back weights equidistant from the center line; the result is an enlarged sweet spot. The fully weighted clubhead maximizes the moment of inertia MOI . But you may also adjust the weights of the clubhead o compensate for the speed of the greens that you are playing on. If you tend to push or pull your putts, you can also bias the weight towards the heel or the toe to correct your problem. The special design of this putter, with its seven weight portals allows an accomplished player to move the center of gravity anywhere that they may want to. Having the center of gravity towards the back of the club reduces backspin as well as eliminates unwanted skidding. Beyond the standard weight screws, there are other screws readily available – from 2 to 10 grams each. Putting conditions are never the same, and you need a putter that can compensate for those changes. The Roll-In Putter was built to do just that. A standard option for the Roll-In Putter is a proprietary, oversized BFG Big Fat Grip , the unique shape of which is twice as wide as it is thick, while still maintaining its paddle shape. This super jumbo putter grip weighs 205 grams. The size is more than 3X the weight, and approximately 200% larger, than conventional putter grips. The science behind the grip is simple. The additional weight of the putter grip moves the balance or pivot point towards the center of the shaft, which enhances the ideal pendulum swing, while keeping the hands quiet through impact. With Roll-In technology and a larger grip, less grip pressure yields a smooth, consistent tempo. By taking the hands from the equation, we eliminate the yips and dreaded three putts. In the end, you will notice distance control, a true roll, and great confidence.

Putting Yips – How to Get Rid of Them !

Temperatures are dropping during this time of year all over the country. Luckily in the southern states, we can still play golf. However, this means playing a shots from a tight lie or a thin lie (little grass) which can be very difficult without the correct club in your hand. Tending to play on a tight or a thin lie from around the green this time of year, presents plenty of physical and mental issues for us to fight through. A lack of confidence is typically the reason why golfers get “the yips” while putting. This first putting drill can be done at the golf course, home or at the office. We will start without a golf ball. Begin by simply making some putting strokes. Lighten your putting grip pressure until you can feel the weight of the putter head back and through. On each stroke, hold your finish position for a count of three seconds. If at the course, make some strokes with your eyes closed with no target. This will allow you to feel your putting stroke.

Overhaul

As you have practiced for X amount of years with the putting grip you have, it just may be the time to overhaul your putting grip. Since your brain is currently programmed to “yip” using your current putting grip, change your putting grip. These days there are no rules on putting grips. You can go from the over-lap to the ten-finger to the claw grip. By radically changing your putting grip, your brain will need to reprogram all of its circuits and will start with a clean slate.

Get a pre-shot routine

Routines are used in other sports so the players can relax themselves. Batters have routines as they step into the batter box, basketball players have routines at the free throw line to relax themselves. Develop a pre-shot routine the next time you are on the putting green.

Your pre-shot routine can begin with something as easy as lifting your right thumb off of the putter grip and then place the thumb back on the grip. Your pre-shot routine should also include the number of times you look at the putting cup. On paper, your routine may look like this: thumb up, thumb down, look at hole, look at ball, putt. As you use this routine, you will gain a rhythm. This rhythm will flow over into your putting stroke.

Go with your gut

Sergio Garcia has made the change and many others have beaten the yips with using a belly putter. A belly putter will create a true pendulum putting stroke by eliminating the small muscles in your hands from the motion. This lack of hand motion will create consistency for your putting stroke. To use a belly putter, anchor the putter to a point on your midsection or “belly.” Take your set-up and make your regular putting stroke as you would with a .standard. length putter. When you finish your stroke, hold your finish until you can count slowly to three.

Now you can go to the putting green and putt your way to lower scores. See you on the practice putting green.

Has anyone quit golf because of the yips or shanks?

I was an 11 handicap and shot 74 six months ago. I can’t break 100 today because of the shanks. Please don’t respond with advice. I just want to hear stories. I’ve tried everything from lessons, using a 2 x 4 wood block, feet together drill, weight-on-heels drill, setting up at toe drill…
No advice please. I want to hear stories about quitting golf.

I played for 15 years without any lessons or fundamentals. I started out decent and got to a point where I could shoot around 90. Towards the end of those 15 years I got worse and could barely break 100. Worst part about it was that I had zero confidence and forgot how to swing and play the game entirely. Only thing I could do was putt. I hit a point where I either had to get professional help or quit. I took a break and deicided I’d give it another whirl. So, I went and got lessons and pracitced hard for the next year and started playing the best golf I’ve ever played. Those agonizing memories are a thing of the past. Last 4 years I’ve enjoyed playing golf. Wish I did what I did 20 years ago.

I still have the occasional melt down and will shoot in the 100s, but more often then not I’m breaking 90. When things go bad I shrug it off and a few cold ones and try again another day.

If you were once an 11 hdcp, you have the skills, Maybe take a break for a couple of weeks.

Bottom line is that golf is a great game and it would be a huge void to fill if I quit playing.

Ask yourself what you’d do instead of playing golf. If you have a better answer then go for it. Otherwise, keep at it.
