As a serial tinker-er of my golf equipment and grips, these have been fantastic. I prefer the tacky feel vs the GP tour velvets I've used historically, and the ability to easily blow these on / off to adjust build up tape is terrific.
I purchased 12 of these after testing a sample grip. I've got another sample of the new STX grip on the way - love that they allow you to order samples of a few different grips. Great company and great products!
For the past few years I've been playing Pure DTX grips. After Pure went out of business, I was bummed my favorite grip was gone. StarGrips to the rescue! After seeing an "Easter egg" post of the new STX grips on StarGrips Instagram, I fired off an email to see when they would be released. Hayden at StarGrips hooked me up with a few sample grips to test out. I ended up buying a full set! Awesome grips! 100 times better than my old Pure DTX. The new STX grips have nice reduced taper (which I like). Great feel | great look! Highly recommended!
I have used these grips for over a year, and they feel good.
Moreover, they don't wear out. Great job.
First time buyer of Star grips. Been playing golf prides for the longest time, primarily the MCC and I can honestly say that these feel so much better. Great tackiness, 360 design, 3 year guarantee and made in the USA, can’t believe I haven’t heard about this brand until recently. More people need to try these out, especially for what you’re getting from a price standpoint as compared to most other grips. Under $9 and they run discounts throughout the year, no brainer as far as I’m concerned for anyone looking for a new grip. Looking forward to putting these grips through the paces and testing out the overall durability as compared to the MCC, which is a great grip.
Excellent products that seem to last forever. Good group of guys working for Star Grips as well.
I recently purchased a couple of these to try on my wedges and loved them. Now I have them on every club, easy to install, feels similar to your velvets and they’re made is the USA. These are hard to beat. Midsize feels great I wear and XL glove for reference.
I purchased these undersized grips for my wife's clubs. She has played with them 3 or 4 times now and really likes the feel of them. Installation was awesome with the air gun. Quick and easy plus ready to play as soon as you are done.
The Midsize Classic Wrap is a very nice grip...tacky with a great look. I installed the grips over existing shaft tape, just spraying the grip opening with a little solvent and shaking off any excess. Using the Star Grip air installation tool that came free with the grip set, I had the new grips on, repositioning a couple along the way, in about a hour. Most of that time was spent carefully removing the old grips, not installing the new grips.
I've played three rounds with the new grips installed. I find that I grip the clubs much easier and feel mis-hits much less at my hands and wrists. I'm so glad I gave Star Grip grips a try. I think I'm a Star Grip convert. The Classic Wrap and Sidewinder grips are great and the installation tool and process are the best!
This is the best thing since sliced bread!!! BUT it lasted through one set of club handles before the plastic cup and plastic tip broke off so buy extra tips your going to need them
Things that could be better a metal cup and tip, or different size tips for oversized grips or offer as a upgrade to a metal cup
Bought an air nozzle to mate with an air gun I had around. Sure enough it fits fine! I've used the nozzle to re-grip one set of clubs and it works great with Star Grip grips. I also used the nozzle to loosen a couple grips (other mfg) on those same clubs before installing new Star Grip grips. As is mentioned on the website, this did not go well as both ballooned in one area and I immediately stopped the airflow. (I was wearing safety glasses.)
I really like the Start Grip grips and the installation method. I've now installed both Sidewinder and Classic Wrap grips, on a clean shaft and right over old tape. All I've noticed is that when installing over old tape, the air under the grip (and in the shaft?) takes longer to bleed off. So, when installing over old tape I found that I need to hold the grip in place for just a few seconds to let the air bleed off.
I'm really glad I got the air tool and the Star Grip grips. All are great!
Good to find an American made high quality grip! Great feel, can't wait to try them out as soon as the weather breaks!
Compressor works just fine for the job needed. Grip cup on air gun is plastic, wish it was aluminum for longer durability (will probably make my own). All in all it is well worth the investment.
I'm leaving a 5 star review even though for me, this grip didn't work out (sometimes it happens). Here's why:
- Unbelievable customer service. RJ was fantastic and took the time to try and help me. It's so refreshing when customer service is like this!
- These grips are super high quality, just happen to not work for me when my hands start to get sweaty. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone else!
If you are a fan of the Golf Pride Tour Wrap grips you have to give these a try. Same great feel out of the box but they last WAY longer. I'll never go back to any other grip.
Best grips around and Customerservice in the business!
With a glitch with USPS Star grips made sure the I had the grips in time for my friends weekend round!
I use Star grips and a friend saw them and wanted a set for his irons, he loves them also!
Should have purchased this years ago. Been using the simple rubber vice clamp and always worried about ruining a shaft or the clamp releasing from the vice. The speed clamp takes all the worries out of the equation. Love it!
