SuperStroke Cross Comfort Golf Club Grip | Soft & Tacky Polyurethane That Boosts Traction | X-Style Surface & Non-Slip | Swing Faster & Square The Clubface More Naturally

I threw one of these on my driver last year when the grip became worn. I knew straightaway as soon as the irons/wedges needed grips, it’d be these. Very soft, very tacky. Similar to DryTac but less expensive. Durable in my experience as my driver grip isn’t showing any signs of wear.Tons of complaints here but installation is hardly any more difficult than other grips, in my opinion. If you’ve changed grips before, you’d probably agree. Soak the tape excessively, rinse the inner grip, dump excess solution on tape. Rinse and repeat. No vice needed throughout the process.I was able to change 14 grips without any damage. I’d absolutely recommend these if you’re a fan of the softer, tackier golf grip.

Bottom Line: A key to install is coating the inside of the grip by plugging small hole end with a finger, add solvent, plug larger opening with other hand finger and swish back and forth while rotating the grip. Then empty solvent out the small hole into the grip over a paint tray.Details:The grips are great. Being soft grips, they will wear out quicker than Golf Pride, but I much prefer this feel. It’s similar to Dri-Tac.These are definitely harder to install. My struggles and then success:Attempt 1:First attempt was without a vise, as I have always done. I coated the tape in the shaft with solvent and then coated the inside of the grip by moving the solvent tip around the inner edge of the opening. I did not plug both ends and swish it back and forth (later realize this is a key mistake).I really struggled just to get the end of the grip over the edge of the shaft and then really struggled to get the grip on. All the “goo” from the tape was piling at the end as I pushed. I finally got it, but was risking bending my club head.Attempt 2:I ordered a vise that clamps to a desk because I don’t have a full work bench to mount one too. I mounted it to an old ikea cabinet I didn’t care about and followed a similar technique as Attempt 1. Fail. I got the grip about 2 inches on and it bent and that was it. Trash. I realized the cabinet wasn’t heavy enough to hold my force of pushing, but the key problem was there was still too much friction while trying to push the grip on.Attempt 3: Success (see pic)I moved the cabinet against the wall so I could push as hard as I could. I moved the vise closer to the grip end. I squeezed the black tip of the grip and rolled it to loosen it up in hopes it would get over the end of the shaft easier. Then I plugged the small opening of the grip with my left index finger and poured solvent into the grip by swirling it around the inner edge. Then I plugged the bigger opening of the grip with my right index finger and tilted the solvent in the grip back and forth while spinning it to completely coat the inside of the grip. Then I removed my left index finger and let the solvent drip onto the double sided tape on the shaft to soak it, catching it in a disposable paint tray. I quickly put on the grip, holding the shaft near the vise with my left had while getting the edge of the grip over the edge of the shaft with my right hand. Once on, I used two hands on the grip to push it straight on, and it went in one motion. I don’t need to twist at all. Then, if needed, just slightly straighten by rotating it.Success! I used this process with no issues for the rest of the clubs.I think the keys were loosening the tip of the grip by squeezing it in different directions and then the thorough coating of the inside of the grip by tilting back and forth is critical.Good luck! I almost returned them swearing the inner diameter was too small, but it’s not.

These are great feeling and looking grips. Fantastic value, especially given the light weight (I was replacing regular sized grips with these larger grips but wanted to leave the swing weight unchanged). I suspect that the light weight feature creates a problem though. During installation, about 1/3 of the grips wound up having a bump in them, that I suspect was bunched up material. I presume to get the weight down, Superstroke used a sandwich type construction with a softer foam in the middle and a thin rubber skin on the inside, and that if I didn't get them on just right, that rubber skin would get bunched up. I've regripped probably 10 ten sets of clubs, so not my first time. Perhaps Superstroke needs to develop an installation tutorial. If you push on the butt end, they fold up and if you pull on the tip end, they tighten like a Chinese handcuff.

Five star for now because I loved the feel out of the package. It's currently being installed on new shaft

These are oversized grips and I really like them. They feel great in the hand and are tacky feeling so they don’t turn. I have bought these before, got different clubs and wanted to put these grips on my new clubs.

Love these grips, had them on the clubs now for a year + and have no complaints, good price, good quality and good functionality

I've been regripping clubs for over 30 years. These are very difficult to install. There is a 2nd sleeve inside the outer grip. You have to use more lubricant & twist on. The tip is hard to get over the end of the shaft & then when sliding it on, you can feel the inside sleeve, move seperately from the outer part (grip). Weird design. I also tried installing them using a compressor, but the inside sleeve will split. You can feel that when you grip the club. 1/2 of the 14 I did are fine, the other 1/2 have lumps on the inside & there is no way to fix. I took one of them back off & took a long philips head screw driver & slid it down the sides & instead of it going down the inside of the grip smoothly, it gets stuck. That is most likely the inside part/ 2nd sleeve, being broke. It didn't just break when using a compressor, several of them broke using lubricant & installing them as most club gripper do. I will send them back & get something different.

It was easy to install and after the glue solvent was removed it was super tacky and soft when hitting balls.
