Golf Pride MCC Plus4 Align MultiCompound Golf Grip

Product Information

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. 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.

I have just fitted these to my entire set. It takes a while but comes out the same as having the pro shop do them at a lower cost. Just don't expect to do 14 clubs in less than an hour. I probably spent 2 and didn't rush. New grips feel very different. loads of grip and the alignment really helps. They feel softer than before, but still getting used to them. Overall feels good so far. 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. One final point for the swing weight obsessed: the midsize version of the MCC Plus 4 is substantially heavier (66 grams) than the standard (52 grams). The align feature wasn't as pronounced as I'd imagined, which in hindsight is a blessing. It fits the contours of the creases of your fingers, so you just have to find the feel of your normal grip and all you do is replicate that on your next swing and voila, consistent grip application. It's almost an unoticeable ridge, but you will notice once your hands are in the same position.

Introduction

Useful for golfers just starting, it’s also a great confidence booster for established players, taking uncertainty out of the game.

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 These grips also have the benefit of consistency. Golfers are obsessed with the word consistency, and it’s one of the biggest reasons that I’m a convert to the new Golf Pride MCC Plus 4 grip. I’ve played Multi Compound grips for years, and I’ve always built up the lower half. The difficulty and hassle is in doing this precisely: making the half pieces of the tape exactly the same size and placing them perfectly on top of one another. That’s now a thing of the past. With one full-length strip of grip tape, I can have grips that are nearly taper-free and exactly the same from club to club. Finally, grips can be expensive so we would recommend being aware of how much you want to spend here. We would always suggest investing a bit more on a grip that is durable and will last a long time rather than going for a cheaper option and having to re-grip the clubs again sooner than you should have to. Golf grips come in a wide variety of different shapes and sizes. Modern grips boast a ton of technology that can help improve your grip and feel on the club, allowing you to make a better connection with the golf ball. So how do you know which golf club grip is right for you? Well, there are several things you need to keep in mind when buying a new set of grips to make sure you get the right product for your needs. For that reason, we've set out a list of key considerations that you need to bear in mind when purchasing your next set of golf grips.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 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.
