Thread starter Oddsocks Start date Dec 8, Oddsocks Ryder Cup Winner Dec 8, Bit of a weird one here, when I was fitted at AG they checked my grip size and suggested standard with two extra layers of tape, I'm curious as to how many additional layers you would need with standard grips before you crossed over onto mid size, Obviously it will vary on the thickness of tape used, but if we assumed all grip fitters used the standard thickness?

Zack, You might want to check a different store. I just had some midsize tour velvets installed on my wedges over the weekend. It was done at Golfsmith if that helps. Thanks for the replies. Here's a little more detail. I am ordering a club from callaways site. They offer different grips that you can get put on the club.

They offer the golf pride multi compound which I want. You can only get it in the standard size and then add wraps to your liking. There is no extra charge for this grip. That is why I want to get it from their site. If I had to pay extra for this grip I would just buy a midsize one and get it installed somewhere else. Hope this adds a little more info to my situation. Thanks, Zack. Wahoo June 28, I've heard 4. Have 'em put seven wraps on just to mess with the guy that has to install the grip.

Local pro told me so and showed me how they compared. I had my dad's clubs regripped to midsize with standard size grips. Zack June 29, Thanks tws I've always done 3 for midsize. So no fears in the grips becocming too hard being built up? Vince SC bound Minarets said:. IceyShanks NiceyThanks. Is there larger difference in weight between extra wraps of tape vs extra material in the grip?

Vince said:. I wouldn't think so, I think it would be the opposite being built up. If that's the case, I'm down. I thought they would get harder which is what I want to avoid. Joined Jul 22, Messages Reaction score 2 Handicap With Pure there is a difference in the way they feel.

The butt end of the midsize slightly larger than the regular. I give folks the option if they want larger. It's about in what they choose. In my experience, no. Then again I have been play the same grip setup for over 10 years. So i decided to try midsized grips on my 3 wedges i usually use standard with 2 wraps so i decided to try midsized with 2 wraps to see if i like the difference. I went with the lamkin crossline ACE i love these grips and i'm interested in seeing how the midsize affects if at all my short game inside of yards.

Next time I will replace with a real mid size grip and experiment with more wraps. I could have gone larger on my 56 and I found the larger grip very comfortable for pitching and chipping.

I taper the layers of tape at the bottom when we do this to avoid bulk where the grip and shaft meet. A built up standard will have a firmer feel than a true mid, but we're not talking rock hard or anything like that.
