Golf Pride Grips: The Only Part of the Club You Touch
Your grip is the only connection between you and the club, and a worn or wrong-sized grip quietly costs you control on every swing. Golf Pride is the most recognized name in golf grips, with models built for every hand size, swing speed, and playing climate. This collection includes club grips and putter grips, so you can regrip a full set or replace a single club.
Core Golf Pride Models
The Tour Velvet is the all-rubber classic, with a soft, non-slip feel that suits most golfers in most conditions. The MCC (Multi-Compound) pairs a corded upper section for traction in heat and rain with a softer rubber lower section for feel. The CP2 line is built for comfort, with a softer compound and reduced taper that helps golfers who grip too tightly. Align versions add a raised ridge along the back for consistent hand placement.
Choosing Texture: Rubber vs. Cord
Texture should match your climate and how much your hands sweat. All-rubber grips feel softer and are easier on the hands, making them a strong default for dry weather. Corded and hybrid grips hold better when your hands are wet or you play in humid summers, though they feel firmer. If you wear a glove on one hand only, a hybrid like the MCC gives your bare hand a softer feel.
Getting Grip Size Right
Grip size affects grip pressure, and grip pressure affects face control. A grip that is too small encourages a tight, handsy grip, while one that is too large can make it harder to release the club. Golf Pride offers standard and midsize sizes, plus Plus4 versions that build up the lower hand to reduce taper. The Golf Guide's golf grips buying guide explains how to measure your hand.
When to Regrip
Most golfers should replace grips about once a year, or every 40 rounds, whichever comes first. Slick, shiny, or cracked rubber means the grip is costing you control. Regripping a full set at once keeps feel consistent from driver to wedge. Compare Golf Pride against other brands in the full selection of golf grips.

Golf Pride Grips FAQs
What is the most popular Golf Pride grip?
The Tour Velvet and the MCC are Golf Pride's best-known models. The Tour Velvet is an all-rubber classic with a soft, non-slip feel, and the MCC adds a corded upper section for traction in wet conditions. Start with the Tour Velvet for dry climates and the MCC if your hands sweat or you play in rain.
What is the difference between Golf Pride MCC and Tour Velvet?
The Tour Velvet is all rubber, which makes it softer and gentler on the hands. The MCC combines a corded upper section with a softer rubber lower section, so it holds better in heat and humidity while keeping feel in the bottom hand. Choose the MCC if grip slipping is your problem.
What is the Golf Pride CP2 grip?
CP2 grips are built for comfort, with a softer rubber compound and reduced taper. The design helps golfers who squeeze the club too tightly or have joint discomfort. If standard grips feel hard or you grip with too much pressure, try a CP2.
What does Golf Pride Plus4 mean?
Plus4 grips build up the lower hand section, similar to adding four extra wraps of tape under the bottom of a standard grip. The reduced taper encourages lighter grip pressure in the trail hand. It is a good option if you tend to grab the club with your lower hand.
How do I know what size golf grip I need?
Hold a standard grip with your lead hand. If your fingertips dig into your palm, the grip may be too small, and if they do not touch your palm at all, it may be too large. Glove size is a quick guide, but measuring your hand and middle finger is more accurate.
How often should I replace my golf grips?
Replace grips about once a year or every 40 rounds, whichever comes first. Heat, sunscreen, and hand oils break down rubber even when the grips look fine. If your grips feel slick or hard, they are overdue.
Does Golf Pride make putter grips?
Yes. Golf Pride's Reverse Taper putter grips come in pistol, flat, and round shapes and medium and large sizes. Larger putter grips reduce wrist action, while pistol shapes give more feel. Match the size to whether your stroke needs more stability or more touch.
Should I regrip all my clubs at once?
Yes, regripping a full set at once keeps feel, size, and texture consistent from driver to wedge. Mixing worn and new grips changes how each club feels in your hands. The Golf Guide's golf grip questions answered covers more regripping basics.
