Added a Mid Slim to my Method Concept today.  Looking forward to trying it out this weekend.

I just put one on my Nome the other day and so far I'm in love.  The added texture of this years grip, compared to last year's smoother version, is a huge upgrade IMO.  

I think these are gonna catch on in a big way in 2013.

I had the 2012 3.0 and wanted something a little slimmer. So I purchased the 2013 2.0 mid and I love the new texture but really miss the larger size of the 3.0, so I went and got the 2013 3.0 with the new texture and I'm back in my happy place.

I think what's lost in the shuffle with these-

The ultra slim is smaller, but also heavier at 65g.

Super Stroke managed to make it a little bigger (basically a midside), AND lighter - 15g is probably just enough to make a noticeable swing weight change, especially on a 350/360 mallet that has a 75/80g grip on it.

Cool grip-

I purchased the 2.0 today and will be putting this to use tomorrow. I'm pumped.

Glad it works for you

For me it changed the balance and feel of my old 34" anser and I just never got to liking it.  as a matter of fact I got to where I couldn't wait to get it out of the bag.  Guessing with a heavy head putter it feels better.

So it was quickly back to a pingman for me and, thankfully, back to better putting.  

Another note to the side, it was the dickens getting it in and out of my bag.

Well looking for a little guidance here. I made the switch to a Scottsdale TR B60, just plain sets up best for me. I had an Scotty Select 1.5 & Odyssey Versa #1w, always trading looking for a better way to get the ball in the hole

I like the mid-size grip on the B60, but not too crazy about the cord, and it seem too heavy. So I bought a Super Stroke 2.0 that I was planning to use on the Versa #1w, but didn’t put it on.

I know the Ping grip weighs in at 85grams and the SS is 50grams, in theory if I install the SS on the B60 what should be the effect? Will I feel the head more, will the head feel heavier?

Although the putter will have a higher swing weight, since you grip the club by the grip and not 14" from the end where the fulcrum of the swing weight scale hits, I find that the club just feels a little lighter overall.  I do not sense a heavier head.  A lighter feeling putter may or may not be a good thing.  That sense of feel is highly individualized.
