SuperStroke +Plus Series Putter Grips

Published

on

SuperStroke has combined its oversized, non-tapered grip technology with a new counterweighting system that allows golfers to make any putter a counterbalanced putter.

The counterweighting system is called “CounterCore,” and is exclusive to SuperStroke’s new +Plus Series putter grips. It works through a threaded cap design, which lets golfers add a 50-gram weight inside the butt end of the putter grip without removing the grip or using adhesives.

The +Plus Series grips are 3.25 inches longer than SuperStroke’s standard-length putter grips.

The +Plus Series grips measure 13.75 inches and are available in three models: 2.0 XL, 3.0 XL and Flatso 2.0 XL.

    50 gram is middle of the spectrum – why dont they offer 60, 80, 100 and of course lighter weights like 40, 35, 30? guess the grip size determins the weight already but see little custom options.

      Because then you need to add more weight to the head. Also the grip without adding weight to it already weighs more then a standard grip. My stock grip is 65. 2.0 is 95.

    I think it would be awesome for them to offer a non-weighted cap and some additional weight variants which would allow players to determine whether or not counterbalancing is really for them or not. Then, if a player does want to counterbalance, they’ll have a variety of weights to play with until they get the best feel.

    Finally! I’ve been waiting for longer SuperStroke grips, counterbalancing is absolutely a plus in my book. I would have had to do it another way if it weren’t in the grip yet.
    Other paul: my head is very light (332grams), just needs less counterbalancing-weight 🙂

    It’s good they finally are coming out with a counterbalanced grip. I’ve wanted to try their grips but without CB, that I currently play, it wasn’t an option. The added weight is very similar to the already available Tour Lock weighting available through most outlets though, but it seems pretty easy to add and therefore will likely be a hit come spring. CB combined with a soft feeling grip is a great combination.

    Awesome. Adjustable grip weights. Do we need a weight to add to the head? Or just a big pile of lead tape? I believe head weight usually increases for a balanced putter…

Best hybrids 2024: Expert fitters recommend the hybrids for your game

Published

on

At GolfWRX, we believe the best hybrid for your game is going to be the one that gives you the greatest opportunity to both score and save shots during your round of golf.

In 2024, we have seen a continued expansion of hybrid options from every manufacturer with models designed to fit golfers of all skill levels and clubhead speeds. Some manufacturers offer models all the way down to 8-iron-replacement lofts.

That being said, ultimately the best way to find the best hybrid or hybrids for you is to work with a professional fitter using a launch monitor and gap them accordingly. The difficult part is a lot of people don’t have easy access to fitters, launch monitors, and club builders — so at GolfWRX, we have done a lot of the work for you.

We want to give you the tools and information to go out and find what works best for you, and we’re offering recommendations based on exactly what you need from your hybrids.

We have again broken our 2024 best hybrid list into two categories.

  • Best hybrid for golfers seeking forgiveness
  • Best hybrid for golfers seeking versatility

We reached out to our trusted fitters to discuss how they sort through the hybrid club options available to golfers. Forgiveness and versatility were the highest-ranked choices.

Most versatile hybrids of 2024

Titleist TSR2

“Forgiving speed and performance,” is the branding for the TSR2. TSR2 hybrids remain slightly longer with a classical shape. Center of gravity is lower and deeper in the TSR2 for higher launch and maximum forgiveness.

For more information, check out our launch piece.

Ping G430

In all of the G430 fairway woods and hybrids, Ping developed Carbonfly Wrap in a bid to deliver more distance by positioning the CG closer to the face line in design to maximize ball speed, resulting in higher, longer carries. The lightweight composite crown wraps into the heel and toe sections of the skirt, creating weight savings of 10 grams, which are reallocated to achieve a lower CG and increase ball speed.

For more information, check out our launch piece.

Callaway Paradym Ai Smoke

Leveraging the company’s new Ai Smart Face, Callaway’s Paradym Ai Smoke hybrid has been reshaped and features a larger profile for greater forgiveness and a refined sole camber for better turf interaction. The Tungsten Speed Cartridge is positioned in the front of the club for lower spin and ease of launch.

For more information, check out our launch piece.

TaylorMade Qi10 Rescue

The Qi10 Rescue is designed with an all-new Carbon Crown that helps free up weight for improved weight distribution in the heads. The club has split internal weighting to achieve more distance and a higher launch.

For more information, check out our launch piece.

TaylorMade Qi10 Tour Rescue

The Qi10 Tour Rescue model features a C300 face with a more compact look and a higher-toe design. It’s designed for better players who seek to combine distance and control with iron-like turf interaction, workability, and precision.

For more information, check out our launch piece.

Most forgiving hybrids of 2024

TaylorMade Qi10 Max Rescue

Qi10 Max Rescue clubs are designed with all-new Carbon Crowns that help free up weight for improved weight distribution in the heads. The Qi10 Max has an ultra-low CG (center of gravity) and a shallow face height for even higher launch and greater forgiveness.

For more information, check out our launch piece.

Callaway Paradym Ai Smoke HL

Designed for players with moderate to average swing speeds who are looking to hit the ball higher to maximize carry distance, the Paradym Ai Smoke HL leverages the company’s new Ai Smart Face. It features a larger profile for greater forgiveness and a refined sole camber for better turf interaction. The Tungsten Speed Cartridge is positioned in the front of the club for lower spin and ease of launch.

Callaway Paradym Ai Smoke Max Fast

The Callaway Paradym Ai Smoke Max Fast is designed for moderate-swing-speed players. In addition to Ai Smart Face, Max Fast features a larger profile for greater forgiveness and a refined sole camber for better turf interaction. The Tungsten Speed Cartridge is positioned in the front of the club for lower spin and ease of launch.

For more information, check out our launch piece.

Titleist TSR1

Titleist’s new TSR1 hybrids are built with a larger, “wood-like” size to help golfers find more speed and forgiveness. They’re also built 0.5 inches longer than standard to provide additional assistance in creating speed.
