‘Our softest performance grip yet’ – Golf Pride unveils new CPX grip

Published

on

Golf Pride has today announced the introduction of CPX, which the company are calling their “softest performance grip yet.”

The new CPX — standing for “Comfort Performance Extreme” — is designed to provide superior feel through a combination of extreme softness and new technology, including the company’s first-ever raised, EXO diamond-quilted pattern.

The new grip is the first to be completely concepted and developed at Golf Pride’s new Global Innovation Center in Pinehurst, NC — and is constructed from a very soft and responsive rubber compound that molds to the golfer’s hands in a bid to provide maximum comfort and stress relief.

The soft and tacky material features a 45-degree diamond pattern inspired by the grips on BMX bikes. This new tactile design is raised to maximize the contact area with the golfer’s hands in design to enhance performance.

In addition, the Control Core in the grip’s end-cap complements the soft rubber compound in design to offer both excellent softness and control.

“The connection between the hands and mind is critical in the game of golf. We’re so excited about CPX because the new design and ultra-soft rubber compound we’ve developed take this connection to the next level. Anyone who tries the CPX will immediately feel the difference.” – Jamie Ledford, President of Golf Pride.

The new CPX will be available on golfpride.com and at retailers on 4/1/22 and will carry a retail price of $9.49-10.49 per grip.

    Worst grips ever. The nubs on the grips will not stay dry playing in hot weather. Trashed them after one round.

Spotted: Tommy Fleetwood’s TaylorMade Spider Tour X Prototype putter

Published

on

Tommy Fleetwood has been attached to his Odyssey White Hot Pro #3 putter for years now. However, this week at the Wells Fargo Championship, we did spot him testing a new putter that is very different, yet somewhat similar, to his current gamer.

This new putter is a TaylorMade Spider Tour X head but with a brand new neck we haven’t seen on a Spider before. A flow neck is attached to the Spider head and gives the putter about a 1/2 shaft offset. This style neck will usually increase the toe hang of the putter and we can guess it gets the putter close to his White Hot Pro #3.

Another interesting design is that lack of TaylorMade’s True Path alignment on the top of the putter. Instead of the large white center stripe, Tommy’s Spider just has a very short white site line milled into it. As with his Odyssey, Tommy seems to be a fan of soft inserts and this Spider prototype looks to have the TPU Pure Roll insert with 45° grooves for immediate topspin and less hopping and skidding.

The sole is interesting as well in that the rear weights don’t look to be interchangeable and are recessed deep into the ports. This setup could be used to push the CG forward in the putter for a more blade-like feel during the stroke, like TaylorMade did with the Spider X Proto Scottie Scheffler tested out.

Tommy’s putter is finished off with an older Super Stroke Mid Slim 2.0 grip in blue and white. The Mid Slim was designed to fit in between the Ultra Slim 1.0 and the Slim 3.0 that was a popular grip on tour.
