Played it the last 6 monts on my fairwaywoods and driver absoluzley love it. I think its more easy to hit it straight. Btw im 14 so im had reqly long fingers so its okay using the large size. Loving your videos and your new indoor setup!
I regripped a set of senior clubs for my father to get him back into playing. I liked them so much I through a jumbo on my driver and midsize on everything else.
I am 33 and I can already feel my hands starting to go. I use a fatter grip and I can easily swing more than with the stock size. Then I grew up playing baseball so maybe it's just a comfort thing that I'm used to
I'm not quite ready for jumbo grips but I did recently switch to mid-size grips and it has made a big difference in my being able to grip since my arthritis kicked in a few years ago.
Those are the same ones I use. Love them. I'm almost 6' 5" and have pretty big hands, these grips pretty much saved my game. A friend of mine tried my clubs and he said it was like holding baseball bats. Yes, they do take some getting used to, but once you get used to them, you'll never go back. With the small grips, I used to have issues with the club turning a tad bit in my hands. Never knew exactly where the club face was, with the big grips, I know exactly where the club face is.
I'm a teaching pro, for years I've used jumbo grips and tell anyone who will listen to change...standard grips were invented in what the 30s? Biggest issue in golf is your grip...btw you forgot two of the best ball strikers ever, Moe Norman and John Daly ? yep, big grips
@@criticalhistory2023 yeah you should...I have average size hands and when I watch guys on the range fiddling with their grips it's like Shaq holding the ball... You will love it and wonder why standard even exists...I think all beginners should have the molded training grip to start...if grip ain't right your swing will never be right...most overlooked thing in golf
Trying out the Jumbo Max STR8's this week. I bought two of the Jumbo Max grips and hits balls with the 8 and 9 iron and tried it on a driver. It is such a secure fit that you can relieve the stress in forearm which helps with their movement. The grips have helped my son and for sure, they feel strange until you get used to them. Then go back to your originals you can also feel the difference in the amount of pressure you use to actually hold the club.
I've been using the Jumbo Max grips for six months now on all my clubs and I love them. I feel it reduces unwanted wrist movement which for me has lead to more consistency. I grip them with a conventional grip and don't feel I have to bow and hold off like you were doing. My advice would be to give them a try and don't be too hasty to disregard them. Persist a bit and I'm sure a lot of people will like them.
I put one of these in medium size on my driver and so far I like it. I usually hit a bit on the heel side and would rotate the face too much. This grips seems to help as I have long fingers and I’d grip too tightly. We’ll see how it does for this golf season!
I don't have those specifically, but I currently using Golf Pride CP2 jumbo size plus 4 wraps. You don't squeeze at all and can hold the club in a weaker grip, as you mentioned. Best thing that has happened to my game.
A couple years ago I dislocated a finger on my right hand and have been dealing with occasional pains especially when I thin a shot. I switched to the Jumbomax and don't have much data, but haven't had any aches or pains using those grips and I like the way they feel. I had a normal grip on my 3 utility iron trying it out and I did feel the pain a couple times on thin shots so I'm pretty sure that the bigger grips do help and could help people relieve some issues if they have aches or pains in their hands.
As a senior with large hands I recently started using a jumbo grip what a difference amazing more comfortable easier to swing. As I also use the Moe Norman grip it really helps Robert McCabe
I use the Golf Pride CP2 Jumbo grips on all my clubs... I tend to have less forearm stress using them... also, they are very, very durable... a few of mine have been on my clubs for at least 4 years, and they still perform great!
I just started playing, been using standard grips. Well, I have 10” catchers mitts for hands and have just switched to oversize grips. It makes such an incredible positive difference.
"A big piece of cork in your hands" hunh, Pete? Pretty excited you and the Good, Good crew are getting together! Is it safe to say Matt Fryer and Rick Shiels will also be joining?
I’m 67 years old and only started playing golf about 6 months ago. I started with a very cheep set of regular clubs to see if I liked playing golf. I did enjoy playing, but was terrible at it. I couldn’t break 100 to save my life. Then I learned about the single plane swing, one length irons, and JumboMax grips. I did my research and pulled the trigger and bought Cobra one length Speedzone irons equipped with JumboMax xtra small grips. I practiced the single plane swing with single length clubs. I only had to learn one swing for all my irons. I bought Ping G425 SFT driver, and two fairway woods. I now shoot in the low to mid eighties. In only four months. And I’m old! I credit some of my success to the fact that I just started playing golf and didn’t have years of traditional golf institution. I didn’t have to break old habits. I highly recommend this approach to golf for anyone just starting to learn the game. Young especially, but old as well. I think it’s the future of golf.
Absolutely loved this video Pete! As a former baseball player, I've wondered about using larger grips on my clubs since I began playing, but now after this video I'm seriously considering it. Love your videos, keep up the good work!
I us align grips. However I did install some of them for my lad on his driver and 7 wood and he loves them. They actually made a noticeable difference for him. I believe they are just for a very small size of golfers. Very cool and unique though!
Bryson is trying to keep his left elbow pointed towards the target for as long as possible. He explained it in GM golf's video. Maybe that feel can help you, Pete. Great video!!
I have switched to the UltraLite Medium and love them. I am approaching 70 years and have some arthritis in my hands. It is harder for me to curl my hand and fingers onto a normal size grip so these JumboMax grips are a God send. I feel I have a much better grip on the club and can feel the position of the face better. I would suggest to buy some of these grips in different sizes to see what is most comfortable for you.
i have always used standard sized grips but it always feels very awkward and cramped for my hands gripping the club so i will definitely have to consider bigger grips, maybe not that big
I have ML glovsize and i am playing light oversized grips ( Karma ultra light oversize 58 gr ) i love them !! I think Vinn allso have some ultralight oversize as well
I had the same feeling, but it really got better when I got the JMX Ultralite, however in Size S instead of XL as seen in this video. They are just slightly bigger than the standard oversize grip (which the guys at Jumbomax refer to as XS) and I'm so much more relaxed in my hands. I heard good things about WINN Oversize grips, too (they are also less expensive than the jumbomax). I use ML Gloves btw.
Used the Super Stroke Traxion Tour Oversize for a few months now. I found them to wear out too quickly on the driver and are slick and hard to control on the irons when its damp! Switched to Lamkin Crossline 1150 (wedge grip) with extra tape, the extra length gives better control when gripping down. Notice the difference and will continue to use oversize now.
I just put a set of Golf Pride CP2 Jumbo grips on my irons. I have to say, I was pleasantly surprised at how much it helped me hold onto the club. I do need to work on how I grip my left hand, but initial results were better contact, straighter ball flights, and more feeling in the heads, as I moved swing weight up the club by a lot with the new grips. I can now really feel when I tow it, heel it, thin it, etc. The one problem I have currently is hitting the ball thin, but I did have the clubs shortened a half inch to fix my dynamic lie. Having only hit a hundred balls or so, I still have to get used to the new grips, but it looks promising.
Just changed all mine to Golf Pride CP2 standard which are slightly wider at the bottom . They were expensive but got them at a bargain price from a PGA pro. My son (ex assistant pro ) put them on for me ! I bought a Titleist gap wedge with one already fitted and loved it , hence the change.
Hi Pete, I have these grips in the medium size. They help quite a bit with my arthritic thumbs. I guess it's just what you are used to using. When I hold a club now with a regular size grip it feels like I am holding a toothpick. ⛳
@@hotshotawb3923 Jealous? Not at all, I just can't stand Garrett. First how he handled Bro Five then how he is always trying to get in front of the camera in videos that has absolutely nothing to do with him.
30 yrs ago I found my shots were accurate and consistent with hand towel wrapped. Reason I used hand towel was that in December at Arkansas, it rained majority of the month and original grips are wet and slippery. So this jumbo grips are fantastic welcome.
I just switched to a large grip due to my weaker grip in my left hand, and have seen my swing improve greatly. Thank you Ken from my local Golf Discount for recommending them. Great video Finchy! Love ya buddy!
Had a fitting for new irons in September last year. My grips are now mid size grips with 3 tapes. Definitely feels more comfortable in the hand. It kind of makes sense; I also have an extra grip on my cricket bat - so it's about what I'm used to 😉
If you take a full swing with your long irons and mistakenly hit the toe of the club face, the shaft will torque violently in your hand, shearing the skin on your palms & cause a lot of blisters. I stuck a jumbo grip on my 1 iron and It has really saved my hands.
@@huntersandberg9193 You struggle with reading don't you ??? I never claimed I knew Bryson.... READING IS FUNDAMENTAL AND YOU'RE AN IDIOT ! Go read it again and I'll wait
I wear a mens large for golf grip and use a +4 midsize I’ve never tried a jumbo but going to a midsize plus 4 from Golf Pride made a huge difference in how I’m able to grip the club more comfortably, and more consistent pressure
I use the jumbo max xl on my woods and jumbomax med on my irons/wedges. Has fixed my huge driver hook and I can swing my 3wood away straight every time. Helps the big draw with the irons also.
I feel like these would be good for someone that has a severe miss left. Seems like you would have to force it to even flirt with anything left, with those grips. 😂
I play with oversized grips and felt they really helped me a lot. I might go with these jumbo grips when I need to get my set re-gripped at some point this spring.
I switched to these grips recently because I had started to develop trigger finger and pain in my left hand. These grips help me to grip more comfortably and still enjoy golf. They are a little strange at first but you do get used to them quickly.
I am using the same grips for more than a year, did not change my grip form or style, if any a little on the strongest side, it helps with stopping me to squeeze tight and sometimes re-griping on the backswing, it helps a lot if you have long fingers like myselft as I mentioned before for better results do not change your grip form or style. Actually help me a lot with confidence hitting my driver, been in the back of my SUV, and only come out at the range. I do grip very strongly with my driver and bend my wrist like DJ to better control and hit my natural power fade. These grips are not for everybody. if you remove the grips, send them to me, i will put them to good use, next time I re-grip my clubs.
You did a terrible injustice to the grip. You should have swing normal instead of trying to replicate brysons swing mechanics. Terrible shame as you did not help neither the grip maker nor the viewer in my opinion! Sadly you even used one length clubs which you are not used to. I must say that I don’t believe it was your intention to be biased.
I started golfing after nearly 20 years of going without. When I did, I bought a set of used clubs that had very new jumbo grips on them so I left them alone. In as much as I essentially started as a complete novice all over again, I enjoy them. A career of hard labor has left me with a lot of nagging arthritis issues, etc. The larger grips help me feel like I'm controlling the club face; probably more than is due. I won't be trying the SUPER jumbo but, for me, the bigger grip gives me confidence that I can do something that I patently cannot.
They're massive! I use UST Mamiya low torque mid grips on my irons, Golf Pride Your Velvet on my woods, Lamkin corded wedges and an Iomic midsize pistol putter
I use the Golf Pride’s Midsize plus. I’ve considered going to a fatter grip because I have big mitts. When I grab a club on the shelf with regular grip, it feels like the size of a pencil in my hand. Great video.
Thanks Pete, interesting . Lockdown new skill for me was re-gripping my clubs . Picked Golf Pride MCC Plus4 Align. You need the grips, solvent, tape, shaft clamp, vice (i used my workmate) and hooked stanley knife blade. Take it steady and it's about 10 mins per grip. Very satisfying...roll on the 29th March..
I use to have the small JM (Jumbomax) grips on my driver and 3w and really liked the feel but donated that set. But I have been using the Winn Excel mid grip currently because when I went to purchase the same JM grip for my current driver and 3w, they have been out of stock. So I tried the large, just for an experiment. The large did not work for me on the driver, but then just for giggles, I took it off of the driver and put it on an older 56 degree wedge. Game Changer! So now I put large JM grips on 2 of my irons and a 52 degree and WoW the feel is amazing!
I have GP std-size Tour Velvet but am in the process of changing over to GP New Decade MCC Plus 4 mid-size. It's too early to tell if the grips are having any impact on my scores, but the feel is good and I find the mid-size allows me to hold the club with less grip pressure (I wear a L-size glove) so my hands are less tired by the end of a round or practice session. The Plus 4 reduced taper allows me to maintain 'soft hands' when gripping down on any club but especially around the greens. They are heavier than a std grip so they do produce a slight counter-balance effect that changes the swing weight ever so slightly. In my case, I'm enjoying the change.
Have been using single plane swing for about 20 years now, saw it in a golf magazine somewhere, just made sense to me because it gets club face back to ball perfectly most times. Am a twice a year golfer these days, but I can assure you this method still works brilliantly for me, can consistently smash tee shot well over 270 metres with very little warm up on driving range. Love the idea of the soft jumbo grips, very keen to give that a whirl as also get sore hands.
For the past few years, I've been using Winn Excel Oversize grips - they are big but not this big. I find that the larger size enables me to reduce grip pressure and club manipulation during the swing. Recently bought a set of same-length clubs as an experiment and I'll be putting these on to complete the experiment. I agree with you that there's something to it - it's not a gimmick.
Hi, I've been using zero taper grips for a few years. I have now changed to jumbo max grips but I use the extra small size and my golf glove size is large. The xs size has minimal taper and stops over rotation of the wrist on the follow through. If you do change to Jumbo max ultra lite grips you will have to swing weight all of your clubs to allow for the lighter grip weight
I use the Golf Pride MCC Plus 4 in midsize. The lack of taper helps me stop hooks and my hands are bigger than the average person so them being midsize really helps.
I have them on my clubs. I love them! As a beginner from COVID i've come down from a 45 handicap to 17. Really stopped blocking stuff left and shanking right as much. Think these grips have really helped
As someone who has larger hands I have used midsize/oversized grips for a while until last year. I became intrigued by Bryson’s grips. Once I saw there trial program and return policy and how you choose the right size for you I gave them a go. I don’t think I could go back to oversize grips ever again. These work wonders for me. I use a conventional grip too. It takes a little time and effort to get use to playing open face shots but once you do you can hit all shots. I think people who want to give them a try to come in with an open mind and do your research on there website to figure out the right size grip to try. I also think these grips are great for people with larger hands. If you don’t know how to compress your irons and get that forward shaft lean at impact you might have an issue with having too much loft at impact
i have been using these for the past few months and they are beneficial for arthritic hands and wrists....but also gives you consistency.....with that they do take some time to get used to them.......😊😊😊😊
I've been using extra large or jumbo grips for about 20 years now I use the winn dry tacs. I've been thinking of going to Brysons size..Don't knock it till you try one..super comfortable in the hands, makes it harder to flip the club head over at impact.
I use them with great success using the "Baseball" or "Five Finger" grip. Taking a traditional grip with these feels odd...grab it like a baseball bat and you'll smile for days. Keep in mind the great difference in weight between the traditional and the lightweight versions. Makes a huge difference in swing weight. Drop one of these on your pitching or sand wedge and you'll wonder why you haven't done it before now.
I have a mild case of arachnodactyly. These grips have helped me tremendously. I played D1 for a top 20 golf team and I wish I had them when I was on the team instead of jumbo with extra tape. I can now use a proper grip where my hand face each other properly. My fingers are so long that the ring finger on my left hand still touches the pad of my thumb even with the big grips. But, the pinky doesn’t quite touch and most importantly they don’t dig into my palm anymore. I have a lot of lag in my wrists when I swing (I use the float loading method) and found these grips don’t hinder that in the least. 10/10 for someone like me.
I've been using the older version of the jumbo max grips for a few years now and love them. Have some pain issues in my hands and also was very "handsy" in my swing and they help both issues a lot.
Not sure if someone mentioned this already, but Brysons clubs are more upright than normal and this ties into the steeper plane and gripping the club more in the palm. Loving the content 👍👍👍
I ended up trying a jumbo grip inadvertently when I needed a 5-iron for a handed down set that didn't have one (lost I guess.). Not as jumbo as these, but still bigger than most others. It was an Avon Chamois (in brown, though that doesn't matter.) and I could not get used to it for the life of me. It felt like my fingers were so far apart that the club would slip out of my hands. So it in turn had the opposite effect on me of making me grip tighter rather than looser. Needless to say I had it regripped.
because of arthritis I build out my grips to about the same non-tapered thickness (but with some lead too to speed my down swing). It is nice to take the left out of (most of) the equation, and people who try them love them. They are a more controllable interface to and with the club face and shaft.
i just had my hybrids, irons, and wedge re-gripped to the Jumbo Super Stroke Comfort Grips. not as large as the jumbo max but larger than the standard i did had before. only hit the range once so for, so i'm still learning to adapt to them. needed to use larger grips due to the pain and arthritis in my hands. looking forward to taking them out on the course soon.
I currently run Gold Pride MMC plus four midsize with two wraps on my wedges and irons. I use the same grips in jumbo on my woods with one wrap. I was using JumboMax tour wraps in large on my driver and 3 wood but I found that there was too much difference when I use those then move to my irons. I found it better to keep the same general feel between my grips. I agree though, grips are the most important piece equipment you can use in your set.
I like big grips on my clubs. Seems to help me feel the club face and promote that feeling you kept looking for Pete. Currently I use the lamkin jumbo grips with 3 wraps of tape. Works well enough for me.
Golf Pride midsize with a couple of extra wraps. Been doing it ever since I had got my MP33s when I was about 15. I might look at supersizing now though.
I bought the max grip and added 50 yards to my drive. I must say that I use jumbo grips to begin with and naturally gravitated toward his grip without knowing it's a thing. My fingers are too long to use the diagonal across the palm. The Jumbo Max grip is comfortable for me. For others they do make three sizes all increasingly larger than a standard jumbo.
I've recently re gripped my irons with oversized grips , i think the idea of thicker grips is to reduce the tension in the forearms , i always felt like i've been strangling the club but so i'm hoping for the best next month .
I use Golf Pride cp2 pro jumbo grips on all my clubs, except putter of course. I find it easier to control the club face and can have less tension through my hands and forearms.
Hi Pete, I actually use a slightly thicker grip on my longer irons than I do with my shorter ones. For me, 4,5 and 6 are thicker because, at least in my mind, it helps me take some off the misses away. I was prone to a miss right with longer clubs. While the short irons were much more accurate. Thickening the longer irons reduced the miss offering better scoring... oddly driver is a normal grip but that’s only because I’ve not decided if my experiment worked or not and I’m not made of money 💰 Interesting video but I’ll not be going Bryson any time soon... maybe once I get 200mph ball speed....
Great video, as always! Don’t forget they make oversized grips in different sizes for different sized hands. I have these grips in a medium, I like them.
Hey everyone, sending out much love from Manchester ❤️

I miss seeing the colabs with you and Shields! The 2nd hand yearly challenge was my favorite! Cheers from the states mate!
Hi Pete! TXG has shown in some sample that larger grips do limit club face rotation but it’s a 3-4 degree effect max I believe
Good video Pete from Montréal!
When you get to be 71 like me and the arthritis starts to creep in using soft jumbo grips makes playing a lot easier.

It’s really no different than regular grips unless you have a smaller than normal bag. But the grips are definitely worth it!

It is harder for me to curl my hand and fingers onto a normal size grip so these JumboMax grips are a God send. I feel I have a much better grip on the club and can feel the position of the face better. I would suggest to buy some of these grips in different sizes to see what is most comfortable for you.
i have always used standard sized grips but it always feels very awkward and cramped for my hands gripping the club so i will definitely have to consider bigger grips, maybe not that big
I have ML glovsize and i am playing light oversized grips ( Karma ultra light oversize 58 gr ) i love them !! I think Vinn allso have some ultralight oversize as well
I had the same feeling, but it really got better when I got the JMX Ultralite, however in Size S instead of XL as seen in this video. They are just slightly bigger than the standard oversize grip (which the guys at Jumbomax refer to as XS) and I'm so much more relaxed in my hands. I heard good things about WINN Oversize grips, too (they are also less expensive than the jumbomax). I use ML Gloves btw.
Used the Super Stroke Traxion Tour Oversize for a few months now.
I found them to wear out too quickly on the driver and are slick and hard to control on the irons when its damp!
Switched to Lamkin Crossline 1150 (wedge grip) with extra tape, the extra length gives better control when gripping down.
Notice the difference and will continue to use oversize now.
Perfect video to insert the "That's what she said" in so many places!
haha so true!
a big piece of what in your hands?! haha
I just put a set of Golf Pride CP2 Jumbo grips on my irons.
I have to say, I was pleasantly surprised at how much it helped me hold onto the club. I do need to work on how I grip my left hand, but initial results were better contact, straighter ball flights, and more feeling in the heads, as I moved swing weight up the club by a lot with the new grips. I can now really feel when I tow it, heel it, thin it, etc.
The one problem I have currently is hitting the ball thin, but I did have the clubs shortened a half inch to fix my dynamic lie. Having only hit a hundred balls or so, I still have to get used to the new grips, but it looks promising.
13:25. When the barber asks if you like your haircut
So true 😂
Just changed all mine to Golf Pride CP2 standard which are slightly wider at the bottom . They were expensive but got them at a bargain price from a PGA pro. My son (ex assistant pro ) put them on for me ! I bought a Titleist gap wedge with one already fitted and loved it , hence the change.
All I can think about when you say a thick piece of cork is that Cork Soakers SNL skit lol...
It’s so cool to me that all the UA-cam golf accounts are all friends... shouting out Stephen was really cool. Love the video!!
Don't sell yourself short Pete, you are right up there with the best of cat videos. :)
Hi Pete, I have these grips in the medium size. They help quite a bit with my arthritic thumbs. I guess it's just what you are used to using. When I hold a club now with a regular size grip it feels like I am holding a toothpick. ⛳
Can't wait until the Good Good colab!
please no... not mamma's boy on this channel as well
@@M_Oz_ Who exactly is the mommas boy of Good Good? Sounds like someone is just jealous
@@hotshotawb3923 Jealous? Not at all, I just can't stand Garrett. First how he handled Bro Five then how he is always trying to get in front of the camera in videos that has absolutely nothing to do with him.
30 yrs ago I found my shots were accurate and consistent with hand towel wrapped. Reason I used hand towel was that in December at Arkansas, it rained majority of the month and original grips are wet and slippery. So this jumbo grips are fantastic welcome.
10:03 “using muscles that I’ve almost never used before”. Don’t think we buy that one Peter haha
I just switched to a large grip due to my weaker grip in my left hand, and have seen my swing improve greatly. Thank you Ken from my local Golf Discount for recommending them. Great video Finchy! Love ya buddy!
"Its your only point of contact with the club" --- You don't know me!
Switched to MCC+4 standard grips last year and WOW what a difference. Immediately felt more comfortable and more in control of the club.
I use the XL on my driver, and now I can't go back to a small (regular) size grip
Did you ever try midsize with 2 or 3 extra wraps?? Have you tried Golfpride Tour Velvet Jumbos?
Had a fitting for new irons in September last year. My grips are now mid size grips with 3 tapes. Definitely feels more comfortable in the hand. It kind of makes sense; I also have an extra grip on my cricket bat - so it's about what I'm used to 😉
“Ah-mih-zin” I can’t stop saying it that way now
If you take a full swing with your long irons and mistakenly hit the toe of the club face, the shaft will torque violently in your hand, shearing the skin on your palms & cause a lot of blisters. I stuck a jumbo grip on my 1 iron and It has really saved my hands.
2 of my friends use these grips due to arthritic hands. One is actually friends with Bryson
Liar
@@huntersandberg9193 You're special aren't you ?
@@TZOID08 no, I'm just being realistic. He's a pga golfer, who just completed it the MASTERS, and your claiming that you know him. Hard to believe
@@huntersandberg9193 You struggle with reading don't you ??? I never claimed I knew Bryson.... READING IS FUNDAMENTAL AND YOU'RE AN IDIOT ! Go read it again and I'll wait
@@TZOID08 if your friend knows Bryson, chances are you do to. I read it correctly, I'm just using something I like to call ✨logic✨
I wear a mens large for golf grip and use a +4 midsize I’ve never tried a jumbo but going to a midsize plus 4 from Golf Pride made a huge difference in how I’m able to grip the club more comfortably, and more consistent pressure
3 minutes in, and it seems like you haven’t really said anything.
I use the jumbo max xl on my woods and jumbomax med on my irons/wedges. Has fixed my huge driver hook and I can swing my 3wood away straight every time. Helps the big draw with the irons also.
I feel like these would be good for someone that has a severe miss left. Seems like you would have to force it to even flirt with anything left, with those grips. 😂
I play with oversized grips and felt they really helped me a lot. I might go with these jumbo grips when I need to get my set re-gripped at some point this spring.
Bryson’s long shaft. Mutant his code word and do this
I switched to these grips recently because I had started to develop trigger finger and pain in my left hand. These grips help me to grip more comfortably and still enjoy golf. They are a little strange at first but you do get used to them quickly.
Who else came from the Instagram live
Me!
I am using the same grips for more than a year, did not change my grip form or style, if any a little on the strongest side, it helps with stopping me to squeeze tight and sometimes re-griping on the backswing, it helps a lot if you have long fingers like myselft as I mentioned before for better results do not change your grip form or style. Actually help me a lot with confidence hitting my driver, been in the back of my SUV, and only come out at the range. I do grip very strongly with my driver and bend my wrist like DJ to better control and hit my natural power fade. These grips are not for everybody. if you remove the grips, send them to me, i will put them to good use, next time I re-grip my clubs.
You did a terrible injustice to the grip. You should have swing normal instead of trying to replicate brysons swing mechanics. Terrible shame as you did not help neither the grip maker nor the viewer in my opinion! Sadly you even used one length clubs which you are not used to. I must say that I don’t believe it was your intention to be biased.
I started golfing after nearly 20 years of going without. When I did, I bought a set of used clubs that had very new jumbo grips on them so I left them alone. In as much as I essentially started as a complete novice all over again, I enjoy them. A career of hard labor has left me with a lot of nagging arthritis issues, etc. The larger grips help me feel like I'm controlling the club face; probably more than is due.
I won't be trying the SUPER jumbo but, for me, the bigger grip gives me confidence that I can do something that I patently cannot.
They're massive! I use UST Mamiya low torque mid grips on my irons, Golf Pride Your Velvet on my woods, Lamkin corded wedges and an Iomic midsize pistol putter
I use the Golf Pride’s Midsize plus. I’ve considered going to a fatter grip because I have big mitts. When I grab a club on the shelf with regular grip, it feels like the size of a pencil in my hand. Great video.
As I suffer for arthritis these grips have enabled me to continue to play golf. And at 75 it’s a pleasure to get out and play.
Thanks Pete, interesting . Lockdown new skill for me was re-gripping my clubs . Picked Golf Pride MCC Plus4 Align. You need the grips, solvent, tape, shaft clamp, vice (i used my workmate) and hooked stanley knife blade. Take it steady and it's about 10 mins per grip. Very satisfying...roll on the 29th March..
I use tennis racquet overgrips to thicken my golf grips, and they work brilliantly, definitely recommend.
I use to have the small JM (Jumbomax) grips on my driver and 3w and really liked the feel but donated that set. But I have been using the Winn Excel mid grip currently because when I went to purchase the same JM grip for my current driver and 3w, they have been out of stock. So I tried the large, just for an experiment. The large did not work for me on the driver, but then just for giggles, I took it off of the driver and put it on an older 56 degree wedge. Game Changer! So now I put large JM grips on 2 of my irons and a 52 degree and WoW the feel is amazing!
I have GP std-size Tour Velvet but am in the process of changing over to GP New Decade MCC Plus 4 mid-size. It's too early to tell if the grips are having any impact on my scores, but the feel is good and I find the mid-size allows me to hold the club with less grip pressure (I wear a L-size glove) so my hands are less tired by the end of a round or practice session. The Plus 4 reduced taper allows me to maintain 'soft hands' when gripping down on any club but especially around the greens. They are heavier than a std grip so they do produce a slight counter-balance effect that changes the swing weight ever so slightly. In my case, I'm enjoying the change.
I've been looking for a review of these JumboMax grips, so thanks Peter!
Have been using single plane swing for about 20 years now, saw it in a golf magazine somewhere, just made sense to me because it gets club face back to ball perfectly most times. Am a twice a year golfer these days, but I can assure you this method still works brilliantly for me, can consistently smash tee shot well over 270 metres with very little warm up on driving range. Love the idea of the soft jumbo grips, very keen to give that a whirl as also get sore hands.
For the past few years, I've been using Winn Excel Oversize grips - they are big but not this big. I find that the larger size enables me to reduce grip pressure and club manipulation during the swing. Recently bought a set of same-length clubs as an experiment and I'll be putting these on to complete the experiment. I agree with you that there's something to it - it's not a gimmick.
Hi, I've been using zero taper grips for a few years. I have now changed to jumbo max grips but I use the extra small size and my golf glove size is large. The xs size has minimal taper and stops over rotation of the wrist on the follow through. If you do change to Jumbo max ultra lite grips you will have to swing weight all of your clubs to allow for the lighter grip weight
I use the Golf Pride MCC Plus 4 in midsize. The lack of taper helps me stop hooks and my hands are bigger than the average person so them being midsize really helps.
I have them on my clubs. I love them!
As a beginner from COVID i've come down from a 45 handicap to 17.
Really stopped blocking stuff left and shanking right as much.
Think these grips have really helped
As someone who has larger hands I have used midsize/oversized grips for a while until last year. I became intrigued by Bryson’s grips. Once I saw there trial program and return policy and how you choose the right size for you I gave them a go. I don’t think I could go back to oversize grips ever again. These work wonders for me. I use a conventional grip too. It takes a little time and effort to get use to playing open face shots but once you do you can hit all shots. I think people who want to give them a try to come in with an open mind and do your research on there website to figure out the right size grip to try. I also think these grips are great for people with larger hands. If you don’t know how to compress your irons and get that forward shaft lean at impact you might have an issue with having too much loft at impact
Using Pure and Star grips allows you to use air to install and uninstall without tape. Faster if you have air pressure available.
Great video.
i have been using these for the past few months and they are beneficial for arthritic hands and wrists....but also gives you consistency.....with that they do take some time to get used to them.......😊😊😊😊
I've been using extra large or jumbo grips for about 20 years now I use the winn dry tacs. I've been thinking of going to Brysons size..Don't knock it till you try one..super comfortable in the hands, makes it harder to flip the club head over at impact.
I use them with great success using the "Baseball" or "Five Finger" grip. Taking a traditional grip with these feels odd...grab it like a baseball bat and you'll smile for days. Keep in mind the great difference in weight between the traditional and the lightweight versions. Makes a huge difference in swing weight. Drop one of these on your pitching or sand wedge and you'll wonder why you haven't done it before now.
It’s about time grips like these we’re finally made👍🏻🇨🇦⛳️
I have a mild case of arachnodactyly. These grips have helped me tremendously. I played D1 for a top 20 golf team and I wish I had them when I was on the team instead of jumbo with extra tape. I can now use a proper grip where my hand face each other properly. My fingers are so long that the ring finger on my left hand still touches the pad of my thumb even with the big grips. But, the pinky doesn’t quite touch and most importantly they don’t dig into my palm anymore. I have a lot of lag in my wrists when I swing (I use the float loading method) and found these grips don’t hinder that in the least. 10/10 for someone like me.
I've been using the older version of the jumbo max grips for a few years now and love them. Have some pain issues in my hands and also was very "handsy" in my swing and they help both issues a lot.
ive used the 1st gen jumbo max on my driver for 4 years and just put the new ultralight on my new radspeed. Definitely has a great feel and helped me.
Not sure if someone mentioned this already, but Brysons clubs are more upright than normal and this ties into the steeper plane and gripping the club more in the palm. Loving the content 👍👍👍
I ended up trying a jumbo grip inadvertently when I needed a 5-iron for a handed down set that didn't have one (lost I guess.). Not as jumbo as these, but still bigger than most others. It was an Avon Chamois (in brown, though that doesn't matter.) and I could not get used to it for the life of me. It felt like my fingers were so far apart that the club would slip out of my hands. So it in turn had the opposite effect on me of making me grip tighter rather than looser. Needless to say I had it regripped.
because of arthritis I build out my grips to about the same non-tapered thickness (but with some lead too to speed my down swing). It is nice to take the left out of (most of) the equation, and people who try them love them. They are a more controllable interface to and with the club face and shaft.
I use the midsize version of the jumbo max grips and love them. Still big but comfortable for me
i just had my hybrids, irons, and wedge re-gripped to the Jumbo Super Stroke Comfort Grips. not as large as the jumbo max but larger than the standard i did had before. only hit the range once so for, so i'm still learning to adapt to them. needed to use larger grips due to the pain and arthritis in my hands. looking forward to taking them out on the course soon.
I currently run Gold Pride MMC plus four midsize with two wraps on my wedges and irons. I use the same grips in jumbo on my woods with one wrap. I was using JumboMax tour wraps in large on my driver and 3 wood but I found that there was too much difference when I use those then move to my irons. I found it better to keep the same general feel between my grips. I agree though, grips are the most important piece equipment you can use in your set.
I like big grips on my clubs. Seems to help me feel the club face and promote that feeling you kept looking for Pete. Currently I use the lamkin jumbo grips with 3 wraps of tape. Works well enough for me.
I use CP2 Wraps. I have midsize on my woods and standard +4 on my irons. I like the woods to feel a bit softer so I don't grip them too tight.
Golf Pride midsize with a couple of extra wraps. Been doing it ever since I had got my MP33s when I was about 15. I might look at supersizing now though.
I bought the max grip and added 50 yards to my drive. I must say that I use jumbo grips to begin with and naturally gravitated toward his grip without knowing it's a thing. My fingers are too long to use the diagonal across the palm. The Jumbo Max grip is comfortable for me. For others they do make three sizes all increasingly larger than a standard jumbo.
I've recently re gripped my irons with oversized grips , i think the idea of thicker grips is to reduce the tension in the forearms , i always felt like i've been strangling the club but so i'm hoping for the best next month .
I use Golf Pride cp2 pro jumbo grips on all my clubs, except putter of course. I find it easier to control the club face and can have less tension through my hands and forearms.
Hi Pete, I actually use a slightly thicker grip on my longer irons than I do with my shorter ones. For me, 4,5 and 6 are thicker because, at least in my mind, it helps me take some off the misses away. I was prone to a miss right with longer clubs. While the short irons were much more accurate. Thickening the longer irons reduced the miss offering better scoring... oddly driver is a normal grip but that’s only because I’ve not decided if my experiment worked or not and I’m not made of money 💰
Interesting video but I’ll not be going Bryson any time soon... maybe once I get 200mph ball speed....
Great video, as always! Don’t forget they make oversized grips in different sizes for different sized hands. I have these grips in a medium, I like them.
