Golf Pride MCC Plus4 Align Grip
Many golfers are really picky about their grips and all of their subtle nuances. Three particulars that often come up cord or no cord, extra wraps of tape to build up the grip size, and alignment spines/ribs in the grip. And of course, players are very picky in terms of these things being “just so”.
The Looks
As of writing this review the Golf Pride MCC Plus4 ALIGN grip is only available in the black/grey with pops of red accenting pictured here. The black top half contains moisture-wicking cotton cord to provide more traction in the top hand. The grey bottom half contains a softer rubber that is supposed to give you better feel and comfort.
How Does it Feel?
If you’re a long-time Golf Pride MultiCompound fan, the Plus4 ALIGN has that signature hybrid feel you love so much. However, there are two big differences from what you’re used to. First is the very obvious alignment ridge running down the back.
On-Course Performance
Golf Pride MCC grips historically do a good job balancing stability and feel. The rubber compounds they use are stiff enough for good stability in any condition and to provide good response, but soft enough for acceptable comfort.

I've been playing Golf Pride Tour Velvet 360 in standard size and they feel pretty good. During my testing of the ZX5's, the fitter asked about my grip size, looked at how I was gripping (space between fingers and palm) and asked how the club I was hitting felt. It felt really good. He then told me it as the TV but in "midsize"...
ejgaudette
Just installed these this winter in my all my clubs, just saving one for the driver since still testing some shafts. I had always played Tour Velvet but I tend to wear those out and was looking for something with cord. I like the cord on top and the bottom is nice and soft which I have liked so far.

I prefer the midsize plus 4 to anything else. I mistakenly went with the regular plus 4 on my irons and wish I would have went with the midsize. For reference, I usually am a large in glove sometimes XL. I tend to like the additional build up on my lower hand as well, especially in irons and wedges.

"midsize Plus 4" options... the latter suggesting "how the pros get more power"
DiscipleofPenick
I've played them for about 4 years now. They are my favorite grip in a long time, very comfortable and durable. I didn't like the MCC when they first came out but they've made a lot of changes in 15 years I guess. I used the Tour Velvets for years before switching. Take Dead Aim

I've got Plus 4s on my irons and wedges, have used the Multi-Compounds and the Tour Velvets, both are good, I like the feel of the non-tapered grip in the trail hand through impact.

I’ve been using the MCC +4 Align for a year. I switched from midsize to standard with these grips. That just worked out for me. Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy
