The Golf Pride Z-Grip Cord is a firm, heavily-corded grip for players seeking maximum feedback and traction.
Looks
If you’re seeking a rainbow of options, you’ll need to go elsewhere. The Z-Grip Cord is offered in black/white. That’s it.
Feel
Golf Pride bills the Z-Grip Cord as the “firmest cord available.” There’s also a heavy cord and a deep “Z” texture throughout the grip. In short, if you have sensitive hands, theses are not for you. For those that want maximum traction in all conditions, however, these are perfect.
Performance
It earns me plenty of odd looks on the first tee, but I don’t wear a glove when I golf. You might think this pushes me toward a grip that’s easier on my hands, but it’s quite the opposite: I want all the traction that I can get. That’s what led me to try the Z-Grip Cord.
Conclusion
If you’re always in search of more traction, check out the Golf Pride Z-Grip Cord. I’ve yet to find a grip that’s more solid in my hands, and they wear better than other corded grips I’ve used in the past.
