Review on Enhance Your Golf Game With CHAMPKEY Traction-X High Traction Golf Grips - Choose From 13 Strong And Durable Grips With Tapse And Kits Included! by Sean Santhanam

TL;DR - great value - easy to install - would definitely suggest for grips on a budget - color can smear if you get the solvent on the grip when installing (but for the value, that's fine in my book)Let me start by saying I have never had clubs regripped. I've always used hand-me-down clubs and just used whatever grips were on them. I've ranged from a 12 handicap when I was in high school (20 years ago) to a 25 handicap (now) since I only play a few times a year as an adult.I purchased my own set of clubs 6-7 years ago, but they were used, and had aftermarket grips on them (no idea of the brand) and they seemed fine.I've cut back on some other hobbies lately in order to spend more time golfing. I've golfed 4-5 times this year and have noticed my grips flaking off in my hands and not doing great when I'm super sweaty. At this point I started researching new grips and how to do it at home to keep the budget down.When I googled golf grips, and the first results were $200+ for a set I about fainted. This led me to searching for budget grips and came across these. I found a few YouTube reviews on them and some posts elsewhere and they all raved about these grips.For $40 you get tape, a knife to cut off the old grips, solvent, a rubber vice clamp insert, and 14 grips. That's well worth it to me so I gave them a shot.I got them in 1 day (thanks Best Buy) and immediately installed them.Install time: this took about 2-3 hours for me. I've never done it before and didn't have a vice clamp to use so I jerry rigged a setup and went to town. Pretty easy but my hands were definitely tired and a little roughed up at the end.Feel: They feel great. My old grips were a very soft/squishy material. These are much harder. The diagram on the listing shows that they are a "soft rubber" but if that's the case, I'd hate to play with a "hard rubber". I hit into a net with my 7 iron for about an hour today, and my non-gloved hand is definitely scraped up and I can feel calluses building. This is fine to me, and I enjoy the tackiness and feel of the grips, they're just SOOO different than my old grips.Value: worth it. buying the tools included in this kit alone would put you at almost half the price ($15-20). I'm sure they're not the BEST grips in the world, but at my current skill level and amount of playing, I'm sure they'll be fine. As some other reviews mentioned, you can definitely smear/fade the coloring on the grips if you get a lot of the solvent on the outside of the grip. I did this on one of the first ones I gripped. After that, I just made sure to be a little more cautious and detail oriented to prevent the solvent from getting everywhere.Longevity: Can't speak to this yet. After install, about 10 hours of waiting, and then hitting, they seemed very solid and installed well. No slippage or rotating on the shaft.I only play every 3-4 weeks right now and live in the Midwest so can only play a few months a year anyway. I do hit into a net pretty regularly in my garage though, so I'll keep an eye on them and update after some time has gone by.
