Anybody using them?

Anybody who plays in the South/Southwest during the really hot summer using them?

They look super cool online, but I've yet to see one in a store. I'll start hunting for them to see what they feel like. If they're mushy like most Winn grips, Dustin Johnson and whoever else can keep them. But I'm very interested to find out.

yeah i've used them and i like them. they are firmer than say the Winn excel grips but not quite as hard as the pci's, however i live in minnesota and it stays humid and i just have a hunch that in a dry climate they might lose some of their tackiness / suppleness. i would definitely give them a whirl though.

When they are so soft I get concerned about feel. So those that have used these please talk about club feel. I am starting to have good feel and don't go soft because I don't want to loose feel. I do like the idea of soft but so far find the cord type grips have the best club feel. So haven't gone soft grips. Love to hear some input on this part of these or any of the soft grips.

The closest thing I've found to "good" soft is Golf Pride's newest wrap grip, the Tour Wrap 2G. It feels super sweet in your hands with a hint of softness, but when you hit a golf ball, the club doesn't have the mushy feel like it does with Winn grips ... that feeling like the shaft is sliding around in the grip. I would NOT try using these on a driver, fairway wood or any long iron or hybrid you like to wrip off a tee. Of course, you can do want you want :) ... only a suggestion.

Needless to say, I HATE soft grips, so I've cut out the middle man and put Golf Pride's New Decade Multicompound grips on all my clubs, driver to lob wedge. They're so superior to anything else I've tried in terms of pure gripping power that I've stopped experimenting.
