Golf Pride Tour Velvet Super Tack & CP2 Pro Grip Review

Great new additions to the Golf Pride lineup.  Reliable and comfortable.

Introduction

Let’s face it, when it comes to golf grips there are quite a few players, but there are few that are as synonymous with golf and grips as Golf Pride.  As such, it has to be difficult for Golf Pride to be innovative and offer the golf world something new that will also perform.  What are you supposed to do when you’ve already done it all?  Well, for 2014 Golf Pride has introduced the new Tour Velvet Super Tack, the CP2 Pro, and the CP2 Wrap grip.  In this review we will take a look at all three grips and see if they’re everything Golf Pride claims them to be.

Tour Velvet Super Tack : The Golf Pride Tour Velvet grip is one of the most basic/standard looking grips in all of golf with its single black color and minimal white Golf Pride branding.  This specific characteristic is one of the major reasons that it’s one of the most widely used grips in golf.  Well now there’s an updated version in the Super Tack which still maintains a basic black look and minimal branding.  The top half of the grip has a new diamond pattern in the rubber for specific performance reasons.  All in all, a simple and smooth looking grip that let’s the performance do the talking for it .

CP2 Pro : When I look at the CP2 Pro grip, all I can think of are high performance racing tires that you might find on a Formula 1 race car.  The textured finish is sectioned into a smooth “tread” look and finished off with nice red and white accents.  The red line extending down the grip on the top half makes alignment during installation a breeze.  A very nice looking grip that screams high performance without being overbearingly bold .

CP2 Wrap : The CP2 Wrap features the same diamond pattern that can be found in the CP2 Pro.  The most noticeable difference in appearance is the coil, or wrap appearance down the whole length of the grip.  The tasteful blue and white graphics give the grip a little bit of flavor without trying too hard to be noticed on every shot .

Golf Pride Grips 2014 (4)

Tour Velvet Super Tack : If you have previously played the Tour Velvet grip, but you’re looking for a little more durability and more tack or grip, the Super Tack is perfect for you .  I typically play the Tour Velvet and this made the Super Tack immediately feel familiar to me, but it was quite noticeable right away just how much more grip it really has.  It doesn’t get slick in your hands like the previous Tour Wrap 2G might when it was wet or a little dirty.  This is a feeling grip for all around conditions while still maintaining the signature Tour Velvet feel.

CP2 Pro : This is my personal favorite of the new 2014 grips .  I found it somewhat similar to the old Golf Pride Dual Durometers but with better feel and more response.  The CP2 Pro has just enough tack in it and handles club vibration nicely.  Typically, you’ll find grips that dampen vibration a lot tend to lack response, but this is not the case with the CP2 Pro.

CP2 Wrap : The CP2 Wrap has a very similar feel to the CP2 Pro, but the wrap gives the grip a little bit more of a “fuller” and supple feel .

Performance

Tour Velvet Super Tack : As mentioned before, the Super Tack had a very familiar feel to me, but it impressed me the most with how well it dealt with the elements.  It would get wet, or relatively dirty, and did not take rigorous efforts to maintain its usability.  The Super Tack is a very responsive grip and slippage in the hands is a complete non-issue.

CP2 Pro and Wrap : The biggest help in the performance of the CP2 Pro is the new reduced taper that makes the grip fit in your hands much better and helps reduce the need for being cute with different tape buildups.  Golf Pride also added a new 2.5″ inner control core stabilizer that increases stability in the grip and reduces torque by a reported 41% as the same grip without the core.

One of the things that impressed me the most with all three new grips was how well they held up .  I scattered the grips throughout the group of the clubs we have reviewed so far in 2014 and really put them through their paces on a few others.  Every grip seemed to maintain its traction pretty well and remain comfortable in the hands.

Golf Pride Grips 2014 (7)

I’m always skeptical about new grips being more than a bunch of marketing gimmicks aimed at getting my money before the golf season starts.  Fortunately, Golf Pride appears to have backed up their marketing with the new Tour Velvet Super Tack, CP2 Pro, and CP2 Wrap and sold me on these grips being worth it .  It’s important to make sure your grips are in good shape for every round of golf, and most golfers are likely in need of an update, so it’s worth taking a look at one of these new grips and getting your clubs ready to go for the 2014 season!

cp2 review, i used your sample on my five iron for a week and just loved the way it felt, preformed and looked. i will re order all my stick re gripped with your product and discounts for a dozen of them

I treated myself to the new Ping G30LS driver but was not a fan of the stock grip. I have Lamkins on my irons and was going go that root again when I noticed the CP2 Wrap on display. I loved the midsize feel and to be honest the colors match perfect with the G30 so I pulled the trigger and had the rep at golf galaxy put it on right there. Long story short I love the grip! Great feel and just the right amount of tackiness. I would recommend this grip to everyone. Enjoy.

Golf Prides grips are new this year in 2016 but your article is dated 2014. I’m thinking the template hasn’t been changed.

' src=

I guess I’m not sure what you’re asking. These particular grips came out in 2014 and we have not received the updated 2016 version to review.

My mistake. There were new grips I was shown at the merchandise show that have a straighter taper. That’s why my next question was going to be about the O.D.s Sorry for the confusion.

' src=

I have 3 sets of these and have an issue with all of them not curing after install. used same tape and solvent on another type of golf pride grip and no issue. even after months still not curing, Company did not respond to my inquire into this issue

Golf Pride Tour Velvet Super Tack Review

Josh Babbitt

The golf grip seems to be one of the most overlooked aspects of choosing golf equipment and being a segment that should be replaced fairly often, THP believes that more should take notice. Many of the companies producing golf grips have come out with products that feature rich advancements in technology and innovation.

Golf Pride Tour Velvet Super Tack joins one of the longest running grip lines in the company’s history. This new grip features a new material formulation that is there to provide high levels of tackiness as the name suggests.

From The Company The new grip formulation is complemented by an innovative multi-section grip texture. The lower section, located ‘below the ribbon’, features a wider version of the ‘plus’ sign pattern that was made famous in the original series of Tour Velvet grips. The new, wider ‘plus’ signs are aligned in a tighter formation to provide a higher level of traction throughout the swing. The upper section, located ‘above the ribbon,’ is comprised of a diamond texture pattern that was a direct result of PGA TOUR player feedback during development. This area of the grip provides added stability when maximum force is placed on the grip during the downswing.

Available in both standard and midsize models with a price of $5.99 and $6.99 respectively. Both grip models are expected to hit stores this month.

The Water Test While at the 2014 PGA Merchandise Show, THP TV caught up with Golf Pride and talked about this new grip and then had a demonstration done for the viewers on just how well the Super Tack grip handles water.

Testing On The Course THP gripped a full set of clubs and took them to the course on a hot and humid FL day. To say they performed well would be an understatement and it is probably best to let the testers quotes stand on their own.

They remind me of my older styled wrapped grips, but with more grip, feel and texture to them. Solid on all accounts. Dave from Bradenton

Been looking for something to last me all summer in this swamp like weather we get for a few months. These are perfect for that. Jim from Venice

The quotes were similar across the board. As it pertains to moisture control, not a single person that tried them out, preferred their current grips to that of the Super Tack.

When choosing grips, the number one thing that is discussed is feel. It is a purely subjective choice and that along with a look that one might like make up a large portion of how grips are purchased. To describe it best, the Tour Velvet Super Tack feels soft, but yet firm. Confused yet? The easiest way to describe it is soft to the touch and feel, but just firm enough to give you a solid foundation at setup.

Durability It is rather difficult to test the durability with grips during the duration of a review period, but THP has had a set of these on for three months and countless rounds of golf and they look brand new. A simple cleaning once in that time has left the appearance that they were just put on. Tune in to the THP Forum for continued updates on the durability as the Tour Velvet Super Tack gets more play throughout the year.

Overall Golf Pride has put together a very strong lineup of grips and the Super Tack fits in perfectly in the Tour Velvet family. If you are a golfer that likes maximum assistance with moisture, this could very well be the perfect grip for you.

Are there any tour guys NOT playing the “dot” version of the core Qi10?

The Dot Version of the Qi10 is a Qi10 Core with enough Hot Melt towards the front of the head that gives it the identical CG of the Qi10 LS but with the same "forgiveness" profile as a Qi10 core. Seem

Seems like everyone hates the LS because the actual RPM difference between the two models isn't significant enough to warrant playing the less forgiving head but guys seem to like the launch characteristics of the LS better

awesome info!

- Something that continues to go long off the tee in the fairway - Something that is a fairway finder when needed and long - Something that high, consistent and helps with par 5’s -  Something to help with long par3’s and short par 4’s

-  Something metal, lots of them and go the gaps I need - Something metal, 2x of them and helps me 120y and in - Putters - limited rotation because I cannot afford misses

Golf is what you make of it.  Play grateful and accepting. We are all lucky to have it.

Rather than expecting lets all try and appreciate instead.  Treat people the way you want to be treated

Theatres in Moscow

Cultural life of Moscow city is various and rich! Operas, ballets, symphonic concerts... Russian composers have created some of the most beautiful classical music. Russian classical music is very popular in Moscow. It is performed in many beautiful historical venues. Do not forget to include a visit to a concert hall in your itinerary when you are planning your stay in Moscow! And do it in advance.

There are almost no restrictions on dress code in Russian theatres. Visitors may wear jeans and sports shoes, they may have a backpack with them. Only shorts are not allowed.

A typical feature of Russian theatre – visitors are bringing a lot of flowers which they present to their favorite performers after the show.

Here are some practical advices where to go and how to buy tickets.

The Bolshoi Theatre

The Bolshoi Theatre is the oldest, the most famous and popular opera and ballet theatre in Russia. The word “Bolshoi” means “big” in Russian. You can buy a ticket online in advance, 2-3 months before the date of performance on the official website . Prices for famous ballets are high: 6-8 thousand rubles for a seat in stalls. Tickets to operas are cheaper: you can get a good seat for 4-5 thousand rubles. Tickets are cheaper for daytime performances and performances on the New Stage. The New Stage is situated in the light-green building to the left of the Bolshoi's main building. The quality of operas and ballets shown on the New Stage is excellent too. However, you should pay attention that many seats of the Bolshoi’s Old and New Stages have limited visibility . If you want to see the Bolshoi’s Old Stage but all tickets are sold out, you can order a tour of the theatre. You can book such a tour on the official website.

If you want, following Russian tradition, to give flowers to the performers at the end of the show, in the Bolshoi flowers should be presented via special staff who collects these flowers in advance.

In August the Bolshoi is closed.

The Stanislavsky and Nemirovich-Danchenko Music Theatre

This theatre is noteworthy. On one hand, it offers brilliant classical opera and ballet performances. On the other hand, it is an experimental venue for modern artists. You can check the program and buy tickets online here http://stanmus.com/ . If you are opera lover, get a ticket to see superstar Hibla Gerzmava . The theatre has a very beautiful historic building and a stage with a good view from every seat. Tickets are twice cheaper than in the Bolshoi.

The Novaya Opera

“Novaya” means “New” in Russian. This opera house was founded in 1991 by a famous conductor Eugene Kolobov. Its repertoire has several directions: Russian and Western classics, original shows and divertissements, and operas of the 20th and 21st centuries. It is very popular with Muscovites for excellent quality of performances, a comfortable hall, a beautiful Art Nouveau building and a historic park Hermitage, which is situated right next to it.
