Lamkin Releases Three New Grips

Lamkin has released three new golf grips for 2018 that are designed with different golfers preferences in mind.

The three models, TS1, SONAR, and Comfort PLUS all have distinct performance characteristics in materials, texture, and sizing.

“We are always committed to delivering the highest quality, best feeling and most functional grips, but appreciate that every golfer will have a different take on those qualities,” explained CEO and President, Bob Lamkin.

Lamkin spent the last year developing new materials, surface patterns, and sizing to ensure every type of golfer has the best feeling and highest performing grip based on their personal preferences.

The new technology includes a new Micro-Texture surface patterns for a more comfortable and confident grip connection. All of the grips are also offered in their new PLUS shape which features a straighter profile that’s just a bit larger in the lower hand.

But enough about the process and technology, let’s talk about each grip.

Beginning with the TS1, a high-performance grip made with a hybrid of materials that are a bit softer than traditional rubber used for grips. This is a grip designed for the golfer that prefers the stability and control of a “Tour-inspired” grip.

The SONAR combines comfortability, tacky feel, and a unique combination of micro-textures, along with a reduced-taper profile to promote light-pressure grip tension. The SONAR is suited for a wide range of golfers that are in search of a grip that feels good and performs well.

Comfort PLUS grips are soft and have a shock-absorbing feel with the proven durability of your more traditional rubber grip. These grips have a smoother surface, a reduced-taper, and straighter shape. The design of the Comfort PLUS grips lessen grip tension and allows for a more controlled swing.

All of the grips become available on April 2nd and come in Standard+ and Midsize+. The Comfort PLUS grips will also be available in Undersize+.
