I love this grip.  Those of you who follow this blog regularly remember my post last month about the Gridiron Grips from BestGrips.com.  Those were for your irons and woods, this one, is for your putter.

The Gridiron Putter Grip

Just like the other grips in the Gridiron family, the Gridiron Putter Grip is made from the same leather material as a football.  The feel is identical and it is held together with the "baseball-style" stitching.  The major different between the two grips is the flat front of the putter grip, which allows you to keep your hands quiet while making your stroke.

 It's no secret, I have never been a great (or even good) putter.  Earlier this year, I made the change from a round grip to one with a flat front and it has made a world of difference for me.  I have had my best season putting including a couple of rounds with under 30 putts.  I can't promise the same for you but if it's broke, try and fix it.  When you buy a putter, the grip is a standard grip the company puts on all of their putters (that model).  If putting is all about feel, shouldn't you have something in your hands your comfortable with?

In all fairness, this grip may not be for everyone.  Just like the Gridiron Grips for irons and woods, if you don't like the feel of a football, this is not the grip for you.  I can't stress that enough.  This feels and even smells like a football (I would have done the taste test but my football is too dirty to taste).  Only consider this grip if you really enjoy the way a football feels.
