Zig,
I've got 8 to 10 Golf Pride DD2 (yellow/black) grips that were blown off my Mizuno irons (but are in pretty good nick) or about the same number of Lambkin chord grips (new)

let me know and we can work out a price.

regards,

Pete

Are the DD2's Midsize Pete?

Exactly, DD2 midsize would be blue/black zig.

Or you could use tape to build them up to Midsize...the DD2's are a 60R grip and the KBS Tours are a .600" butt.

So, for +1/32" midsize you would need three papers...or 4 for slightly thicker !!

It's easy to check...it will say Midsize on the end of the grip if they are...I have seen the yellow in both std and mid.

yeah, but it's a pain in the arse putting four tapes on 8 shafts, well it is for me anyway :)

I haven't got a bag yet so, so that would be a hard task. i do have an offer of a rose bag, but i'm not a fan of rose grips so probably no :razz:

i have 9 cord grips, all new, for $50. Tape would fatten them up to mid size but they are standard.

Here is a photo zig, you decide. For what it is worth, I put 2 papers under the Blue/black DD2's that replaced these and they feel the same as the yellow/black!

p.s. just to make you all sick, this is what my Knee looked like during surgery. What was that about winning with 1 good knee.:razz:

Oh my lord! No wonder you are out for 8 months! That's not exactly keyhole surgery!

Saw my Surgeon tonight. He's pretty upbeat (although it is not his knee!). He thinks I could be back in April (and he is a golfer over with SMS's new club!).

Ask BrisV or Goughy or DaveS,
I was pretty bad on Sat arvo. I didn't know if I was going to play Sunday. I locked my knee 5 or 6 times coming in. Finished Bogey,Dbl Bogey on Sat. Sunday, I just swung within myself and didn't hit it anywhere bad!

p.s. The hole in the middle of my knee is where the cartilage was missing. That has now been filled in with grafted cartilage from keyhole surgery back in August.(grown in a Lab in WA) not Adlo's I hope!!

Those grips are definitely dodgy knock offs, the writing is all backwards.

Actually I can't believe no-one has asked

"Whats replacing this knee"

Photo 2 below shows the cavity filled in with cartilage grown in the lab from WA (sorry Adlo). Once it adheres, bone on bone problems disappear. Golfing again sometime after april! Anyone want to be a surgeon?
