I find the grips to
I find the grips to be excellent for both wear and tear. I have about 1500 shots with 7 iron and see no signs of wear or lose of traction. Also, Normally I would have to clean my GP Velvets after about 50-75 shots due to the grip getting shiny and losing tack. So far, I would have to say way to go True Temper. These are now my go to grips.
