Review: Salty Non-Taper Cork Putter Grip
The new shape is the real genius behind the Salty non-taper putter grip. There is a reason so many grips of this shape have been showing up on tour. The consistent shape fits perfectly in both hands, there is no fat feeling in one hand while small feeling in the other. The non-taper shape engages the right arm instead of allowing the wrist to break during the stroke. It really allows for a great shoulder rock back and through on each putt. The shape combined with the smooth velvety feel of the cork is just heavenly in the hands. The lighter weight also gives better feel to the head during the stroke too. You can get a large cork grip on your putter that will swingweight heavier than a slimmer rubber grip.
The true test in on the greens. I installed the Salty 2.0 Non-taper Cork grip on my new Whitlam Tour putter. (review here) It is a match made in heaven. The balance of a tour putter is incredible paired with this grip. It feels perfect. The balance point, the head weight, and the feel in your hands is excellent. I’ve had the 3 best rounds of putting I’ve ever had with this combo. I’ve had more 1 putts and less 3 putts than ever before. The non-taper shape is a winner, even better than the original. While this grip won’t turn you into Steve Stricker on the greens, it is the best grip right now for feel and longevity. The cool factor is pretty high too; everyone is always asking about it everywhere I go.
Another cool touch is their ability to laser-engrave on them. You can find a number of putter manufacturers getting these with their logos, and you can get one too with your name, logo or initials. It is a nice custom touch that no one else is doing on putter grips. So if you are looking for a putter grip that will last a long time and feel great, as well as help your putting stroke with the new non-tapered shape; the new Salty Cork Grip is the one for you.
