Lamkin grip reviews: N-DUR 3GEN, EBL 3GEN Paddle
Serious golfers want serious quality. And every
golf swing starts with the grip.
Amateurgolf.com
Player Staff Members recently
began playing
Lamkin grips
of their choice.
Much like amateurgolf.com has reported in the
past, Lamkin's lineup passes with flying colors
when graded by our Player Staff panel.
DURABILITY IS THE KEY
Staff member
Greg Austin of San Marcos, Calif.
immediately noticed the durability of his N-DUR
3GEN grips when compared to the Winn grips
he replaced.
"The amazing thing is the feel I get with the N-
DUR grips while still getting a grip that's
durable," Austin said.
N-DUR 3GEN grips from Lamkin have a dual-
compound design, formed from the company's
proprietary 3GEN synthetic rubber compound
and the N-DUR technology's traction-
enhancement. This allows for terrific feel and a
grip that can handle well the impact of a lot of
swings.
"I love the dual compound design," said Austin.
"It gives plenty of traction and just the right
amount of firmness for me."
WEATHERING THE STORM
Player Staff Member
Doug Stiles of Bogart, Georgia
played his Lamkin grips all summer and was
very impressed with how they handled the wet
and humid conditions. Stiles had typically been
a fan of cord-style grips, which perform well
under even wet conditions but has been
pleased with his Lamkin grips.
"I was really impressed with these grips in the
hot and humid weather we had this summer,"
Stiles said. "I've never even considered
switching back to the cords I was using."
Many Lamkin grips featurea hexagon-patterned
back panel, which helps protect the hand from
slipping at impact --- under any condition.
PUTTING FOR DOUGH
Bret Taylor of Foothill Ranch,
Calif. used the EBL 3GEN midsize paddle putter
grip to his bag and has been pleased with its
size and weight.
"I had tried other oversized putter grips but
they were always so heavy that I couldn't feel
the putter head," Taylor said. "But with this
Lamkin putter grip, I get the feel back."
The paddle-shaped grip is perfect for players
with large hands or those that want to take
their wrists out of the putting stroke. Each
Lamkin putter grip features the 3GEN material.
