RobDMB Member. Was wondering what everyone thought of Iomic grips? Been thinking of trying the Sticky Mid and looking for feedback? How do they compare to competitors and how do they perform when humid or sweating? Exceptional wear and did really well in wet conditions. My only Knock was availability. No shops locally carried them. I switched to the Golf Pride CP2 Pros as they seem similar to the iomics are cheaper and can buy them anywhere. I install my own grips.
Did a set of these once. They are very flimsy and difficult to install. Wetness was never an issue but they did seem to hold dirt more than others. Quick wipe restores that. May i'll pick one up to satisfy my curiousity.
Have a set as well and really enjoy them. Got two seasons out of them so they last. Joined Nov 29, Messages 6, Reaction score 1, Handicap 2. Also, I intentionally picked a white grip to test because I wanted to see how well it cleaned up.
After a week, the grip was starting to look pretty grim. My only complaint about durability was that one of the grooves, under my left thumb, did start to wear by the end of the test. The rubber portion had a small dirt smudge on it, but it wiped away with a bit of water. With regard to durability, this grip is outstanding. This portion is probably every bit as subjective as the Performance review. I fall somewhere in between. Given the durability, I think that the grips do provide a fair value.
That does assume, however, that you can leave the grip on for two years and not be tempted to try something new.
Because of the greater durability of the Diarrow, I rated it slightly higher for value. The Peanut Gallery. To a man, our PGA pros liked the Sticky 2. One said that he would have preferred a rougher, more pronounced feel to the cord. Another said that he liked the Sticky well enough to play them if they made a ribbed grip which I recently learned, they do. Reactions from other members of the gallery followed along the same lines.
The Sticky 2. The Diarrow received reactions ranging from neutral to negative with the exception of one player who liked the Diarrow so much that he has already purchased an entire set.
He really loved the feel of the cord, saying that it was much better than his current Golf Pride BCT grips, and he liked that the design of the Diarrow makes it, in essence, a full cord grip rather than a compound. Final Thoughts. Overall, I am very impressed with the quality of the Iomic grips that I tested. Ignoring price, I think they are two of the three best grips I have ever used, with Golf Pride Multi-Compounds being the third.
Of course, price cannot be ignored. Are the Diarrows twice as good as Multi-Compounds? Are the Stickys four times as good as Tour Velvets? That judgment must be left up to the individual paying for them. I am inclined to say that the Sticky is, in fact, four times better than the Tour Velvet, in large part because I have been very disappointed with the durability of my last two sets of Tour Velvets. As to whether or not the Diarrow is better than the Multi-Compound, I think that the grips are so different that it's not fair to say one is objectively better, just that they are different.
My only true complaint about the grips is the size. As it stands, I plan to play my midsized Multi-Compounds this season and then reevaluate. Hopefully, in the time between now and then, Iomic will release a Sticky 3. Follow me on Twitter: MattSaternus. I have lime green Iomic sticky grips on my Miuras. I've been almost exclusively a Lamkin Crossline guy for quite a while, but the Iomics are absolutely fantastic.
Love the feel, and the wet traction is pretty damn good as well. My only gripe is that they're impossible to keep clean. They definitely put the dirt and grime on display. If anybody is wondering, I've also tried the Premio grips. I find the tackiness to be similar. The premios are softer, but I feel like the iomics are more stable less twisting. We looked at a lot of grips at the PGA show. GolfSpy X loves the Elite grips. I like the feel of the NO1 a tad softer than the Iomics, just as stable.
Of course, never actually having put one on a real golf club, it's hard to say for sure. MyGolfSpy is only major golf site that refuses advertising from large golf companies.
