sdandrea1 Gotta remember too its not always the OEM's fault. Where people keep the clubs during hot months etc... plays a part. Black car trunk in Arizona in the summer...🙄. My TM boss has a black pickup truck with a black cargo cover and keeps all the demo stuff in there all the time. he was saying how the grips get worn fast. I said to him they're not worn... they're baked. He thought for a second and said... ohhhh right, never thought of that.
