Looking good. Are you getting your heads from Takomo?

How do those grips feel size wise compared to a name brand grip?

Been using the Amazon grips for a couple years. For the $$$, they're pretty decent.

I've used the Champkee, Saplize and the KNLY without issue. The Champkee being my favorite corded grip and the KNLY being a good 360.

Of course, YMMV...

Thanks for all that but how do they feel size wise compared to a name brand grip?

Ah, Sorry...

I've always been a "Standard" grip player.

I find that if I add 1 extra wrap, the feeling is pretty close to the big brands. So in essence, slightly smaller.

Texturewise, the cords are a little softer. I always play without a glove, that's how they feel to me.

The KNLY 360 I prefer to any "Velvet" grip I've tried. But that's just me.

What size/style do you prefer and I can send one to try? (If I have it and if you'll pay shipping)

Thanks. I wanted to give these a try but I was concerned about the size. The last time I tried a discount grip they were much smaller than a typical (GP, Lamkin, etc.) grip. If it's just a single wrap or so no big deal.

For the cost, it's an inexpensive experiment for you.

I find that if you're a corded guy, the Champkee's are worth the money.

If you're a velvet guy, give the KNLY a shot

I wish I could find something similar to the Lamkin UTX. That'd be perfect for me.

Good Luck!

Now that I think about it, their "Standard" size might be for the Standard Asian.(?)

I'm guessing their hands would be smaller that most of us.

Most people don't have giant mitts, Greg. 😎😘

Not this set.

CallMeAl I thought the Champkeys were quite good and a real bargain. The KNLY I thought were just ok, but couldn't really complain given the price. Haven't tried any others yet.

There have been differences in some of the same branded grips, but the last few sets of the KNLY have been quite good.

I did pick up a set of Kingrasp for the Mrs (color reasons), but I wouldn't recommend them.

I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the Champkee's. I've not run into a disappointment with them yet.
