Lamkin UTX vs Z5?

ZWExton

Anyone have experience with these two grips?

I've been using Pure DTX on my irons, but have issues with my bottom hand in TX summers as this is a pure rubber grip that is slippery when wet.

I've had good luck with the Lamkin UTX, but it seems like the Z5 is newer AND cheaper. I dig the color schemes, too. Based on Lamkin's marketing the Z5 should be the best grip they've ever made, a "super" UTX.

Any feedback?

I can't help you on the new Lamkin models but wanted to say I've been using Lamkin Crosslines forever and consider them the best on the market. So, I would say anything by Lamkin is probably good.

Something to keep in mind with the Lamkin grips is that many are .580 core and will be a bit larger when installed on .600 shafts. It may or may not be an issue but something to be aware of. I think both the UTX and Z5 are .580 and only 2g diff in weight.
