Tour G Grips

[jamesons]

I've mostly used Tour G grips for many years now and always bought them through TSG but the 30's and 50's are both backordered with no known due date. Anyone know where else I can buy them? I am looking for the 30 or 50, cord, mix of ribbed and round, black color. 

 

Thx!

They look like a clone of GP Tour Velvet which you can buy anywhere.

[jamesons]

They are similar but not the same.

They are closer to the MCC grips

Holy crap man...are you seriously paying $21 per grip? That's crazy.

Yup. They are made of much better materials and last 2-3x longer than a GP TV (for example) which is most of the reason I pay up for them.

Ive used those, they are super comfy and last a long time......check Jauce and Rakuten.....

I feel you man. One does generally pay for quality and I can appreciate the trade off.

 

But, I don't really expect (nor do I really want, honestly) to have grips that last more than a season. I am very attuned to the yearly regripping cycle and it's comfortable to me.

 

Iomic X-Evolutions at $9 per grip is pretty comfortable right now. If things keep on like they have been, next year I'll be paying $21 and you will be paying $63. Ha ha!

These grips are sweet - if you know, you know.

 

Did anyone find them because I'm looking too.....

Would the 30s be comparable to iomic sticky 2.3s or pure? 

[jamesons]

I am unable to answer that. Before switching to the Tour G's I played the TV and TV Cord for as long as I can remember. I switched to Tour G thanks to Joe Kwok who told me about them and I stuck with them because they are high quality and longer lasting compared to the others.

resurrecting this- how do the Tour G Cords compare to the GP TV Cords?
