Quick Review (50 Words or Less)
The SuperStroke REVL grips are nothing short of impressive. With three unique models – Player, Element, and Comfort – there’s something for every golfer’s style. Plus, these grips boast excellent durability, making them an essential addition to your golfing gear.
Introduction
“Game changer” is a term tossed around way too easily in the golfing world, but let’s be real: SuperStroke has flipped the script when it comes to putter grips. Just when you thought they couldn’t get any better, they went and snagged one of the biggest names in grips, Lamkin, and combined forces to create the SuperStroke REVL grips. I had the chance to test all three models – REVL Element, REVL Player, and REVL Comfort – to see if they could pull off another revolution in the golf grip game.
Looks That Score
First things first, let’s talk about the looks. When I unboxed the SuperStroke REVL grips, I was blown away. They don’t look like the typical SuperStroke grips you might be familiar with – instead, they borrow heavily from their Lamkin legacy.
Each grip has some signature visual elements. At the top, you’ll find an oval “REVL” logo spicing things up on both sides. If you install it “logo up,” you’ll also flaunt a SuperStroke logo on the grip’s bottom. The butt caps come in contrasting colors that say “SuperStroke” on both sides, and here’s a cool fact: there’s even a nod to Lamkin’s 100-year heritage right there on the grip.
REVL Comfort:
This wrap-style grip comes in white and black, featuring a slight angle that offers both style and functionality. The two “wraps” above the SuperStroke branding are accentuated, helping with hand placement.REVL Player:
An all-rubber grip focusing on the Ultra-Tac pattern, it comes in black/grey, grey/blue, and white/black options. It’s sleek and understated but packs a punch when it comes to performance.- REVL Element:
The stylish rebel of the group, this grip mixes cord and rubber for that perfect blend. Offered in black/grey and grey/blue, its upper section is a dream for traction while the lower half is all about comfort.
Feel That Keeps You Swinging
Let’s dive into the feel – and believe me, this is where the SuperStroke REVL grips shine. The REVL Comfort is aptly named, as it’s the softest option in this trio. Made with Genesis+ material, it has a cushy touch that’s hard to beat. But don’t let that softness fool you; it’s got excellent tack and durability.
Next up is the REVL Player. Now, if you’re a fan of medium-firm grips, this one’s for you. It gives you a solid feel without sacrificing feedback. The Ultra-Tac texture really shines here, offering great grip and control, leaving you confident on the course.
Lastly, the REVL Element brings a unique blend to the table. With a cord top section that feels softer while still delivering solid traction, you’re in for a treat. It’s different enough to be exciting but familiar enough to feel right at home in your hands.
Performance That Wows
Off to the driving range I went, grip-testing game on. Overall, I was pleasantly surprised by how each of the SuperStroke REVL grips performed. The Genesis+ material feels decidedly softer than what you’d find with standard rubber grips. It’s not that squishy kind of softness either – it gives you a solid hold on the club that feels reassuring.
Each grip features an “X” pattern, which noticeably boosts traction. And here’s a fun tidbit: after testing Lamkin Sonar+ Tour previously, I can confidently say that Genesis+ nails it when it comes to durability, and a quick wipe restores all that glorious tack.
The REVL Comfort
This grip genuinely surprised me. I’ve never favored comfort grips, especially wrap styles. But the REVL Comfort? It caught me off guard. The combination of tackiness and an X-pattern grip gave me a solid hold. Plus, the reduced taper felt fantastic. Who knew comfort grips could be this good?
The REVL Player
I’ve always been more of a cord grip devotee, but the REVL Player made me reconsider my loyalty. Even when drenched, I had a fantastic grip, and the soft material gave me a surprising amount of control. If I were to ditch cords, this grip would be at the top of my list.
The REVL Element
Now, for the REVL Element – I was hyped to test this one out. Having used the Golf Pride MCC Plus Four, this grip is its direct competitor. Both designs sport a cord/rubber split, but the Element brings that added softness without compromising performance. After testing, I can easily see myself making the switch when I regrip my clubs.
The Numbers Game
What’s cool is that these grips come in various sizes to cater to different hands. The SuperStroke REVL Element comes in standard and midsize weighing in at 46.5 and 59 grams, respectively. Meanwhile, the REVL Player has an undersized option with weights of 47.5, 49.5, and 53 grams. Last but not least, the REVL Comfort comes in a range from undersized to jumbo, with weights of 45, 54, 64, and 81 grams. And the best part? They’re all reasonably priced – REVL Element at around $10, REVL Player at $8, and REVL Comfort at $9.
Conclusion: A Grip for Everyone
In short, I can confidently say that I’m impressed with each of the new SuperStroke REVL grips. This line-up brings together durability and high performance, making it relevant for all kinds of players. If you’re considering regripping your clubs, give these a shot. You’ll see that SuperStroke isn’t just about putter grips anymore. They’ve evolved, and so should your gear.
