SuperStroke, a relative newcomer among golf-grip makers, has acquired Lamkin Grips, which has been producing grips for a century.
SuperStroke’s stated goal with the purchase: continued innovation and growth within the grip category and expanding its portfolio of products and technologies.
“If there is a grip company that is most aligned with SuperStroke’s commitment to uncompromised research, design, and development to put the most useful performance tools in the hands of golfers, Lamkin has been that brand,” SuperStroke CEO Dean Dingman said in a press release.
Tour Series putter grips feature SuperStroke’s traditional and most popular putter grip profile. The Tour Series parallel design has uniform lower hand profile to minimize grip pressure and maintain putter head path for a more consistent stroke.
Please note: The Tour 1.0 putter grip does not come with a Tech-Port and cannot house a CounterCore Weight.
The deal diversifies SuperStroke’s selection of grips with technology designed to provide golfers with optimal performance through materials, surface texture and shape.
Longtime owner and CEO Bob Lamkin will continue to serve as a board member and will remain involved in the company.
