Re: ShopTalk: Has the Sofftie grip been discontinued?

[Ralph Harwood]

Steve, I have tried the Player's Sofftie one time and I wasn't too happy with them. A little firmer than I prefer and I was also disappointed that the red stripping on some of the grips I used would unravel and make the grip look ugly and not consistent with the rest of the set. No big deal for me but I would not want that happen to my customers.  I hope it was just an isolated problem that I had then. Ralph Steve "Cub" Culbreth wrote: Ralph, I didn't see any replies. I can't say for sure but I am pretty certain they dropped the original for the Player's Softie. I know my sales of the original hit rock bottom once I offered the Player's Softie. I even quit using the original. Play in the rain is the normal here in Hawaii and the original was slick as a greased pig when it got wet. The Player's Softie seems to hold up better. I figured it was just a matter of time before the original was discontinued.

I have received the newest Golfworks and Golfsmith catalogs and they only sell the Player's Sofftie grip. I looked on Golf Pride's website and they are showing only the Player's Sofftie grip but still in their descriptions refer to the original Sofftie grip. Which leads me to believe they have discontinued this grip but have not updated all of their descriptions on their webpage. Am I correct? If so, I am disappointed because this was my favorite grip too. Ralph
