In for review, something that garnered a slight bit of discussion here on THP when we first caught wind of them, interchangeable putter grips from a company called SwitchGrips. The key here is that you can change grips without any hassle as well as having counter-weighting technology built into the design to give a lot of options to the user for finding a balance that works.
For this review THP was sent two colors from the "Player" line which are available in 6 colors and feature a tacky non-slip rubber material, they are only available in one size right now "small" (about the size of a SS 2.0) but more are expected to be available in the near future, and they are priced at $29.99 for the grip only and $39.99 for the full kit (it should be noted, THP was sent the weight wrench for review as well, but it is a separate purchase through SwitchGrips). Additionally, there are Leather ($59.99/$69.99), Gator ($199.00), Crocodile ($190.00/$200.00), Ostrich ($175.00), Stingray ($190.00/$200.00), and Snake ($89.99) options for those who like something exotic. Weight options for the butt end adjustability include 2g, 8g, 14g, and 20g.
Information from SwitchGrips:
Do you want better, more accurate putts? Would you like to be able to switch out your putter grip whenever you feel like it, without assistance? Would you like to add counterbalance weights and change your grips’ size, weight and color on the fly? SwitchGrips gives you the solutions that you need with style and high quality craftsmanship.
SwitchGrips is superior to other putter grips thanks to:

SwitchGrips is superior to other putter grips thanks to:
- SwitchGrips innovative interchangeable technology allows the player the ability to change the putter grip, without assistance, whenever and wherever with complete simplicity.
- SwitchGrips is the only interchangeable putter grip to offer multiple sizes for natural, fluid and more consistent putts.
- SwitchGrips ergonomic awareness is proven with the unique three sided design allowing for multiple hand positions maximizing the grip’s surface area.
- SwitchGrips acknowledges that putter grips are not “one size fits all”. The counterbalance technology grants complete control to the golfer by repositioning the weight into the golfer’s hand, thereby enhancing player performance, leading to a consistent stroke every time.
- SwitchGrips does more than just increase Player accuracy. This one-of-a-kind putter grip system provides personal expression highlighted in its three lines:
- Player Line – offers the choice of color and size. This grip has clean lines with a tacky yet durable non-slip quality.
- Leather Line – the highly sought after leathers are long-lasting. Now reintroduced with the new SwitchGrips technology these grips provide an old fashion feel with the highest performance possible. 10 colors are available to choose from.
- Exotic Line – offers the look and feel of pure luxury with the peace of mind of its interchangeable capabilities, this is a grip that will never need to be cut off of the putter. Players can choose from authentic ostrich, alligator/crocodile, stingray and snake.
- SwitchGrips takes pride in our American roots. Each grip is handcrafted in America and will fit on any conventionally shafted putter.
