Lamkin's latest grip comes with the promise of exceptional traction and comfort

Premium grip manufacturer Lamkin has announced the launch of a new line of technologically-advanced UTx grips.

The UTx is the first Lamkin product to feature the brand's proprietary Tri-layer Technology, which is designed to optimise grip feel for enhanced shot-making capabilities and excellent wet-weather performance.

The foundation of the grip is made made of a super tacky and softer ACE 3GEN material designed to enhance comfort, the middle layer is a moisture-wicking fabric weave that delivers grip control in wet weather and the outer layer is a firmer ACE 3GEN compound for torque reduction.

"As soon as I felt this grip, I knew it would be received with tremendous anticipation and excitement," said Lamkin Grips CEO Bob Lamkin.

"It's a perfect formula of proven grip materials, but blended in a unique way to provide a performance advantage that is immediately evident."

ACE 3GEN compound - fundamental to the new UTx grip - is a super-tacky material that provides superb vibration dampening and durability. Its enhanced surface tack provides a tension-free grip, enabling golfers to maximise swing speed and shot distance.

The Lamkin UTx is available now in three different colour schemes and both standard and midsize options.
