SuperStroke reveals new “Zenergy” grip lineup on the PGA Tour
On Tuesday at the Cadence Bank Houston Open, GolfWRX spotted a lineup of new SuperStroke “Zenergy” putter grips.
Arnie Cunningham, a SuperStroke tour rep who travels to weekly PGA Tour events, explained to GolfWRX how the new SuperStroke Zenergy grips differ from the previous lineup of Traxion grips. Although SuperStroke isn’t yet revealing full tech details or a release date, here’s what Cunningham had to say:
“We brought out the new Zenergy grips at the Cadence Bank Houston Open. What we’re doing is updating the graphics, and we’re moving into a new line from the Traxion line. It’s called Zenergy, with a ‘Z.’
“We’ve got new, enhanced textures in the gripping zone, which is primarily down the side of the putter grip. Better textures, better feels. We’ve also got a new enhanced spine on the underside of the grips, which is just a little different. It’s going to feel slightly thinner to some people than the original spine in the Traxion. You’ll still have the feel of knowing where your hands are. It’s just not quite as protruding.”

“Then we’ve focused on improving the material. The material has gotten better each and every cycle with our grips. It really helps the feel of the putter.”
“The new colors are fantastic. We have seven new colorways: a really beautiful blue, we’ve added a purple, then we’ve got a lot of the traditional grays, reds and blacks that we’ve always had. The orange-and-blue is more racing inspired [not Miami Dolphins]. A lot of the car colors these days are that way. It does have an initial look of the Miami Dolphins, but the blue is a little lighter than that.”

“We’ve got a real soft launch right now. The feedback has been absolutely 100 percent. Everybody likes it. We only have enough product to display right now, and seed a couple. Right now, we have two guys in play that decided to put it on their gamer right away: Taylor Pendrith, who’s just coming off the Presidents Cup, he has a Flatso 1.0, and Brent Grant has a Pistol Tour. We have those two players for now, and we could add more. It’s still only Tuesday.”
“That’s the other thing we’re doing, we’re dropping the name GT. So instead of Pistol GT Tour, Pistol GT 1.0, Pistol GT 2.0, it’ll just be Pistol 2.0, 1.0, Tour, etc. It’ll switch into Zenergy going forward on everything, and we’re moving away from Traxion.”

Equipment
Neal Shipley, AKA, the “Big Fridge’s,” custom stamping
Neal Shipley was the first to admit that he enjoyed his food while in college. But since his days at Ohio State, he’s slimmed down and earned a PGA Tour Card.
That hasn’t stopped him from having fun with his wedge stampings, though it’s led to some misunderstandings.
On the 54 (degree), we have ‘Big Fudge,'” Shipley told GolfWRX. “It was supposed to be ‘Big Fridge,’ so this happened a little while ago. ‘Big Fridge’ was a nickname between my college teammates and I, with ‘fridge’ meaning stomach, a big stomach.

“We told the Ping guys to put … ‘Big Fridge’ on it, and I think maybe some bad cell service or something, and they thought I said ‘fudge,’ so they put fudge on it.”
On Shipley’s 50-degree he also continues the food theme, this time with his go-to order at the “Golden Arches,” and his stamping “DONS 7.”
“The number 7 meal, the two cheeseburger meal, that was my McDonald’s order, back when I would have McDonald’s frequently,” Shipley shared.

Those grips just get nasty. There are plenty of other options that don’t discolour and get yucky.
