ABOUT THE OG TAPER LITE 43
Used by PGA TOUR Player, Matt Wallace, the OG Taper Lite 43 is based on the design of the Original 2THUMB grips specifically developed to keep shoulders aligned while reducing grip tension. The OG TAPER LITE 43 is an incredibly versatile grip that will accommodate all of today’s gripping styles, from Conventional, Claw, Left hand low, Prayer etc. It’s tapered design stays true to our Classic range of grips which promote even grip pressure across both hands and by doing so reducing potential wrist action.
