SuperStroke U.S. Open putter grips
You’ve said it to yourself before:
If I makes this putt, I win the U.S. Open.
You, me and nearly every other serious golfer in the world has played the role of a soon-to-be major champion at some point. It’s a way for us to feel closer to the championships we admire, and share the joy we’ve felt when out favorite golfers have won (actual) major championships.
This year, SuperStroke has decided to put those major championships directly into golfers hands with its major championship-inspired putter grips.
The grips, which are limited to about 500 pieces for each championship, sold out in a matter of days the week of The Masters. And SuperStroke Marketing Director Jon Luna expects the same thing to happen with the company’s U.S. Open putter grips.
“Golfers, especially the ones on GolfWRX, want small batch stuff that not everyone can get,” Luna said. “It makes it that much more special in their eyes.”
The U.S. Open putter grips are available on SuperStroke’s website for $29.99 in the company’s 1.0 (Ultra Slim) 2.0 (Mid Slim), 3.0 (Slim) and 5.0 (Fatso) sizes, and are identical to the retail models in weight and size. But they have a red-white-and-blue color scheme that not only honors golf’s most grueling major — it shows an arrangement of colors that could become a part of the company’s product line in the future.
“With the major grips, we want to show golfers what we can do,” Luna said. “The pattern on the top quarter of the grip has become synonymous with our company, so to be able to do it in two colors is a step forward because our customers have been requesting certain colors and graphics.”
Other custom touches to the limited-edition U.S. Open grip include an homage to Philadelphia’s Liberty Bell (this year’s tournament takes place at Merion Golf Club, located in the suburbs of Philadelphia), as well as a stars-and-stripes section that flanks the sides of the grips. The words “U.S. Open” are stenciled in under the Liberty Bell, and “Merion 2013” is printed along the seam on the back of the grip.
You can buy SuperStroke’s U.S. Open putter grips directly from SuperStroke in the company’s online store while they last by clicking here.

This week, we have our Tour Photographer, Greg Moore, on the ground at the OccuNet Classic at Tascosa Golf Club in Amarillo, Texas, for the 14th event of the 2026 Korn Ferry Tour season. With that, we see some great things in the Lead Tape Report as we roll into Amarillo.
Joel Thelen
Monday Qualifier, Joel Thelen is in the field this week. He has played on the Korn Ferry Tour for a full season in 2023, and he is back in action this week. A couple of clubs caught my eye this week in his bag.
First off: His trusted Titleist 816 H2 hybrid. This club came out in October of 2015, and it still remains strong in the bag. Also, take a look at this Odyssey White Hot OG 7, putting a capital S in the 7S model. This custom neck has some impressive lean for an arm-lock-style putter. The bottom of the putter is covered in tape for optimal weighting.
Mitchell Meissner
Taking a look at Mitchell Meissner’s bag this week, we have some great lead tape coverage. Top to bottom working from fairway metals, irons, and wedges. We can see on the short irons and wedges that there is tape at the base of the grip, adding a little counterbalance. Along with that, some tape on the short irons and wedges as well. Moving to his putter, he rolls the Odyssey 7 Bird putter. Meissner putts left-handed and strikes the ball right-handed.

Kudos to Super Slim for a tastefully done niche grip.
However, what we really need is the black/gray grip that is available in Japan this summer to better hide the grime of sweaty hands.
