Comments about Hireko RF52:Karma Black Velvet Jumbo:

This is another great grip from Hireko. I put these on for a customer, after extending his clubs, who is 6'5" and has really big hands. He played a few rounds with them and still felt they were small so I added four extra wraps on top of the existing one. He totally loves them. Very comfortable and he can hold the clubs with less pressure. These are very easy to install and remove and at the price very affordable for the weekend golfer.

Comments about Hireko RF52:Karma Black Velvet Jumbo:

I know a previous reviewer called these "non-standard" in size. Problem is, there are TWO "standard" core sizes for mens grips: .580" (Like Golf Pride and some Avons, etc.) or the more common .600", such as these. The Karma grips are a great price/performance value. The only knock on them is that the black rubs off on gloves after about 4 - 5 rounds, thus the 1-star penalty. I'll be trying the white ones for my next re-grip.

Comments about Hireko RF52:Karma Black Velvet Jumbo:

I have been building for about 5 years now. In that time, I have seen the prices of grips skyrocket. When I found these grips, I just had to try them for myself. I was impressed with the feel, durability, and quality of these grips for the price. I now suggest these grips to many of my customers and use them as a base price for most of my clubs.
