JumboMax Tour Series Golf Grip Review
JumboMax has been making premium golf grips for years, offering players premium options for every club in their bag. The JumboMax Tour Series grips are no exception to this trend, featuring an almost leathery feel coupled with excellent tackiness and a sleek, traditional look.
JumboMax Tour Series Grip Features
The new JumboMax Tour Series offer a solid, firm feel in your hands that promotes even grip pressure for added control during your swing. This should equate to faster swing speeds as tension is released in your overall grip, freeing you up to make an aggressive move at the ball.
The grips’ dual texture feels like a cross between a wrap and a tour velvet, offering higher durability in the areas where your hands rest on the club. This will increase the overall lifespan of the grips, which means you replace them less frequently, potentially saving you money during the golf season.
JumboMax offers golfers 11 different sizes to choose from, making them one of the most customizable grip brands in golf. Players will also benefit from an overall feeling of higher stability within the grips, thanks mostly to a counter-balanced design coupled with an ergonomic shape for added comfort.

sizing availability
Perhaps the most impressive aspect of JumboMax grips is the sheer magnitude of grip size options available. In fact, the brand boasts the largest catalogue of size options in golf… more than any other company. Here is a quick breakdown of what I mean:
"Standard" Sizes
Standard
Standard Oversize +1/16
Standard Jumbo +1/8
"Jumbo" Sizes
Extra-Small +3/16
Small +1/4
Medium +5/16
Large +11/32
Extra-Large +3/8
JumboMax also offers a non-tapered grip line, the STR8 Tech, for players who prefer that feel. Golfers love options, and I’ve yet to see a company that offers as many sizing options as JumboMax.
Feel and Performance
There’s no doubt that the JumboMax Tour Series are one of the most comfortable golf grips available. While that might seem like an odd thing to say about a grip — you don’t “wear” a grip, after all — it still holds true in this case for a few reasons.
As someone who prefers wrap grips to tour velvet, I was extremely impressed by the feel of the Tour Series. While firm, there was still enough “give” in the grip to emote a secure feeling during my swing. Every golfer’s grip pressure increases slightly right before impact, which makes this built-in quality important.
I also loved how tacky the grips felt, even in my non-gloved hand. I don’t get the sense that these will wear down anytime soon, nor will they feel slick in wet conditions. The Tour Series’ dual texture complements each other perfectly.

Overall Impression
The JumboMax Tour Series grips are a little on the pricey side ($12.99 MSRP), but they are absolutely worth it. Their durability is top-notch, which means you’ll replace them less often than competing options. Golfers who prefer a slightly firm golf grip feel will love these, while fans of softer wrap-style grips will also appreciate their feel.
There’s a lot to love about these grips, and I’m excited to put them to the test this golf season. For a full list of features and benefits about the JumboMax Tour Series, including current pricing and availability, visit the brand website here.
