“We are proud of the fact that Golf Pride has served at least five generations of golfers over the last 75 years.

"We would not be where we today are without the incredible support of a golfing community that has embraced Golf Pride grips as an essential part of their game. Our goal with every grip we make is to give golfers a feeling of confidence to play their best.”
Golf Pride was founded in 1949 by Thomas L. Fawick, an industrialist, inventor and golf enthusiast. Fawick advocated that rubber was superior to the leather grips that dominated the market, as it provided a more secure and durable gripping surface. In 1953, Golf Pride introduced the “slip-on” rubber grip, a historic invention that changed the equipment landscape by reducing the time involved in manufacturing golf clubs and making grip replacement a quick way for golfers to upgrade their equipment.
