Last year I decided it was time.  For years I had been playing cally X-20 tour irons with 6.5 Project X shafts. (Yes i was fitted for those)  I just never felt like I could work the ball and the irons just felt dead!  So I started looking for a better feeling club.  As soon as I hit the 714 AP2's I knew they were for me.  I was fitted, and surprisingly most of my spec's came back the same, minus the telephone pole shafts.  My pro suggested i get my grips built up with tape instead of getting mid size grips.  He had his done like that and I really liked the way they felt.  I'm 6'3 and I don't have overly large hands, but lets say they are thick!  I trusted him and never really asked why I should go with regular multi-compound grips with the tape built up.  So I am here.  Does anyone have any idea why he would recommend it like that, rather than just putting a midsize grip on?  I love them, there isn't a complaint to be had.  I am just curious if anyone else has done it or heard of it and why.

Also, while I'm asking.  Whats everyone think about me doing the same thing to my woods.  I actually ordered my SM5's that way, just to be consistent.  My driver, 3, & 5 are normal.
