The P2 Reflex Tour is the biggest putter grip P2 makes, and it’s $34.99. If you want the most grip you can put on a putter, start here.
Is the P2 Reflex Tour Putter Grip worth buying?
P2’s whole pitch is an off-center shaft, which it says keeps your wrists quieter so your shoulders run the stroke. The Reflex puts that idea in the biggest, deepest shape P2 makes. Seven of the eight P2s cost the same $34.99, so you’re picking a size, not a price.
Quick Overview
- It’s $34.99 direct from P2, in Black, White, Gray, Red or Blue.
- It’s the biggest grip in the P2 lineup, with rounded sides, a flat spot for your thumbs and almost no taper.
- It weighs 77 grams, which makes it one of the heavier P2 grips.
- The shaft sits off center, which a SuperStroke Zenergy or Zero Taper doesn’t do.
- It fits standard putter shafts and goes on with normal grip tape and solvent.

The Reflex Tour Fills Your Hands So Your Wrists Have Less to Do
Here’s the thing with a skinny grip. Your fingers wrap all the way around it, and it’s really easy for your hands to get involved. The putter face flips open, flips closed, and you’re guessing on every short one.
A big grip fills your palms instead. And the Reflex is about as big as P2 goes. It barely tapers from top to bottom, so both hands sit on the same size grip, and the flat front gives your thumbs a place to land the same way every time.
I have a fat mallet grip, so I get the appeal. A big grip gives your hands one job. Hold on, and let your shoulders rock the putter.
But big is a feel thing. If your hands are on the smaller side, the Reflex can feel like you’re holding a rolling pin. That’s not a defect. It’s just the wrong P2 for you.
Why P2 Moves the Shaft, and Why the Proof Is P2’s Own
A Zenergy or Zero Taper at this price puts the shaft right in the middle. P2 moves it toward the back. Basically, that raises your hands a little at address and sets your wrists so they have less room to hinge during the stroke.
P2 backs that up with a test from Quintic Sports, a putting analysis company, and says it showed better start lines and less face twist. They haven’t published how the test was run, so take it as the pitch, not the proof.
The putter can feel like it sits a little more upright at address, because your hands are higher. P2 says the real lie angle doesn’t change.
At 77 Grams, It Will Change How Your Putter Feels
The Reflex weighs 77 grams. That’s 22 grams more than the Aware Tour, P2’s lightest grip, and 8 grams less than the Touch Tour.
Now, here’s why that matters. More weight up in the grip moves the putter’s balance point toward your hands, so the head feels lighter when you swing it. Some golfers like that. But if you spent time getting your putter to feel exactly right with a light stock grip, expect it to feel different. My heavy putters vs light putters breakdown goes deeper on that.
And a heads up if you’re doing your homework. Most of the reviews you’ll find online are from 2017 to 2019, and they’re about the original Reflex, which weighed 182 grams. The Tour version is 77. Whatever those reviews say about how it feels, it’s a different grip.
When the Reflex Beats the React, Touch Pro+ and Vibe Max
Every P2 shares the same off-center shaft, so that’s not the decision. What you’re really choosing is size, shape and weight.
Go with the Reflex if you want the most grip in your hands that P2 makes, in a rounded shape, not a pistol.
Step down to the P2 React Tour if the Reflex sounds like too much. It’s still oversize with almost no taper and a wide thumb flat, but it’s a size smaller and 67 grams.
Look at the P2 Touch Pro+ if you like a big grip but you grew up on a pistol shape. It’s 70 grams, and P2 lists a 1.5-degree offset for it, one of only three P2s with a published number.
And if you want to split your hands or move them up and down the grip, the Reflex isn’t the answer. That’s the P2 Vibe Max, which goes longer, not fatter, and costs $39.99.
One tip before you order. P2 has a free comparison tool on its site that lays its grip shapes over more than 60 grips from other brands. If you already know you like a certain SuperStroke or Golf Pride, check it there first. That’s the closest thing you’ll get to holding it in a shop.
What I Don’t Love
You can’t pick one up and squeeze it. No big US golf chain carries P2, so you’re buying a $35 grip off a spec sheet and a comparison tool. With most grips, you’d walk into a store and know in five seconds if it’s too big. With this one, you find out after it’s on your putter.
And be honest with yourself about what a grip can do. It can make your hands quieter. It can’t rebuild a stroke that’s breaking down. If your putting falls apart under pressure, try the Reflex, but don’t expect a $35 grip to be the whole answer.
Also, P2 doesn’t list a warranty anywhere on the product page. On a $35 grip that’s not a dealbreaker, but I’d like to see it.
If you want something you can hold first at the same price, a SuperStroke Zenergy or Golf Pride Zero Taper is sitting on the wall at most golf shops. You just won’t get the off-center shaft.
Who It’s For
Buy it if:
- Your wrists break down over short putts and you want the grip to quiet them.
- You’ve got bigger hands and want a grip that fills them completely.
- You want to try P2’s off-center shaft in its biggest, roundest shape.
- Your putter feels a little head heavy and you don’t mind adding weight up top.
Skip it if:
- You have small hands. Start with the React Tour or the Aware Tour.
- You want to hold the grip in a store before you buy it.
- You love a light grip and the way your putter feels with it right now.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are fat or skinny putter grips better?
Neither one is better for everybody. A fat grip like the Reflex fills your palms and makes it harder for your wrists to flip the face. A skinny grip gives you more feel in your fingers, which works if your hands are already quiet. If you fight your hands, go bigger.
Is the P2 Reflex Tour too big for small hands?
For a lot of golfers with small hands, yes. It’s the biggest grip P2 makes, so your fingers may not feel connected to it at all. Look at the React Tour or the Aware Tour instead, and run them through P2’s comparison tool against a grip you already know.
How much does the P2 Reflex Tour weigh?
77 grams, give or take 2. That’s a lot lighter than the original Reflex from 2017, which weighed 182 grams, but it’s still one of the heavier P2 grips.
Where can I buy the P2 Reflex Tour in the US?
Direct from P2 at p2grips.com for $34.99. No major US golf chain carries it right now, so plan on ordering it and having your local shop install it.
