The Golf Pride MCC Plus4 (New Decade® MultiCompound) is the evolution of one of golf's most trusted hybrid grip families, and the #1 hybrid grip on Tour. It fuses two high-performance materials into a single grip — exclusive Brushed Cotton Cord (BCT®) in the upper hand for firm, all-weather control, and a proprietary soft rubber compound in the lower hand for responsive feel and feedback. The Plus4 design takes inspiration directly from Tour players who build up their lower hand with extra tape layers, delivering that same larger-diameter feel straight out of the box. Whether you play in sunshine, rain, or humidity, this grip is engineered to keep you connected to your club from the first tee to the final green.
The Golf Pride MCC Plus4 is built around a dual-material philosophy: the right compound for each hand, in exactly the right place. The upper hand zone features the exclusive Brushed Cotton Cord material, which weaves moisture-wicking cotton fibers directly into a soft rubber matrix — creating a surface that channels away sweat and rain while maintaining a firm, consistent grip on the club. The lower hand is wrapped in a separate, softer rubber compound that Golf Pride developed specifically for the MCC Plus4, delivering a cushioned, tactile feel quite different from the firmer cord above. This material separation means your gloved hand gets maximum traction and weather resistance, while your bare hand gets softness and responsiveness — the ideal combination for confident ball-striking from tee to green.
The defining innovation of this grip is the Plus4 lower hand geometry. Golf Pride engineers studied how Tour professionals build up the lower portion of their grips with extra tape wraps — a common practice to reduce grip pressure and unlock a freer, more powerful swing. The MCC Plus4 replicates this effect at the manufacturing level, providing a 4.6% larger outer diameter in the lower hand compared to the original MCC grip. This reduced taper profile directly discourages over-gripping, lowers tension in the hands and forearms, and promotes a smoother tempo throughout the swing. The result is a measurable increase in swing fluidity and clubhead speed — without any tape build-up required at installation.
Golf Pride's Brushed Cotton Cord technology is one of the most recognizable features in the MCC family, and the MCC Plus4 benefits from its most refined iteration yet. In the upper hand section, soft cotton fibers are integrated directly into the rubber compound during manufacturing, creating a cord texture that is softer than traditional wire cord yet far more aggressive than plain rubber. This construction actively wicks moisture away from the gloved hand, maintaining traction even in wet or humid conditions. The cord also adds downswing stability — as grip pressure increases naturally on the downswing, the BCT surface provides extra resistance to club rotation, promoting a square clubface at impact. For golfers who play in variable climates, or who tend to have sweaty hands, the BCT upper hand is a significant performance advantage.
Surface texture plays a critical role in grip-to-hand connection, and the MCC Plus4 addresses this with a dual-texture approach. Across the full length of the grip, a pebbled surface pattern provides consistent baseline traction. Strategically placed plus-sign (+) patterns add a second layer of mechanical engagement between your hands and the grip material, increasing the effective surface area in contact with your palms and fingers. Additionally, new micro-texture zones in the upper hand compound work alongside the BCT cord to maximize stability during the downswing — the phase of the swing where grip integrity matters most. Together, these surface features ensure that the MCC Plus4 stays securely in your hands through all shot types, from full driver swings to delicate approach shots.
One of the key improvements in the MCC Plus4 over its predecessor is the updated rubber compound formulation used throughout the lower hand. This new softer compound not only improves the tactile feel of the grip but also does a better job of absorbing unwanted vibration that travels up the shaft at impact. On off-center strikes — the ones that can sting or feel jarring — the MCC Plus4's lower hand compound dampens the feedback, making the grip more forgiving and comfortable over a full round of golf. This is particularly beneficial for golfers who play high volumes of rounds, or who are sensitive to impact vibration. The result is a grip that communicates ball-strike quality without punishing your hands on mis-hits.
The MCC family is the #1 hybrid grip on Tour, and the MCC Plus4 continues that legacy with enhancements born directly from Tour player feedback. Over 80% of global Tour professionals use Golf Pride grips, making the brand the most trusted name in grip performance at the highest level. The Plus4 technology was developed after Golf Pride observed that more than 70% of Tour players build up their grips in the lower hand — clearly a preference that delivers real results. By engineering this preference into a standard production grip, Golf Pride brings Tour-level grip geometry to every golfer who picks up an MCC Plus4. This is not a marketing claim but a measurable design decision backed by decades of Tour collaboration and real-world performance data.
