Lamkin Tops $300K in Prostate Cancer Donations
With September designated as Prostate Cancer Awareness month, Lamkin Corporation was particularly pleased to have been recognized by the Prostate Cancer Foundation for its efforts in the ‘Grips for Life’ program, which recently topped $322,000 in donations to their research for treatments and cures.

A world leader in golf grip innovation, Lamkin has been devoted to advancing the game of golf for more than 80 years but, more importantly, Lamkin is devoted to golfers. Lamkin first unveiled the company’s goal of raising one million dollars in partnership with Arnold Palmer and the Prostate Cancer Foundation two years ago. In the Grips to Life program, Lamkin donates a portion of the proceeds from domestic Lamkin-branded grip sales to help fund prostate cancer research.

Lamkin’s New Initiative Reaches Out to Retailers
America’s oldest and most innovative grip manufacturer, Lamkin recently conducted an all-new ‘customer-first’ initiative and the detailed feedback is more closely aligning the company’s products and service programs with the needs of green grass and off-course retailers as well as custom clubmakers.

As part of the program, Lamkin worked with more than 15,000 golf retailers and professional clubmakers on topics, such as regripping practices, grip sales, customers feedback, inventory, distribution services and many other issues, which Lamkin considers essential in providing the industry’s finest customer service and highest quality grips.

Few grip models survive the test of time and the trials on tour, but the Lamkin Crossline Series has exceeded all expectations and proven itself as one of the most enduring grip designs in the history of the game. The Crossline will soon be celebrating its 10th anniversary, and not only is the grip still popular on pro tours around the world, the Crossline continues to record wins almost every week.

“For more than eight decades, Lamkin Corporation has engineered golf grips with materials that provide greater stability, traction and comfort in designs that are truly innovative to the game of golf,” says Bob Lamkin, president and CEO of the Lamkin Corporation. "And its because of these performance enhancing features that some of the best players in the world continue to play and win tournaments with the Crossline and other Lamkin grips."
