Curious as to who has them and likes them compared to the other Lews handle. Really interested on reels that have it. Knobs look quit larger that what's on the older Team Lites.

I have Winn grips on a Kernan Custom rod and love them.

I don't think these guys understand that you are asking about the winn handles that are on a REEL, Not on a ROD

I'm open to all info. I intended for the reel , but put handle in title originally. Now changed that in description.

I played with the lews custom that had them and I didn't like them. Just didn't feel right and they weren't all that soft like they look

I have a Lews Mach 2 Speed Spin that comes with the Winn Dri-Tac knob. I love it, I really would like to replace all of my baitcast handle knobs with them. I don't own a rod with Winn components but have checked one out at Cabelas and they're pretty great too. I've used Dri-Tac grips for years on golf clubs and was excited to see them making grips for the fishing world, and now that I've tried them I don't think there is anything better out there.

I have them on 2 Team Lites. They are not at all bigger than the standard knobs and the grip is actually better.

I liked them when I got to use them. Planning to buy several here in the next two months.

I really like them. I thought about wrapping some of mine with the tape but didn't know how it would hold up. I thought about buying some of the lews with the winn grip but I have so many rods as it is.


Thanks, Billy

Lews is going to have several colors of these grips coming out this year I heard. Not sure if it will be just the grips or the whole handle with grips

I like the carbon handles with the combo of cork and EVA. Except when I break one. Don't know how I do it. I guess I'm clumsy with my left hand. I only break the reel handles on my left handed Team Pros.
