Sorry, I had just visited the website and did not find any reference to
their being PLP grips.

I thought I recalled a discussion on Towertalk a few years ago (couldn't
find it in the archive) where some folks were selling shorter grips that
were designed for utility pole use as guy grips ...   

I had e-mailed TT asking whether their grips were PLPs, but had no answer
as of last night.  In any case, it appears they'll be fine, so thanks all!
