photo credit: andrea.pacelli To re-grip your golf clubs you will need the following: new grips, bench vice, rubber shaft holder, double sided grip tape, scissors, grip tape scraper, utility knife, grip solvent, container to catch solvent and a rag.
The steps to remove your grips are as follows: Remove the old grips and grip tape, clean off all residue, apply new grip tape, apply solvent to new grip and grip tape, push new grip over grip tape and check alignment.
Make sure that you choose grips that are the right size for your hands. Grips come in all sizes so choosing the proper grip, prior to installation, is very important.
Re-gripping may not be for everyone. It is not difficult, however it can be time consuming. The effort may well be worth the savings derived from doing the job yourself. For more information on re gripping go to www.about.com/golf.
