Changing grips on golf clubs is not rocket science and you shouldn't be too afraid of it. With these tips, you can change the grips on your golf clubs in no time, saving you time and money.
1. Remove the old grips: Use a good removal tool or knife to remove the grip. A hooked-bladed carpet knife is a great choice for this.
2. Clean the club shaft: Carefully clean the shaft of the racket from old grip tape and adhesives.
3. Add double-sided tape: Apply double-sided grip tape to the shaft of the club along the length of the grip. Make sure the tape is applied evenly.
4. Attach the new grip: Soak the new grip in solvent and slide it onto the shaft. If you don't have a vise, you can support the head of the club against a corner to make installation easier. Make sure the grip is straight and firmly seated. NOTE! Use solvent sparingly, as this will make it much easier to push the grip into place.
5. Let the grip dry: Let the new grip dry for at least a few hours before using the racket.
Congratulations! You have successfully replaced the grip on your golf club and the games can continue again.
