CHANGING HOW I REGRIP CLUBS / Why You Should Too

Over the last few months I have changed how I regrip all golf clubs. My new method I believe is both better and faster than the traditional method we have all been using to install golf grips. In this video I show you what changes I've made and why I changed.

I am reticent to use less solvent. I've destroyed grips the first time I tried it myself and vowed that more solvent is better and makes the job easier Just my opinion

[@ClovisGeneral]

Completely agree with all your tips. Been doing these for years and it’s way less messy. Thanks for validating this!

[@timingram288]

Simple tips but worth changing to this approach. Can't wait to try out on my next re-grip. Really enjoy your channel.

[@garyhovey9305]

Great tip on the solvent, totally using that method from now on

[@k.b.3832]

Makes sense and I’ll be using this method. Thanks 👍

[@stephendibari5010]

Great tip on not wrapping the tape over the butt end. Will do this next time I regrip! I like that GolfWorks gripping station, like to buy one someday. I have the discontinued portable gripping station that’s a tray which attaches to a vice but I use it on a Craftsman portable work bench that closes like a vice.

[@MrWkendwarrior]

Excellent new ideas! Much more efficient regripping process….speaking as a retired Process Engineer. Well done sir!

[@Matthew-of9sp]

I have always done it the way the first two tips are described, but tip 3 is a good one as well. 👏

[@jamesbrewster733]

You have the best job in the world. I would love to do what you do. Awesome tips

[@Daniel-36]

I work in a pro shop and my boss (the pro) was telling me how to avoid the solvent spray on my clothes, now I know what he was talking about and will make sure to do it in the future. Thanks for the video

[@shamblerockshamblerock6985]

Good video. I thought I was alone regarding the venting issue and I too discovered the solvent didnt dry when tape sealed the butt end. Also you can get more back pressure and create more problems when putting on long putter grips. So I just tape and seal the butt then tale a loft tool and punch a hole in the tape in a split second.

[@willdeit6057]

Great tips AJ

[@goje_022]

Awesome video as always! I do a very similar process just using the HF100 spray to reduce the required lubricant as much as possible 👌

[@graceland75]

Great tips, I will change to these methods as well. Thank you 👍

[@flippperboy]

Great tips. Thanks

[@gtplumbing2004]

I love it; I built a solvent tube with a cap. I dip the shaft in the tube and slide my grip on it. I have it mounted to a bucket for excess dripping.

[@spennce]

You always have good advice. Thanks!

[@jeffparish7987]

I watched your video about blowing grips on (and off) with air. Started doing that and never looked back. Absolutely the best method in my opinion.

[@glenock766]

I use a spray bottle that holds my solvent. Just spray butt end and couple sprays inside grip and good to go. Eliminates need for a drip tray as well not having space inside home

[@iainmmorrison1]

Same here, quick spray on the tape, two squirts inside the grip and slide on. Much less solvent, less mess, less time.

[@19rosscoe61]

I use an even more efficient way to change grips. I cut the old ones off, then put the club in a vise and I have a tool that connects to my air compressor and the hole at the end of the grip goes into the port where air is expelled. You start the grip on the shaft, press the button and as air fills the shaft and the grip, the grip gets wider and slides right on. Also easy to twist/align. And there are two other benefits: 1 the grip does not slip and 2 you can switch grips easily at any time without damage to the grip. I bought some Pure grips years ago that came with this tool and have been using it ever since. Takes less than a minute to change a grip.

[@stevecrist4902]

Good video - always helpful. Call me old school but I still prefer sealing off the end of the shaft. This keeps any moisture (rust?) getting in when I wash off my grips. As to solvent spurt, I simply drape a small rag over the grip end during installation. Not exactly elegant but I'm not a business and only re-grip about once a year.

[@jamesmc81]

It also stops moisture getting out. The paper isn't water proof. I've been putting grips on like this for years. Never got debris or rust.

[@gerrymorcom5001]

Using 1/4” tape to overlap the shaft helps prevent the butt end of the shaft from slicing thru the butt end of the grip.

[@jamesmc81]

@gerrymorcom5001 true. I've Done that once too. But I had tapped the traditional way. Just smashed it to hard. I'm all graphite in the bag now anyways.

[@The00boxster]

I have to say I’ve been working on clubs for almost 50 years and have found that clubs I’ve regripped that someone had twisted the tape and closed the end almost always had rust on the tape and butt of the shaft. I leave about 1/8” overhang, just enough to allow the grip to easily slide on.

[@joshuahanson8543]

I always wondered why I’d heard the suggestion to seal the end of the shaft with the tape. I’ve used your new method from the get go haha. 🤙 I’ve also had the experience of having to clean some rust out of a few shafts i regripped, that were tape sealed from the previous grip job. Even if it did happen, you’d rather have dirt get into your shaft than rust.

[@bowl816]

Good news, I have regrouped a bunch of clubs and this is what I was doing, the shorter amount of tape. I did learn an easier way to remove the plastic on grips that have it. I tried using the disposable gloves to keep the solvent off my hands. I still use plenty of solvent to get the grip on and drench the shaft.

[@cloud4731]

good tip as always.

[@jzmouse8842]

Excellent..thanks

[@davidaldrich3488]

Very nice…… will do all in the future…. Ty

[@beaugy99]

Enjoyed your videos. Here’s a tip I wish you had covered. Maybe I missed it. Be EXTREMELY careful with graphite shafts. I was using a vice and one of those hard rubber shaft holders and tightened to prevent the club turning and I heard a “snap”. Yep. Put a nice hairline fracture in the shaft. To prevent this, obviously don’t over tighten, but also place the rubber vice on the thickest part of the shaft closest to the grip. Also, I first learned using WD40 instead of “golf club solvent”. I haven’t checked but I think it’s much cheaper and works great.

[@yvonmasse]

Hi.Just clean your shaft from everythings from the old grip and use an air compressor in the little hole of your grip and give a little pressure and it will go in easily.The most important thing is you dont need any new tape at all.the grip stick to the clean shaft like if you would add a double face tape.No more tape ever.No mess with the liquid and etc... Yvon Masse

[@Omnis2]

I got a grip replacement kit that was bundled for free with my GP grips from an online retailer. It was some pre-cut tapes, a little bottle of solvent with a push-button pump sprayer, and a vise clamp shaft holder. The instructions specifically say to mist the tape and not pour or soak it. I put a few sprays in the grip, spun and shook it up, then about 4 sprays on the shaft to moisten the tape, top and bottom front and back. The grips just slide on no big deal. If your grips have a logo on the backside you just line it up with the shaft logo/lettering and you're pretty much bang on straight every time. Only a little solvent dribbled out the front as you push the grip on. No need for all these crazy stations, you can do it over a sink with the clubhead between your thighs. Rubber is easy. EVA-based grips like Jumbomax are a royal pain in the ass though.

[@themackguyverchannel7713]

I have regripped a lot of old clubs. I have seen shafts start to rust from being in the bag and water (rain) going to the bottom and the clubs sitting in there.

[@charlesharper7002]

I liked the information. Undecided if I’ll use this or masking tale with air compressor.

[@jamesmc81]

I only use compressed air to demo/test grips. I find it's not secure. I use tape and solvent after I have tested grips

[@Paul-viking]

Makes a lot of sense to streamline the gripping process.

[@sloswingspeed9535]

I use build up non dble sided tape plus a 1-2” piece on the butt. Spray solvent on just the dble sided. The blow on. Except for GP Align grips. Dble sided a must. Std slide on .

[@papab3272]

I use mineral spirits in a chemical resistant spray bottle. A few squirts down the grip mists the inside and then you just pour it out of the grip onto the tape. No solvent touches your hands and you use way less of it so it's more economical and the grips dry faster.

[@darrinlygrisse5287]

I like to add a little solvent to get it started, then finish with air, no solvent on the tape.

[@robertjohnsonii1765]

Great video, wishing you a happy and prosperous new year. I wonder if not capping off the shaft with tape also gives a little more feel to the shafts 🤔. Any tips for regripping and getting any alignment aids on the grips perfectly aligned with the leading edge?

[@EFGMC]

I always eyeball it. My gripping station is angled into a corner so I can use the wall to ensure the club face is straight. Then I just align the grip off that face position.

[@phillong1862]

Hi could you put out a video on extending a set of irons? Great content on re-gripping 👍

[@3n2a2]

I have always used water based tape and a little dishsoap suds. No chemical issues. Last me hundreds of rounds with no issues.

[@kourt2469]

I use air but also use tape and solvent. Tape like normal but then spray jist a tiny bit of solvent inside the grip, drain the excess into the solvent bottle, then blow on with air. Doing this way you only need to very small amount of solvent and grips dry super fast.

[@16pennynails]

I always poke a hole in the back of the tape with a tee, I think I learned that from Golfsmith years ago. I was using 3/4 inch spiral double sided tape then.

[@rhythmicdisciple7045]

I actually think this is the best of both worlds!

[@powpowpro]

When regripping several sets of clubs one after another, the technique of banging the butt of the grip on the bench to remove the plastic becomes a problem. My hand would be sore at the end of the day from banging it. I found that a better technique is to grab the plastic section with both hands and twist in opposite directions as if you are ringing water out of a towel. This takes the plastic off just as fast or faster with no banging.

[@petegalindez9961]

I haven’t used grip solvent in about 5 years now…I blow all my grips on and off with a compressor…much more efficient, cheaper, and allows me to easily swap out my grips depending on conditions…e.g., I’ll use softer grips in the winter than the summer, and I’ll use one in the summer that deal with sweat better…then, I just swap out grips without losing a grip…

[@mikehoffman7131]

AJ, I personally use air for all my clubs but for anyone that I do regrippings for I use the solvent method. Not sure why, i've never had a failure with the air method, but just stick with the old school is best mentality for other peoples grips. What are your thoughts? I know you've used air as well in the videos, but just wondering as a general "what do you think" type thing. Happy New Year, keep up the great work and content!

[@hjlamb]

It's funny that you mention that. I regripped my set of PXG clubs last year that still had the original grip on them from the factory. All of the factory installed grips (Golf Pride MCC) were applied using only masking tape. I never had an issue with them over 2 seasons and 60+ rounds - that's playing in the south (Atlanta) and I sweat a lot and have a relatively high swing speed (7 iron is about 94 mph). After seeing how well the masking tape performed, I'll never use solvent again. Just too many benefits to using masking tape and air (cheaper, easier to remove/adjust, no solvent, etc.).

[@EFGMC]

Air installed grips can slip a little over time. Not an issue if you have the air compressor or inflator to straighten them back out, but if it's for other people I only use air with certain grips or if they request it.

[@toddblake5003]

Good tips! I regrip quite often as I rarely wear a glove and absolutely love the feel of a good grip. With the grip materials and patterns these days, I sometimes wonder just how necessary a glove really is or is it more of a habit or something people automatically think is a must.

[@BH-gh6qm]

yeaaa no glove crew

[@jamesmc81]

Yup. Find a grip you like and you don't need a glove. If anything, recent pressure sensor and EMG studies from tony Luczak would suggest the right hand runs the show. A need for extra left hand grip could be a sign of a technical fault.

[@krusher74]

I started playing 5 years ago and and started with a glove, i found after a few round that when i took it off to putt i forgot to put it back on again and did not realize till the end of the round that it was in my pocket, I use golf pride CP2 grip and hardly ever play in rain, I find a glove completely unneeded. have not used one the last 4 and a half years.

[@user-nu7mw9dp2f]

Enjoy your channel and advice very much. Can you tell me if you have produced a video or have plans to, on replacing a two grip handle long putter grip. I need to replace my current two-piece grip and are not exactly sure of the best process. Thank you in advance for your consideration.

[@EFGMC]

I have not but the method I use is to take a single very long piece of grip tape and run it the full length of where the 2 grip pieces will sit. Mark it with Sharpie where you want the lower one to sit. Use plenty of solvent and side the lower grip down into place followed by the top grip. Once dry, go back and cut away the extra tape between the 2 grips.

[@vrivas2186]

Great videos, totally new to this. I see the tape that you use is sticky on the side you place on the club but is the other side activated by the solvent or is there a layer you peel off and then apply solvent?

[@vrivas2186]

Never mind just saw your other video where you explained it.

[@themackguyverchannel7713]

You inspired me to build clubs. Why not do a video on tapping and rethreading the bottom of a wood like a seven word that does not have adjustable screw weights in the back this would be a nice way to add weight to the bottom and back of a wood without using lead tape

In decades, I’ve never taped a grip, always alcohol & air compressor. Never had one come off. 😮

[@andrewborbas9356]

Hi! Great videos. I am a clubfitter/repairer from BC, Canada and have been in business since 2005 after attending Golfsmiths Training Facility in Austin, Texas for a week. I typically use the old tried/true method of grip removal/install cuz when i tried using compressed air to remove grips, quite often the grip blew apart! I watched both this video and the one comparing old tried/true method vs using compressed air method. Do u have a video where u specifically discuss what kind of compressor (I think u said 60 psi is needed) + attachment to compressor and tip to insert in grips butt end? I am very curious re ur info re taping end of shaft? It seems to me that u are giving conflicting info in that 1/ if u completely close off the end, it is better so that nothing incl rain/debris gets into the shaft to possibly cause corrosion w.r.t steel shafts vs 2/ if u leave a small hole for airflow, then not only will rain get in there but will u not also be shoving some grip solvent down the shaft? i.e. potential for corrosion. I am by no means an expert and am always willing to learn so may, once u provide some info re compressor/attachment etc the compressor method to install/remove grips. I will be warching more of your videos.......thanks and have a wonderful day!

[@bigtoon8300]

60 psi is why you're blowing up grips. It doesn't take much pressure at all, maybe 15-20 psi. And there are 10,000 videos on this, find one and watch it

I always thought it was to keep solvent from going down the shaft and sitting against the epoxy holding the head on?

[@jaythepaintmananderson2334]

Good news ! Star is developing a textured grip for this year.

[@peircet3]

How do you determine what is straight as far as aligning the slash on the grip with the golf head? Just had some done for the first time and it seems like they are lined up with more of a closed face than the stock grips were, one is way off? I check my face at setup so I can adjust, but I'm OCD and it's bugging me. LOL.

[@frankengolfer1252]

With your favorite grip and mine-Pure- no longer being made, which grips do you still plan to install with air?

[@EFGMC]

Will be switching to Star Grips for the studio. Any softer rubber grips work well. Tour Velvet 360, Tour Wraps, etc.

[@pickitupgolf276]

Maybe it doesn't rain where you are, but an open end in the butt, and a wet bag, seems like an easy way to let moisture wick into the shaft and create that corrosion you reckon leaving the end open will prevent.

[@nickhulsing9764]

So do you prefer solvent versus an air compressor?

[@EFGMC]

Depends on the grip. Soft rubber grips are great with air. Harder, corded, Winn style, or grips with reminder ribs, I usually stick with solvent.

[@macgriffiths9241]

This isn't a comment on this video, rather a question on one of your videos from 4 years ago I have just watched re is there a difference in shortening a shaft or gripping down, if you went along the road of cutting down would this alter the flex of the shaft ?

[@EFGMC]

Short answer is not much. Long answer is it's complicated. If you butt cut the shaft, the frequency of the shaft will go up. However this is misleading because you are actually cutting away the stiffest portion of the shaft so the remaining area is actually softer. That said, the actual amount of change with most butt cutting will be too small to worry about.

[@macgriffiths9241]

Thanks

[@davidweiss3367]
