"Regrip twice a year" the best I can do is once every 7 years
Lol same. I normally end up getting new clubs before I regrip lol
I do once a season🤷🏻♂️
I think it was directed towards the people that play every day haha
Yeah twice a year is a bit much.
@@youllgetit1803 I feel like if you play everyday you probably can afford someone to do this for you 😅
I found a much easier way to regrip my clubs. I showed the wife how do one. Then left her to do the other 12 while I went for a few beers with my mates. Came home and she done a great job.
You sound like a misogynistic idiot.
@Anth 92 you're a moron and a shit head. Have fun you hick
Allan Benoit fuck off allan. Go check
up on your husband
@john h: Your pro did it. In 5 minutes: the rest of the time your wife had some fun.
Had me in the first half not gonna lie
Just re gripped one of my hybrids after watching your video…super easy. Thank you! I just found a new side gig 🤣. Can’t believe I’ve been paying someone to do this for me.
right I just started to research after I took club to Golf galaxy and they gave me wrong club. Then another time the guy didnt add 2 pieces of tape. Just tire dof getting bad work.. so I want to learn to do it myself..and yes this is EASY! No need to pay someone or wait 2-3 days for it do be done.
Use a vise with a rubber shaft holder. Also a paint roller pan works well as a catch pan for grip solvent. Only use that flat blade on steel shafts all other shafts use the hook blade so you don't cut the shaft.
Know this an old video, but came acrosd it last week. Because of you i bought a dozen grips with solution etc and for the 1st time in playing for 40 years i changed all 12 grips tonight. I am well pleased. Thank you. Didnt realise it was so easy untill i watched you.
I regrip my own clubs, my wife would kill me if i did it on the dining table and use her pan. I watch you stuff all the time you crack me up especially when you fell in the pool. Keep up the good work.
Thanks, glad to keep you entertained.
Thanks for the confidence to try this! After the learning curve on the first one, the next club was literally a 5 minute job. Never would've tried this without your vid!
Thanks for the video man! I thought it would be a huge pain in the ass, after watching your video it literally took me 5 mins to regroup my driver. Not all heroes wear capes!
Also when you were lining up that other grip next to the one that you’ve just installed, make sure they are the same length. Sometimes when you slide a new grip on you can end up stretching it beyond its intended length which also tends to make the grip thinner, not to mention the fact that aesthetically you would have grips of different lengths when your set is done
Great tip, it did seem to stretch a bit when he got it all the way on.
Mark the original grip and the centre line with a marker too. Makes it much easier when you put the new one on.
I've been doing my own clubs for years. I like using the solvent out of a spray bottle. It uses less solvent and makes less of a mess.
What solvent do you use? Im new to the sport and regripping clubs
@@nickrindlisbacher6553 Not who you responded to but I just use mineral spirits. you can pick some up at walmart or any hardware store.
@@RebelEdits sweet thank you
I came across your videos over the weekend,I did a regrip for the first time myself after having golf shops do it for me.What I noticed is how lazy they were.They had just added tape without removing the old stuff.Thanks for the video.
I hadn't done a regrip on clubs in over 20 years (hadn't played in that long). Tried to do it recently and the tape I used wasn't good and solvent was junk, so it got stuck. All that stuff matters. Got a different kind and it was easy! A paint pan for paint rollers, works well to catch the solvent.
If using a Stanley knife on a carbon fiber shaft, make sure you don't cut into the shaft. Seen shafts snap because of this.
Its so easy to do this. Just need a couple tips. First. I mark where the old grips end with a piece of tape and mark the center point. When you install the new ones, you know exactly where to stop. A hook knife is best, cause it keeps you from scoring the graphits shaft, which could end up failing. I use a blow dryer, not a heat gun, to remove old tape. Peels right off and doesnt overheat the shaft. Thats another problem. I see a lot of folks complain that its hard to get the grips to slide on. Use a lot of solvent. Drip pan salvages it. Lots on the tape, lots in the grip. Then pour the solvent in the grip and after, pour that on the tape also. Grips, even tight ones, slide right on, no problem. Not using enough will ensure that the adhesive isnt softened enough and you will waste a grip. Dead simple.
Oh yeah. Get a golf shaft rubber vise clamp. Makes things much easier. You need a vise too. Then, you can just pull the hook blade through the grip with ease.
If you have a small compressor it's very easy to blow the grips off by blasting air into the top
Wait, what? Do you mean it makes it easier to pull the grip off? Or, does the air actually cause the grip to slide off without having to pull on it?
I started doing my grips with the air compressor it is so easy and the clubs are usable as soon as you are done. once you start this way the grips go on and off within minutes and there is no need for any tape or solvent. the compressor blows up the grip and it slides right off. if you need to adjust them just put more air into it and it moves easy. It takes me about 20 minutes to my whole set of club
s now.
This is like regripping with Geoff goldblum 😅.awesome
That's what I was missing! I was like, this guy reminds me of someone!! It's Goldblum!
Just used these instructions to re-grip three clubs on my own. Peeled off at least three layers of tape from other re-grip jobs at my club. I feel like a real man.
Thanks man this helped. Plus I used a vice which made installation easier.
Everybody watching and sweating as he introduces the products needed hoping they have all that is needed to do this project.
then me confirming to myself "yeah I'll pay $10 per club instead"
Quick tip, i use a piece of masking tape around the shaft just below the grip your taking off and mark the align centre of the grip so when you put on the new grip you can align the new grip with that mark on the tape. To remove the old double stick tape heat with a hair dryer to soften and it peels of easy. I have also used WD40 but leave it over night to dry.
I wish I had a work bench with a large vise. It will make work much easier.
Hey bro I learned how to do this by your videos I now have done 12 sets for my kids club, at the park thank you very much.
Great. Now I have to find videos on choosing golf grips.
Your video saved me once again, thanks. I remember the first time I saw it, I fast-forwarded over the part where you remove the outer layer of the tape, which I found was a critical step 😀
I'm definitely in favor of golfers regripping their own clubs - at least with the frequency, you suggest. But, doing it at the dining table is a bad idea. A vice of almost any kind would have made the job sooooooo much easier and faster. And if you or your fans have an air compressor to "blow" the grips on,, the job becomes even easier, by an order of magnitude.
One last thing: If people are actually going to use your method, they should be strongly advised to KEEP THAT GRIP MOVING once they start sliding it on. Stopping before the grip is seated -especially if they don't use plenty of solvent - will result in the grip getting stuck, and probably requiring that that brand new grip be cut off!
Depends on the tape and solvent. I've only had issues with grips getting stuck using mineral spirits. I haven't had any problems with Brampton solvent.
The best tip of the video-" try not to hurt yourself",,,; brilliant!
Thanks man! Just took an inch off my driver- I'm short- and regripped it. I don't know how much faster I'm swinging it now but it's definitely faster. The sound it makes through the air is noticeably higher pitched. I'll find out tomorrow morning!
Thank you for the how too.
You are like MacGyver meets Seinfeld.
Love it.
Matt.... I really have no clue why ive been getting my clubs regripped by a golf outlet...It looks so so easy!..Thanks for showing us and keep up the good work.
That did not look easy lol.
@@connornichols2759 Yeah especially if someone had never gripped a club before and didn't have an actual gripping station or shaft clamp at the very least. I can guarantee it would take them several hours to get through a set, if at all.
Great lol I'm about go do my old Nike blades in the garage. Can't wait to toss my stickum
The store here charges 2 dollars per club so I'll just give them the money 😋
Holy shite you would rather spend probably as much money on solvent and tape and time than drop your clubs off go have lunch and pick them up?
To show others this can be done at the kitchen table without a vise or ginormous workshop loaded with tools… is key! It’s as simple as doing it at the kitchen table! (And, the performance return is huge!)
Great video. Did not realize it was that easy to re-grip. I just bought new clubs and after a few rounds, realized I need the oversize grips. Getting alot of thumb and hand pain with the standard size.
Some of my clubs still have grips from the 90s
Can’t believe you haven’t played 40 rounds in 30 years...
@@TheCharlielennon 150 rounds in 5 years..
Like your scores lol
Hey Shorgame - I got a set of grips from guy that used air to change grips - I got a small little air compressor from wally marts for about 30$ and have been changing grips in less than a minute(almost all the time) - No chemicals and they are ready to go instantly - plus I can take them off and use them on another club if I change the lineup - If you change the grips twice a year this is an ideal setup!
Best part of the video is the end where you involve your daughter in the process. Well done Dad! Great video. Thanks for the help.
Love the CaddyShack tee-shirt.
good stuff Matt! Appreciate you always bringing some good golf value!
Use that tape removal too as well as a hook blade. I can strip a club and the tape in a minute. Use a vice too makes it much easier.
i just changed my putter grip thanks to this, did the method with so little solvant by just draining the solvant you put inside the grip like he did ! very effective thanks !
I forgot to put solvent on the tape and had to start over. Thanks for the instructions. .... very helpful.
Thanks for this tutorial mate. I thought it was more complicated but you made it look super easy!
I think what you called a hook grip is actually a grooved sharpener, I have the same one
The green handle tool is a groove enlarger not a hook blade knife to cut grips! Get a workbench with a vise. Also use a cheap plastic paint tray to catch solvent that is reusable.
I’m a big time do it yourselfer. But I have never seen a more compelling video to have a professional do it instead.
Lamkin Z5s arriving today. I usually pay local shop to regrip my clubs, going to give it a shot over the weekend. Thanks for the great video!!!
Great video, exactly what I was looking for.
always take your stance with the club to ensure final proper alignment, use a bigger hook exacto blade, deporting solvent from the butt end was genius, loved having a helper at the end!
I think somewhere in Germany they invented this thing called a vice last year
Hi Matt - I have to say yet another not only entertaining video but also one that gave me confidence to change my grips myself. Once you've done one its easy,
and you save money and time- boom.
God bless you. Just got myself an old golf set so I need to change some of the grips
Is ok to skip the taking of the old tape off.?
I was going to ask the same question! Unless the tape is frayed or ripped, it looks to me like you could use the tape that's already on there!
Done this twice now. Very simple project, just don't be in a hurry. By the way love your shirt...lol
The Sonar Plus Grips are the Best lamkin grips. Ihave them on all my clubs. TS1 are good but the Sonar are better feeling grips.
I will do it myself this time after seeing your video. So easy. Better than paying $10 a pop for sure. Thanks!!!
You need to get all of the old tape off! Hint to those trying this for the first time: Don't skimp on the amount of solvent. If the tape is not saturated, you'll have a lot of trouble getting the new grip on. And don't use a dull knife! Get a hook knife at a hardware store. They're cheap, and won't scratch the shaft.
This is super EASY and really fun everyone should do this with their very expensive golf clubs right away. HAVE FUN!
Watching him remove the first grip and tape and saying this is an easy project, while I’m thinking that doing that 13 times is about the worst way I can picture spending a Saturday.
Agreed. I think it's about $5 a club to drop off at Dick's. Good to see how it's done but well worth the money to let someone else do it.
Also I cannot imagine doing this at my dining room table with lamps, pictures, walls, chairs nearby.....
Thought it was harder to put new rip on, so I just kept the old ones on the shaft. Will be buying new grips and change them thi weekend. Thanks for the tutorial.
Thanks alot for the great guide! Just regripped my sons clubs with ease while watching this 😀
Can’t believe you didn’t use a vise with a golf shaft adapter. Makes all of this a lot easier.
Pro tip on how I do it...They make a fitting that fits in your vise (get a vise) it comes with most grip kits , along with solvent. Blow air into the end hole with your compressor (Get a compressor) reuse the old tape, don't bother taking it off until its shredded. Old grip off , add solvent to shaft , work an inch of the new grip on , hold grip at shaft with one hand , blow air in hole on new grip while pulling with other hand...It slides on...Works even better with two people. My brother and have been changing our grips this way for years, neither of us has ever had one come off. Its so easy to do you can experiment with a few clubs at a time , and see for yourself, old tape left on works as well as new tape. Scraping that off is a pain.
FYI.. Splashing mineral spirits on a wood table makes the wifey hate golf.
Yes it does. Not my normal place to change grips but the wind was so bad outside I had to do it there.
not mineral spirits though, dunno what they use but it is quite harmless to everything
He Can’t wait til she goes to fry some eggs lmfao
I still have the original grips on my titleist DTR's . Bought them used in 1993, they really need to be re-gripped!
I practice almost daily and need to change them about twice a year.. tried the Winn grips and they were so soft I needed to change them after about 3 months .. yes, I do have quite a strong grip
A few other tips:
1. Use a paint roller tray to catch the re-grip solution, keep marital peace (in case she finds out you used her ovenware).
2. Use a putty knife to remove the old grip tape, esp on carbon shafts; a box cutter will scratch your graphite shafts.
3. Use Goo Gone to finally clean off the shafts, the remaining grip tape and glue will come off "like butter".
4. If you have a bench clamp buy the little rubber insert to get a nice positive grip on the shaft. Just makes life a bit easier.
Enjoy, as you can see it's not that hard to do.
Thank you for this. I'm going to replace my boyfriend's grips for his birthday. Hopefully I don't eff it up haha.
That’s awesome. Did he appreciate it?
Played with the same grips since 1996. Finally doing this because my grip isn’t what it used to be.
Good one dude Ive learned to use my air compressor and blow them on and off so much easier no solvent needed ready to go soon as there on no waiting for solvent to dry. Use my heat gun for a min to help grip to stick to tape no grip turning. your welcome
Just did this with your help. Thanks so much for your help. Totally easy.
Make up a moxon clamp for a workbench. $40 and some plywood. Since it will rack for the changing diameter and hold it safely with the wood grip face no damage.
Now you can easily AND safely remove and replace. It’s a no brainer.
thank you very much Mr shoe game. i like your video clips and I watched many of them.
This is so easy to do.
I was going to Roger Dunn for so many years.
The part that took me the longest was removing the old grip tape.
The rest is a breeze!
Hairspray works well too instead of grip solvent... alot less mess too.
I really like your playing videos but this one is a disaster! First use a rubber shaft holder and a vise to hold the shaft. Next use a hook knife to slit the grip end to end. Use a tape remover tool to remove a line of tape. Then use a heat gun or hair dryer to heat up the tape. It usually comes off in one piece. Align the club toe up and add the tape. Put solvent into the grip. Close off both sides and get the entire inside of the grip wet. Pour the solvent from the grip on to the shaft and install the grip.
I like your vedio,really useful And full of fun.Thanks.
Nice easy quick, thank you so much for posting this, 12 more clubs and I'll be back out on the fairway
"... genesis compound, fingerprint technology, don't know what any of that means" Ha!
An option I find easier is to use a heat gun or blow dryer and heat up the old tape and it will peek off nicely. (tip...use tacky type gloves and you can just grab the tape while warm and it peels off even easier.) It will come off very easy and you don't have to worry about cutting your graphite shafts.
Yes just saw Golftown guy use torch to heat old tape and the curved tool shown in video. Had old tape off in 10 seconds. Would take me an hour to remove old tape on a set using a utility knife. Very tedious!
Love the vibe of each and every video! Favorite golf channel out there!
Love your videos, but this could be done much easier...
Vice from box store - $20 to $40 bucks
Rubber clamp from golf store - $5 bucks
New sharp, lol, hook blade from box store - 10 for $5 bucks
And I know you did a steel shaft... but it’s a not a good idea to use a regular blade on graphite shafts
Been doing my own grips nearly 50 years. I was hoping that there was a magical way you’d show us to remove especially old crusty tape and petrified rubber.
Compressed air method works ok but tape and solvent is more reassuring for me.
Great video.. Informative and entertaining..lol watched your video gave me the confidence to re grip my driver.. love my new grip and next on my list is do the rest of my drivers and irons!! Thanks again!
Thank you IMMENSLEY! Please keep maikng your videos love them all
Hilarious! You had me laughing. Great video. Thanks. I'm doing this to my clubs thanks to your instructions.
Thanks for this. Just did 2 clubs
You sound like your from Boston. Anyways second time watching this video and you are the man. Thanks for the laughs and knowledge. My wife still has no idea I use her pans 😂😂😂
To help with alignment - clubface square to any line on the grip, I put a magnetic stick onto the face.
Ty, always needed a lesson on regriping clubs ty
I have def found the best way to remove em is stick the nozzle of an air compressor down the hole on the grip and after a few short pumps it will pop right off.
If you have a air compressor you can blow air in the little hole on end and grip comes off real easy.
Great Tutorial. Learned a ton. Doesn’t mean I can do it. Taking my clubs to a pro to regrip! Lol, I know for sure I will mess up because I’m a very impatient person so $3 each is well worth it for me. Me gripping a golf club 🤦♂️ 😂
You made this look way too easy mate. Thank you !!
Quicker using an air pressure hose to remove and to affix new ones! Simple and quick!
I sorta wanted his wife to come home.
Thanx for the video. Our workload at our shop is getting busier from people watching this video.
You’re welcome
Yea about that. I’ve never replaced or had them replaced. Original that came with clubs still. I’ll gladly regroup them though.
Heat’s good to take old tape off (hair dryer/heat gun)
Well... I did it. 10 clubs and it took a couple hrs since it was the first time I've done it. Veerrrry difficult pushing the grips on if you don't completely prep the grips with solvent. I think since I had small tubes for each club.
One tip if you didn't mention, helps to dry hands completely after rubbing the shaft down with solvent.
Thanks Mr!
Good stuff! Nice and easy! Thank you!
Thanks. Are you doing a follow up video on how to refinish your kitchen table?
Thank You for this video. I followed your directions and was able to regrip a complete set.
Also, A cheap large turkey tin pan from the grocery store works great to catch the solvent in. Instead of your wife's good pans. I like to live. 🤣
