...you should order Tacki-mac Itomics. definitely no club turn with these grips. Only $3.59 a grip too. I'm not sure how long they last.. prolly not very long.. but I change grips every year so that's not an issue for me.

get a razor and cut the old ones off
peel the tape off
clean up the shafts
apply double sided tape
put mineral spirits inside the grip and pour over the tape
slide grip over tape
align
let dry

you're done.

I just take my clubs to a store to get them regripped, I don't want to run the chance of messing up, or I'll have my buddy do them but he lives in Ytown and I don't make it back home that many times in the summer because I stay in Cbus.

Golf Galaxy regrips clubs for like $2 a pop or something like that. Got my clubs regripped in Lamkin Crossline Standards last season. I think I paid around $65 or so for the grips and regripping by Golf Galaxy.

For me, these were the best all around grips. They feel the most comfortable in my hands. Going to get my driver wrapped soon.


Edit..by Zwicks directions I may have to try to regrip my clubs myself now. Although every year is way too much for me.

I used to work at a job where I had to re-grip golf clubs. If you follow Zwicks directions it's pretty much idiot proof. The only thing you have to worry about is getting the grip twisted, but you will have a couple minutes once you put them on to work with it to make sure it's straight. (it only really matters when you have putter grips like this that are flat on the sides.)

I simply fill a bucket with hot water and liquid dish soap. Let the grips sit in the soapy water for a bit and then towel dry them. Gives you a refreshed grip for a few rounds.

I should probably change grips here soon. My Winns are getting to about that point.

Too rich, I'll probably just get the tour wraps if I end up getting new grips.

I think I'm going to get a round in Wednesday depending on the weather. So that's nice.
