How often do you re-grip

[Deleted member 21784]

Prob been done before but I am curious

how often do people get their clubs re-gripped?

Golf pride say every season or 40 rounds i read once.. which they seem to have got rid of on their website now..

every season seems excessive and 40 rounds sounds like some people on here would re grip every 2 months!

not a cheap process to do if you like the multi compound grips either

my oldest grip is 18 months, rest range 12-2 months

Feb 2019 im thinking for my next and then every 2 years

so what does everyone do?

Every couple of years, need doing now as a matter of fact

For me it's less the number of rounds and more the amount of practice

Eg hit a few hundred chips & pitches in a practice session but 1/10th that in a round (hopefully )

You know when you know.


There are a number of my clubs that need doing at the minute. Off the top of my head I know my 60 is well past needing a new grip. Its been in the bag 2 or 3 years and never been changed.

Every 12-15 months. Probably don't need doing that often but the wedges tend to feel worn after that time and so I get the whole set doen rather than having some old, some new.

When they stop being grippy. I've had my Cleveland irons for about 4 years and the grips are still great. I'm not going to change them just for the sake of it.

It will all depends on how often you play or use the club - I change mine on a yearly basis but I play 4 times a week roughly

That’s because there’s no wear in the correct areas :ears:

Your probably right😁. Alternatively I'm doing it right and everyone else is doing it wrong and it's costing you all a fortune in grips 😂💰😂.

I have never re-gripped my irons. Have had six sets in over 40 years. Clean them with hot water and fairy liquid and they are fine

Only clubs I have ever re-gripped are drivers and putters. Might be because I don't hit the practice ground much.

 

[ScienceBoy]

About 2-3 times, im not sergio but I have been known to slip once in a while.

 

[Robster59]

I'd say about once every couple of years but in reality I'd say when I think they need it. I regrip them all myself anyway, I find it quite therapeutic.

 

[mashleyR7]

every time I snap a shaft in anger I get it re gripped, so a fairly regular basis.

The amount of golf us retired gentlemen play it’s cheaper to buy new clubs :rofl:

 

[Deleted member 21784]

Least no1 has said every 40 rounds yet!

My 2 year ( I play once a week ish) seems a reasonable time frame

 

[xcore]

If I buy a second hand set of irons il put a fresh set of grips on, longest set iv owned was 7 months so not had to re-regrip

Ditto. Boiling hot water with washing up liquid and a scrubbing brush. Monthly on my driver, 3 wood and gap wedge (which get the most use)

 

[chrisd]

Didn't know you could change them ..... I've never had a set of clubs long enough 😁

 

[KenL]

Depends on the grips.

Ping grips on my i25 irons are over 2 years old and like new. I clean them every month or so with a brush and fairy liquid.

Putter, driver and wedges get done every year or so. I change my own grips so not too expensive

 

[Imurg]

I'd be amazed if anyone actually needed their grips changing before 2 years - they're either playing waaaaay too much, practicing waaaaay too much or squeezing the life out of them!
Another effort by a Marketing department to up sales...
Re-grip when they start to lose their, well, grip really....
If you clean them regularly they shouldn't lose that grip for at least 2 years...

Never had the need to change them, but only had the current irons two seasons and plenty of life left in them yet.
