Replacing grips

[Crow]

Got about 40 to do on various 1970s clubs. Getting the original grips off them can be a mammoth task. Putting new ones on is a comparative doddle.

Fossilised Victory green grips, the work of the devil.

Just put 8 midsize grips on some graphite shafted XX10 irons for a mate. Easy job. Easier than raking up all the sycamore leaves in the garden.

Never had a problem with removing the grips, Stanley knife with a hooked blade. Old grip tape is another problem

What a coincidence!

Moments ago I bought 13 grips including knife, tapes and solution for less than £15 including postage. One of my old sets is going to look very nice indeed.

Brown paper and pitch? A very smelly job with the heat gun. Best done outdoors.

I once changed some grips for a buddy. Someone had used duct tape to build up the previous grips - that was a messy challenge.
