im no pro but i suggest you try taking off the old grip take before putting the new on. taking the old off wash the wood a bit, let it dry then put your new tape on ! :D
You'll need the following: - a Stanley knife - two-sided golf grip tape - the new grip - some golf grip thinner 1. Cut off the old grip with the knife (be careful) 2. Remove the tape that's underneath it and is on the shaft 3. Cut a piece of the new golf tape the length of the golf grip 4. Leaving a 1/4" of tape over the top of the shaft, wrap the tape around it 5. Peel off the outer layer of the two sided tape 6. Pour a little thinner on the tape and make sure it's all covered 7. Pour a little thinner in the golf grip. Stick a tee in the butt end where the hole is. Put your thumb over the open end and shake the thinner in the grip so the inside gets coated. 8. Slide the grip on over the shaft. Press the butt hard to make sure its all the way on., 9. Align the markings on the grip with the clubface as desired 10. Leave for 24 hrs.
Soap and water can be used as a temporary alternative for golf grip solvent if you don't have access to solvent. However, it may not be as effective or durable as using a proper solvent designed for regripping golf clubs. Make sure to thoroughly dry the grip and club before using it.
You put the club in a rubber vice and tighten. Then get a Stanley knife with a hooked blade, put it at the bottom of the grip and pull the knife towards the butt end of the club. You then use some grip solvent or white spirit to remove the old grip tape. And then you can start putting on your new grip.
Dirt in grip tape can be removed using an old toothbrush, soapy water, and an old rag. Use the toothbrush and water scrub the dirt in circular motions. Use the rag to get the remaining dirt. Remember to keep the board standing so the water doesn't settle in!
Just like a normal grip. Take the old grip off and clean the shaft. Place the tape on. Add solvent and slide the grip on. Search for other questions on replacing grips for full details.
No you can not you need to peel the old grip off and apply a new piece. I get mine from roswellsultragrip.com YES! it is possible but overtime the first layer that was on there might slip around and ruin the board..
You get shaft entensions and cut them to size. Then you take the grip and grip tape off the club. They fit into the current shaft and must be glued in place as shaft extensions must be permanent. You then reprip the club
sand paper it (course type) and clean using water n dish cleaning liquid. if it still doesnt work, then it's time to change grips. :)
Tord Grip is 73 years old (birthdate: January 13, 1938).
The adhesive used on sticky tape is unstable, and never really sets solid. So creepage occurs over time, as does yellowing of the tape.
The absolute best way to regrip a golf club is to use an air gun. The type used has a narrow "nipple" it tapers to a small opening. You can buy a "special" golf club gripping tool online or you can just go to any hardware store that sells air tools and buy a simple air gun. Make sure you get on that doesn't have holes in side of nozzile and tapers to a small point. They are very common and cost about $5 See NOTES AT END OF ANSWER FOR TIPS. 1) All golf grips contain a small hole in the butt end of the grip. By pushing the end of the air gun into this hole and applying air pressure I have my regulator set to 80 lbs. it will cause the old grip to swell around the shaft and can be removed "IF" it is not too old. If it is stuck, you can use one of those plastic club guides that go into your bag to keep the old grip from blowing up like a balloon. That is IF it is not too old and you want to save it. If you don't care just cut it off with a razor knife. 2) Leave old tape on shaft, it will work again. I have left tape 30yrs old on the shaft and it will work fine. I suspect you don't even need the tape as the conventional way to put grip on is to use solvent. Solvent simply makes the glue on the tape slippery so the new grip could be slid on easy. With air you don't need to have it. 3) Put the end of the new grip onto the end of the shaft about 1/4 inch. Place the air gun into the small hole on butt of new grip. Put pressure on the end of the grip so when air is applied it will slide further onto the shaft. Once it starts sliding with air applied it will go on very easily and can be rotated to align the logo on the grip with the club head. NOTE: you dont' need the plastic tube mentioned above to put the new grip on. It will slide with very little pressure once air is applied and it will not swell up like an old one. 4) The new grip can be usually be removed easily without damage for a while so you can try different grips on a club to see which one you like. NOTES: *) Put club in vise to hold it during process. I made a rubber clamp from an old piece of automotive radiator hose to prevent the club shaft from being scarred. You could use a towel. *) Once grip is on shaft I hold the grip nearest the club head, apply downward pressure and then apply more air to do the final seating. This helps to gently stretch the grip all the way onto the shaft and cover the mark left by the old grip. It will not damage the new grip to do this. *) During the final seating I also make sure the logo is aligned with the club head so at address the grip logo is on top the club. This is aesthetic and I don't believe affects the performance of the club. But no reason not to align it.
