I cleaned my clubs every few rounds art home and wanted to know other than just water and a nice dry are there any cleaning solutions and or sprays to keep the grips feeling clean and more so how to give them a little more of a tacky feel. Is there an adhesive spray some of you use? what are some of your thoughts. I like to drive with a glove but use bare hands for my irons and putter cause I like the feel from the club when using it which make them need to be cleaned more often.

Well to start off, what kind of grip do you use? I usually use a wet towel to wipe them down once in awhile. End of the season I usually clean them with soap water.

all season i used white tacki mac itomic grips
the best cleaner out there - BRAKE CLEANER

wash your grips as usual, dry them w a towel, spray with brake cleaner, wipe w a dry shop towel and let air dry
brake cleaner is mostly alcohol, so it evaporates and dries quick, leaves no odor and brings grips back like the day they were put on

Wash grips in hot water and dish-washing liquid soap, scrubbing with soft plastic brush. Best soap has no skin-softener in it.

Rinse in hot water, and towel dry and then dry in open air.

If the grips start to feel slick, it's time to wash them. Also, people who eat candy bars as a snack sometimes get gunk on their grips.

Focus, connect and follow through!

White vinegar. Smells a little like salad at first, but cuts the grease, is non-toxic, all natural and cheap.

+1 I just scrub with soap and water then towel dry and they seem to be really tacky. If they are still slick after cleaning them they need to be replaced.

Fine sandpaper and roughen them up a bit - that might not work with all kinds of grips though!

    • Committing to one brand of ball this year - Snell MTB Prime X, the 5 doz. pack. Like how they perform for me. At $18/doz., can live with cover scuffing. Iron regripping with GolfPrice MCC+4 Teams std. in red/navy. May be retiring Odyssey Dual Force after 30 yrs. Seems like I can't get it to the hole anymore. Kind of light and has lots of toe hang. My reg. group's hounding finally wore me down.    From Callaway preowned - trying out the Odyssey Tri-Hot 5K in double wide (less toe hang) and triple wide (face balanced). Both also noticeably heavier...we shall see.  
    • WOW, it looks like he has been hitting stones with that putter to put all of those nicks into it.  I can't see how a ball would cause many those dings.
    • I'm fighting a knee as well as a foot so I "Feel your pain".  Luckily for me the PT is helping at this time and I am hoping knee surgery is not imminent.  Best of luck to you.
    • I would guess putting grooves in it might make it non-conforming. I am not sure how stringent the USGA is on restoring golf clubs.
    • If PT doesn't work, then all other options (shots) are just temporary bandages of the pain. You may do more damage. Pain is the bodies way of telling you to STOP. Once you get rid of that, you are just now using an already damaged body part and put more stress and strain on it.
