We used to use a special tool that looked like a big syringe and you would inject solvent under the grip and just slide them off. You may want to look at a clubmaker catalog and see what is available.

It can be done if the grips are not too old. I have seen that syringe technique but the grip was old, so it just exploded all over the place.

You can use air to remove and install, need an air compressor and about 90-100lbs of pressure

I don't agree with time to replace after 6 months. Also the grips are new decade muti's, I DID put them on myself also. They aren't exactly cheap grips, which is why they last way past 6 months. I used air to remove my old ones when I put these on, but some of them were really on good and ended up getting bubbles blown in them, so I was looking for a way to avoid that.

If you put a tube/pipe over the grip when you blow them off you won't have any bubbles- Ideally the tube should just fit over the grip- blow till you hear a POP and the grip should come off nice & easy...

I used to use this to remove grips. As long as they are still pretty new and are a rubber grip (doesn't work with winn) I could get a whole set of grips off with out damaging them. This is a little different than the one I had since it is v shaped. Mine was flat but still uses the same process. Put in grip and spray some grip solvent or mineral spirits in the grip. Work the tool down to the bottom and start twisting and eventually the grip will slide off. Only negative is sometimes some of the tape stayed in the grip so if you didn't get it out the grip was lumpy.

    • Probably since the golfer has to swing the club back and up. The hands have to move back and up. You can feel them go back and up just by turning the shoulders and bending the right arm, because it brings your hands towards your right shoulder.  The difference is if you maintain width or not. Less width means a shorter feeling swing path so the more you need to lift the arms. Being as someone who gets the right arm bend at 110+ degrees, it's 100% a timing issue. I am use to like a 1.5+ second backswing. It probably should be like 1 second at most. Half a second or more will feel like an eternity. I have had swings where I keep my right arm straighter and I am still trying to time the downswing based on the old tempo.  Ideally, for me, it is probably going to be a much quicker and shorter (in duration) backswing, while keeping the right elbow straighter. Which also means more hinging to get swing length without over swinging.

    • I'm currently recuperating from surgery, so no golf, but have been thinking about this quite a bit. This and the don't overbend the right arm thing. It's hard for me to even pose the position, so I'm not 100% sure, but I feel like it's impossible to have the right humerus along the shirt seam and not overbend your right arm, unless your hands are down near your hips. If the left arm is up at or above the shoulder plane and your right arm is bent less than 90 degrees, then your right humerus has to raise or your hands will get pulled apart. Your left hand can't reach your right hand unless either the right upper arm is up or the right arm is overbent. Is that right? If it is, then focusing on not overbending the right arm would force you to raise the humerus. And actually thinking further on it, if you do overbend your right arm, then you're basically forcing your upper arm down or forcing your left arm to bend. Since (for me at least) bending the left arm too much is not something I think I need to worry about, it means that the bend in the trail arm is really the driving force behind what happens to the right humerus. 
    • I managed to knock off a 3, a 13, and a 15 a couple of weeks ago. The 3 was a 185 yard par 3 with a 6 iron to 12 feet. 13 was a 350 yard par 4, which was a 2 iron and a 9 iron to about a foot. 15 was a 560 yard par 5 with a driver in a bunker, 4 iron into the semi, gap wedge to 8 feet and a putt.
