It's not always quite that easy, but the air compressor method is definitely an easier way to regrip. Many times if they used double sided tape on the old grips, it's tough to get them off without bubbling them, but if you just cut them off it's not a big deal. Very easy to get new grips on, and I just use plain masking tape to build up...cheap and much quicker.

I know that this is the way that PURE grips work. Can this method be used with any grips?

Yes, but be VERY CAREFUL.

The grip can bubble up and explode very quickly and you could blind yourself in an instant.

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

Maybe it is wise to wear safety glasses !

I've changed 20 grips and never had one I was putting on explode. A couple exploded while I removed them, but they were getting throw away anyways, I was just happy they exploded so I didn't have to cut them up. And "explode" is not a very fitting word. Either a weak part split and the air leaks out, or a bubble starts building and eventually the grip rips and the air is let out. I find the risk of getting something in the eye very slim. But of course, using safety glasses will make it safer.

The reason I used the word is because one of the the ones that I did exploded violently when I was taking it off. It left a massive bruise on my wrist.

Don't underestimate the power of compressed air when you are being careless, as I obviously was.

I have been regripping for years with a air compressor.

I use short bursts.

I've actually never regripped with solvent and grip tape. I started building some of my own clubs this year and I have probably installed 50 grips with air and never ONCE had a problem. It is slicker than ... yeah you get it.

      Last (Golf) Thing You Bought?

      By tomvk77 · Posted

      I had a few tweeks in the bag. I took out my Mizuno pro FliHi 3 iron replaced it with a Titleist GT2 7 Wood. what a change that is, so easy to hit, it goes so high without it ballooning on me. I couldn't get rid of my callaway woods ( Rogue ST Max LS ) but changed the shafts to Diamana BB 63 stiff for the driver and 73 stiff for the 3 wood. Than i got myself a new putter Odyssey S2S jailbird yes i joined the centershaft family

      Are You "Loyal" to One Golf Ball?

      By tomvk77 · Posted

      First off all i think you should use the same ball all the time. We all strive for consistency on the course, the only factor you can be sure it will be always the same is your ball if you always use the same. So i think we should always use the same. I recently switched from Titleist Pro V1x to Srixon Z-Star Diamond because it i get a bit softer feel around the greens and same results on driver and irons
