I need larger grips on my clubs (bought them off the shelf, but I have much larger than average hands).

1) What's the best option to have this done? Within easy reach, there's a Dick's, a Golf Galaxy, and a course pro shop that does club fitting.

2) How long will I need to leave my clubs?

3) Roughly how much does it cost?

3 -10 dollars a club (depending on your choices), last time I did it I stripped off my old grips for them ahead of time & they had them all done in about 10 minutes or so.

Took them home with me right then :)

yep, 3-10$ depending on what grip you choose...typically have a $1 a club labor charge and they'll have it done in like 30 min. But you can't swing it for liek 24 hours.

I'm a huge fan of doing it myself and also not using tape. Or if I need to build it up i'll use regular masking tape. The 2 sided tape is sticky for a day or two but really does nothing long term. I've never taken a taped grip off and had any tape on the inside of the grip so IMO the tape doesnt stick to the grip at all.

I went ahead and had them regripped last night at Dick's. I now have tour velvet jumbo grips, which is correct for my hand size. Yesterday while playing, my driver grip (the old one, before regripping) actually twisted on the shaft during a swing. Hopefully that won't happen anymore; the guy at Dick's left the old tape on and put a new layer on top, so hopefully the new grips are on there nice and snug.

Thats interesting on not liking tape... I've never had problems with two sided tape slipping or loosing grip. I'm suprised they didn't take the old tape off, I guess thats why I like doing it myself I clean all the old tape and make it like its brand new. But, you shouldn't have any issues with the old tape being left on.

Yeah, he told me he was going to do it that way, because the big grips could use an extra layer of tape, and I agreed (because it seemed to make sense). I assume it won't cause me any trouble.

Its not that I dont like tape. Well I guess I dont. When I have to regrip and cleaning it off is a huge pain. Its just that Ive yet to see a benefit of using tape. Ive never seen it stuck to the inside of a grip so obviously it loses its grip after a few days and its a pain putting it on and taping it off. I am building up some regular sized grips with masking tape though.

Adding tape and some larger grips increase the weight at the butt half of the club. This changes the center of gravity and may make the head end feel lighter. If you are a head swinger, this could be a problem. If you are a handle swinger then it shouldn't be much of a problem

      Dr. Raymond Prior and Block vs. Random Practice (The Spin Axis Podcast)

      By iacas · Posted

      It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…

      I played tennis in college. I thought block practice was great for serves because you were starting the point and  you could easily adjust where you wanted to place the ball based off the same motion. I equate those to tee balls. I despised block practice for groundstrokes once you reached a certain level and your fundamentals were good. To me, hitting a 100 crosscourt backhands in a row was silly because I would never do that in a match. I needed to randomize it by hitting some deep, some angled, all with different speeds and spins. I share that same thought about iron play. Because we seldom hit the same approach shots hole after hole, I prefer to practice irons randomly.
