How to Regrip a Golf Club

Golf Club Grips
There are many repairs you can do to a golf club to keep your equipment in good shape or fit your game. One of the easiest to do is to regrip the golf club. I've been doing this for years and even used regripping a golf club as a demonstration in a college communications class (I got an A)!!

You are probably wondering how to tell when you need to regrip a club. There are a number of signs that it might be time to replace the grips on your golf clubs:

  1. Worn grips: If the grips on your clubs are worn or slick, it's probably time to replace them. Worn grips can affect your grip on the club and make it harder to control your shots.

  2. Hard or brittle grips: If the grips on your clubs feel hard or brittle, it's a good idea to replace them. Hard or brittle grips can be uncomfortable to hold and can cause hand fatigue, making it harder to play your best.

  3. Poor performance: If you are having trouble controlling your shots or feel like you are losing distance, it could be a sign that your grips are not providing a good connection between your hands and the club. In this case, replacing the grips could help improve your performance.

  4. Age: Golf grips can break down over time and lose their effectiveness, even if they don't show signs of wear. If it's been a while since you replaced your grips, it's a good idea to consider doing so to ensure that you have the best possible grip on your clubs.

As a general rule, it's a good idea to replace your golf grips every 1-2 seasons or when you notice any of the above signs. By replacing your grips regularly, you can ensure that you have a comfortable, secure grip on your clubs and play your best.

To regrip a golf club, you will need a few tools and supplies:


  1. A vice or clamp to hold the club steady while you work.
  2. A utility knife or razor blade to remove the old grip.
  3. A grip solvent or rubbing alcohol to clean the shaft of the club.
  4. A new grip and grip tape.

To regrip the club, follow these steps:

  1. Clamp the club in the vice or clamp and make sure it is secure.
  2. Use the utility knife or razor blade to carefully slice down the length of the old grip, being careful not to damage the shaft of the club.
  3. Once the grip is removed, clean the shaft of the club with the grip solvent or rubbing alcohol to remove any dirt or residue.
  4. Cut a piece of grip tape to the length of the shaft, leaving about an inch of overlap at the top and bottom.
  5. Apply the grip tape to the shaft of the club, starting at the top and working your way down. Make sure the tape is smooth and evenly applied.
  6. Place the new grip onto the shaft, making sure the logo on the grip is facing the right direction.
  7. Using a small amount of grip solvent, wet the inside of the grip and the shaft of the club.
  8. Slowly slide the grip onto the shaft, using the grip solvent to help it slide into place. Make sure the grip is straight and centered on the shaft.
  9. Once the grip is in place, use a grip tool or a rubber mallet to tap it firmly into place.
  10. Repeat this process for each club you want to regrip.

It is generally recommended to wait at least 90 minutes after regripping a golf club before hitting balls with it. This is to allow the grip solvent to fully dry and set, ensuring that the grip is securely attached to the shaft of the club. If you hit balls too soon after regripping, the grip may not be fully bonded to the shaft and could potentially slip or come loose during play. I usually try to plan ahead so I can let it set overnight.

If you are in a hurry and can't wait 90 minutes, you can try hitting a few practice shots to test the grip. Just be aware that the grip may not be fully set and may require additional time to dry before it is ready for normal use.

It's also a good idea to keep the regripped clubs away from direct sunlight or heat sources while the grip solvent is drying, as this can speed up the drying process and allow you to use the clubs sooner.

When you are finished, your golf clubs will have new, fresh grips that will help you play your best.


How much does it cost to regrip a golf club?

The cost to regrip golf clubs will run between $50 and $75 including the grips, solvent, and grip tape. It can run a bit less if you do it yourself or a bit more if you hire someone to do it for you.
