Never Regripped your clubs before?
Buster Grips are applied just like any other replacement grip.
The general rule for regripping your clubs is to regrip every 50 rounds played. To look at this another way, if you play twice a week, you should regrip twice a year. Three times a week, three times a year, etc. Most pro shops and major golf retailers provide regripping services and have the tools and supplies to do the job efficiently. If you want to tackle the job yourself, here is what you need to know.
You will need grip solvent, two-sided 2-inch-wide grip tape, a container to catch the unused solvent, a vise and a special rubber shaft holder. All of these should be available from major component companies.
Coleman Camp Fuel and Lighter Fluid both work well as solvents because they do not leave a residue. DO NOT USE Varsol or WD40 - they leave an oily residue that may prevent good adhesion.
1. Carefully cut the old grip off of the shaft with a sharp blade.
2. Remove any excess adhesive with the solvent.
3. Put the shaft holder over your club shaft and tighten in the vise. Be careful not to
overtighten if you are re-gripping graphite shafts - they can crack. Tighten just enough
that the shaft does not move.
4. Cut a piece of grip tape about 8 inches long. Place it along the butt of the shaft, leaving
about a half-inch over the end of the shaft. Wrap the tape around the shaft, making
full contact for the length of the tape. Squeeze the tape together at the end of the
shaft and push it slightly into the shaft to seal the end of the club.
5. Squeeze solvent along the tape. Fill the grip about three-quarters full of solvent. Put
your finger over the hole in the end of the grip, squeeze the grip opening closed and
shake the grip so the solvent covers the entire inside. Pour the solvent along the tape
and be ready to install the grip.
6. Push the grip up and over the shaft butt. Hold the grip by the front and back and push
using equal pressure with both hands. Once you start the grip sliding over the tape, do
not stop until the grip is completely on the shaft.
7. Clean any excess solvent from the grip and let it sit for an hour.
Now you are ready to play!
