I've been using air for some time now also. I absolutely encourage you to use masking tape when applying the grip with air instead of applying the grip directly to the shaft. The reason is that if you want or need to remove the grip, it is much, much simpler with air when there is tape underneath the grip. That is even more important if you are installing/removing standard size grips as opposed to mid-size. Standard grips without tape will have a tendency to bubble up or even blow out. This guy must also be single since he was re-gripping his clubs on his kitchen counter. :)

If I was single I'd play more golf 😂 thanks for the comment 👍

@ronharrington8659 Год назад

You can actually use a tire inflator to remove the grip. That’s what I do to save the grip if I need to. Don’t have to worry about cutting into a graphite shaft…. Just put the air mattress piece you use to air up an air mattress, like one to get into pool on to float around. Heat the grip a bit, and massage the air around, twist the grip, and it will pop the grip loose from the tape. Takes less than 30 seconds depending on how old the grip is…. I think my tire inflator is a Campbell Hausfield or something like that…

@steviejaygolf Год назад

I've never tried that but I will give it a try 👍 I normally use a grip remover tool.

@robvasey4149 7 месяцев назад

BE CAREFUL! NOT ALL GRIPS CAN BE INSTALLED USING COMPRESSED AIR METHOD!! I've been regripping golf clubs using compressed air from a compressor or tire inflator. Either one works when installing grips that can be installed with air. Grips you cant install using air: Dri-Tac, Dri-Tac 2.0, SuperStroke, basically any grip which has an inner rubber lining with sn outer rubber grip material. If trying to regrip using these types of grips, the grips can explode because the air builds up under the inner rubber lining. Also if this happens and youre in an enclised space, if you dont have hearing protection this can do a number on your hearing.

@simongiguere8794 Год назад

I've been using this method for 7-8 years. Easy, simple and quick

@biagiocozza8875 Год назад

That is way better, than a bunch of solvent, or lighter fluid.

Good video. FYI, I wouldn't clamp a vise to your granite edge, you may regret it. Thank You

@robertnorth5705 Месяц назад

Thanks for the video Stevie! Have you tried this with Golf Pride Tour Wrap 2G grips? I tried this last night with 2 wraps of masking tape on a Cobra driver shaft, and I got a lot of twisting on the butt end of the shaft. Basically no twisting further down the shaft. I wonder if this grip in particular is just too slick on the inside for this method to work? Fortunately, removing the grip using air on a non-double sided tapped shaft is a breeze!

@steviejaygolf Месяц назад

@@robertnorth5705 I have actually used the 2g grips like this. Twisting can definitely occur especially if you have a fast swing speed. For fitting purposes I always use this method, as you say its easy to whip the grip off and resize. Some grips don't work aswell with this method though. Just make sure you check the core size isn't larger the shaft otherwise it won't work. I.e. 58 core fits a 0.580 shaft 60 core fits a 0.600 shaft etc. If the grip is a 60 core fit onto a 0.580 shaft, you will have issues even with 2 layers of tape Hope that helps 👍

@williamsanders3182 Год назад

Did you use an inflation needle in the air hose to apply the air?

@steviejaygolf Год назад

It wasn't a needle no, it's a pointed plastic adaptor, I'll put a picture on my community tab now

Why on earth did you not use the vice to hold those shafts while you use that knife to remove the old grips????

@dave8059 Год назад

Not understanding how the masking tape keeps the grip from twisting. No adhesive?

@eclark9965 Год назад

The tape is sticky on both sides…

@DawgDaddy Год назад

The shaft is a larger diameter than the grip, you expand it with air and then the grip contracts to stay in place on the tape. I've been doing this for 8 years or so and have never had a grip twist. Also I've never had one explode as I set the air pressure to 35 psi and the air escaping from the end of the grip never allows it to build enough pressure inside to explode. Also another huge benefit to me is when your grips wear out it is a snap to swap out the grips as they don't have to be cut off and cleaned up as before.

@eclark9965 Год назад

@@DawgDaddy good response and explanation. I’ll be trying this very soon. I’ve changed my share of grips and there’s always the white knuckle moment when you’re trying to force the grip down while the spirits are doing their thing.

@ricksirisko9582 Год назад

Very clever use of compressed air. However …. Pulling that blade toward your other hand under the shaft is very dangerous. One slip over the top and you’ll hit the worst slice you’ve ever had! Always keep your free hand away from a blade under force .Cheers

@steviejaygolf Год назад

I just had to re-watch my video as I'm always very safety conscious and cut away from me. But yes I obviously was concentrating on getting the right shot for the camera with the graphite shaft. Thanks for that 👍 Be safe people cut away from body and hands!

@iettord3124 Год назад

Skimming thru the comments and couldn't really make sense of your comment. Pulling your blades (or cavity clubs) isn't that dangerous as long as you shout fore! And ya, going over the top will give you a slice, been there done that. But "keeping the free hand away" was one of the more odd golf instructions I've seen. Then it all dawned on me... 🤣

Try searching bike valve air adapter on amazon. If you check out my community tab there's a pic of the one I used, I personally hold it up to the hole, you can shave the adapter slightly so it actually fits in the hole.

@kylemoak3747 Месяц назад

How does the trip stick to the tape if it’s not double sided?

@steviejaygolf Месяц назад

@@kylemoak3747 it doesn't actually stick no. The grip is inflated over the shaft, and the grip is tight to the shaft when the air is removed. I wouldn't recommend gripping this way for very fast swing speeds, however it is a fantastic technique for sizing a grip in a fitting process

@robsaxepga Год назад

So just masking tape? I like this much better than solvent.

Thank YOU 👍. can i still use double side tape and solvent then pushing it thru with the compressor? why? because on many occasions i got stuck while pushing with hands 😞 btw can i use 90 alcohol instead of solvent? Thank YOU again.

@steviejaygolf Год назад

I've never tried to combine the compressor with the double sided tape and solvent technique, I mean I can't see why it wouldn't work and surely it would make it easier to slide on, if you do try this I'd love to hear the results. I use low smelling white spirit as my solvent, I've never tried 90 alcohol, I'm guessing rubbing alcohol isopropyl. I guess trial and error in this case. I find white spirit cheap and very good

@golfnut7369 Год назад

Compressed Air works great, but you can ruin a grip with air; the compressed air can cause the grip to tear or explode.

@j.mccarthy3008 Год назад

Thanks for the video!! I’ve been doing this for awhile as well. Several others have commented on possibly needing additional layers of tape. Be sure to check the grips and shaft diameter before trying this process.

@stevebuchanan4829 Год назад

You could cut those grips off in the vice. Wouldn’t have been as manly but a lot safer.

@markreid9810 Год назад

Totally agree with the air compressor concept. The one thing I have found is that you should evaluate the shaft diameter and core size of the grip more closely. If you put a .600 core grip on a .580 shaft without much tape build up, the grip can be turned pretty easily. Other than that, I will pretty much use this approach on my own clubs.

@steviejaygolf Год назад

Absolutely 💯 👍

@jerrybrouwer2494 Год назад

Hello. If double sided tape is used with solvent to glue the tape in place, how does single sided masking tape glue the grip to the shaft? Is there some kind of adhesive already on the inside of the grip. Love the compressor idea it keeps the flammable materials out of the home. Look forward to hearing from you. Thank you!

@steviejaygolf Год назад

@@jerrybrouwer2494 the masking tape has a rough outer surface and thickens the width of the shaft so the grip partially inflates to stretch over this, once the air is released the grip will shrink back to its size and the rubber grip tightly over the rough surface area. I hope my explanation makes sense to you and answers your question. The more tape used the harder it is to slide the grip over even with air and obviously a tighter hold on the club. I've never had an issue with grip slipping round or twisting and I swing at 105 mph
