Regripping golf clubs?

Where can I get my golf clubs regripped? Before anyone mentions Edwin Watts, I will not spend money in that business. Where else can I get it done?

Buddy of mine owns the driving range on airline between highland and industriplex. He'll hook you up.

Any club really

I already have the grips I want. Do you know approximately how much that should cost me? Nothing exact, just a ball park figure.

No idea how much the service costs
They will mark it up since you did not buy the grips there
Look online for a re-gripping guide
It's not that hard at all

OK, I'll look at regripping myself is it isn't very difficult.

Don't get fricked over. All it takes is double sided tape, solvent, your new grips, and a knife. Thanks to the country club I worked at in high school, I regripped half of my family's club for free.

Pay somebody to do it. It won't be that expensive. Where did you buy the grips from? They can probably do it.

WD-40 works for solvent. Very easy to do yourself.

This is by far the easiest thing in golf you can do. My 10 year old girl has done this (had to have lavender grips). I showed her how on one and she did the rest.

Regrip them yourself. It's very easy and shouldn't take you over 30-45 minutes for the whole set.
The only club in my bag I would pay to have regripped is my putter. Getting the grip aligned just right is worth the few bucks they charge.

definitely try to regrip yourself...
if you have a work bench with a vice attached put some pads in it, tighten they club in them..take a hook knife and cut off old grips..retape with double sided tape..then use solvent, hairspray or rubber cement and just slide them on..good to go!

Buy the regrip kit from Golfsmith. It includes double sided tape, grip solvent, and a rubber vise clamp to hold the club while changing the grip.

Buy the grips, grip tape and mineral spirits from Golfsmith and do it yourself.
Cut off old grips.
Scrape or peel off old grip tape.
Wrap on new grip tape.
Pour mineral spirits on tape and slide on grips.

This is the hardest part, but only with graphite shafts.
Besides that very easy to do.

Redd, you're friends with Sonny Fowler?

Yea like said before do it yourself. If you have an old club, try it first. Buy a cheap grip for this though. The tricky part is the actual regrip itself. If you don't have enough solvent on the club, inside of grip, it causes problem. Mineral spirits, two sided tape and a knife to remove the old grip and tape. The vice makes it much easier, but you don't have to have one if you have somebody helping you.

Got my putter regripped at Caddyshack Driving Range on Siegen this Saturday while I hit balls. Grip cost me $12 which included them putting it on.
