    My name is Erich and I live in Italy welcome to my channel. I used to play golf on and off for many years, but I started my journey again about 8 years ago, changing my swing completely.
    My goal is to become a single figure handicap golfer in the near future.
    To achieve this goal, I built my own backyard putting green and set up a backyard golf net. I love playing in my backyard green, doing drills, club reviews and playing at the range and at the course to get better at the game and ultimately reach my goal (hopefully).

    A tiny bit of solvent helps it slide on better. I find that over time the grips can twist a bit which isn't great when you have grips with alignment lines. I'm going to try a strip of double-sided tape at the butt end next to see if it help keep it in place and stop it twisting over time. Have seen others suggest using masking tape and strong hairspray to help against twisting as well. This method though makes it very easy and able to swap grips easier e.g. maybe you want different grips in summer and winter.

    What a great idea. I have never heard of or seen that before. You are right, it ca be messy using the tape and solvent. I have always changed my own grips, and find it less messy when I use a spray to apply the solvent. I may well give your way a try next time. Great video.

    I know it’s probably just me, but for some reason it feels like you missed a very opportune moment after finishing installing the new grip on that club by not picking it up and saying, “Now say hello to my little friend!”…. No? No one else? Just me? Ok, you buncha liars. All kidding aside, excellent demonstration of an awesome, time and mess saving process. Thank you for your time and effort. May the birdies be with you, kind sir.

    I never considered using a mini compressor to do this, I do have a small compressor, but those mini ones are extremely cheap to pick up.
    Brilliant idea.
    Have wanted to try using just air because taking them back off if you don't like them is so hassle free.

    Thanks for the tip! I just installed a few grips without any tape and it feels like there's some play between the grip a shaft, like it's a little loose. Is it possible that's just trapped air that will eventually dissipate?

      I never had an issue with the lamkin crossline, make sure to wait a few minutes after installing them. Lately on old clubs I take off the old tape, but leave just a little bit, but I have some clubs where the shaft is super clean and the grips are not slippery, good luck!

      You mean the air compressor? It’s a really old one actually and it’s broken, it doesn’t give out its full power, but as you can see you don’t really need that much pressure to remove a grip.
