This is a very easy do it yourself job. I order golf pride grips and two sided grip tape from Amazon. Then pick up a razor knife and some mineral spirits from any hardware store. That's all you need. Use the razor knife to cut off the old grips and then remove the old tape (mineral spirits help with tape removal). Put new tape on the club shaft, put your finger over the little hole on the new grip, fill the grip up with mineral spirits, take your finger off the little hole on the grip and let the mineral spirits pour out through the hole onto the new grip tape until the grip is empty, then slip the new grip on the shaft over the tape. Look down the shaft and make sure the grip is not twisted and adjust if necessary, clean the sticky tape residue off the shaft with some mineral spirits on a paper towel, and wait a couple hours for everything to dry and set before swinging the club. If you are re-gripping a club with a graphite shaft, be careful not to scratch the shaft when removing the old grIp. Once you re-grip the first couple of clubs and get the hang of it, the rest will go very fast.
