Grip Installer Tool FE

Description

Golfsmith Grip Installer Tool The special design of this Golfsmith Grip Installer Tool makes grip installation on popular big butt graphite shafts a breeze. While it is recommended for grip installation on oversize butt shafts such as .865" and .700", it also works great on conventional shafts and grips. Simply slide a lubricated slip-on grip over the nozzle and slip the whole assembly over the shaft butt. The tool then slides down the shaft and off. Review: it worked great. - Never used one before, it worked great. Review: No better than just using a rag ... - Getting older, I thought I'd try this if it would make things a little easier, since the only tricky part in putting a grip on is sliding it all the way on without stopping too much and getting it stuck and then having to pull or even cut it off and repeat, although that's not the end of the world either. So in putting new grips on my whole set, I bought this and tried it the first three times, wanting it to work, but ended up just going back to using a rag around the grip as I push it on as actually easier & simpler. (Using a rag around the grip is the key, as it eliminates your hands slipping on the grip as you push from the inevitable solvent or water that gets on your hands and the outside of the grip during the process.) I've also found it much easier doing multiple grips assembly-line fashion rather than completely one at a time - i.e., strip the old grips and put the new tape on all of them first, then go through and put the solvent and new grips on all of them.
