Re-gripping with an air compressor
CCRyder replied to Jiro's topic in Club Making/Repair & DIY Projects
I have had good fortune getting old taped ones off. If they plug the shaft with some tape originally and the air can get trapped, most will come right off. You can also spray some acetone based degreaser up in there prior to blowing. Sent from my Pixel 4 using MyGolfSpy mobile app -
Finally, for the first time in my golfing life, I will have the same grip and size on each club in the bag. The 3 wedges do have the complimentary wedge grip from Ping. I used a grip gauge to be sure all grips are the same thickness. 3 wraps plus 2 under the lower hand. Standard yellow code Ping Dylagrips. All blown on with air compressor and quality build up tape from Golfworks. Gearing up for my first golf league in a week. Sent from my Pixel 4 using MyGolfSpy mobile app

So I wanted to follow up and share I took into account the advice above and headed over to 2nd Swing for a putter fitting. I ended up having about the right length putter for was needing g to be fit for at least a slight arc. I was fit into a slightly used Ping Tyne 4. It sports the adjustable shaft if I change my set up. Overall pleased with the experience it was free with purchase and or $75. Thanks again for the feedback all.

I also found that Maltby has good resources and the putting tune up may be just what I need. http://ralphmaltby.com/putter-tune-up-procedure-worksheet/ Sent from my Pixel 4 using MyGolfSpy mobile app

Well here is what I am thinking... 1. Capture static measurements ie knuckles to floor, angles of shaft to floor etc. using a buddy and V1 video. I have a giant protractor from carpentry stuff as well. 2. Try and capture 2-3 angles of slow mo video of my stroke. 3. Try and capture up close video of impact and also use impact tape together. 4. Demo the three putters I have laying around, blade, mid mallet, and mallet. If possible come up with a way to take some of this to Dick's for testing new putters.

Lately I've been obsessing over how to fit myself for my putter of course I could pay $100 and go to a fitter down in Washington DC and use all the fancy equipment and figure this out. But between time and money I'm taking a stab at it myself. I want to get this thread started to document any and all of that work I am going to do to try and figure this out. I also want to welcome advice or comments from others that have tried to figure out the correct putter tight for their stroke correct length correct lie and so on. To get the ball rolling...bada bing ! I thought I'd post this ridiculous video I just made of myself in slow-mo using my harmonica holder that I use while playing guitar this is just a first shot at trying to document somehow my stroke path. Alas I can only post a picture of this. Sent from my Pixel 4 using MyGolfSpy mobile app

I saw this write up today and thought of that nice CAD work above. Basically looks like the same quality to me. usatoday.com: Check the yardage book: TPC Sawgrass Players Stadium Course. https://golfweek.usatoday.com/gallery/check-the-yardage-book-tpc-sawgrass-players-stadium-course/ Sent from my Pixel 4 using MyGolfSpy mobile app

Much better weather today. Played a solid 53 on the front 9. Made some good shots obviously missed others. Getting comfortable with my new hybrid. Poolesville Golf Course was looking good for March. Sent from my Pixel 4 using MyGolfSpy mobile app

This is awesome ! Off topic, yes I sm intentionally trying to keep the ball in play to eliminate giving up so many strokes. I do intend to start stretching that back out as I get more competent off the tee. Essentiually as I get under 100 regularly and am trying to break 90 I think I will need to add distance back. Back on Topic, great use of CAD !
