| Re: Club head alignment while re-shafting Regripping with tape and solvent is simple. I'm not about to buy a compressor just to do grips (I only replace about 15 sets of grips a year). If you are just a hobbyist, buy a syringe to apply solvent. (I use the syringe that they give you to give medicine to infants.) It makes the job FAR less messy.
The only problem you may run into is removing old tape after removing the grip. If you are having no luck, use a heat gun to warm up the glue on the tape - it will peel right off.
As for Wixcat's question about alignment, I would spine align the shafts and not worry about the grip alignment if the grips are already installed. If the shafts are steel, there wil be two spines, make sure on alignment that the sine is aligned parallel with the target line. Or, if looking at the club from address position, 12 o'clock being the top of the shaft, the spines should be at 9 and 3 o'clock. If the shafts are graphite, there is only one dominant spine. The dominant spine should be aligned at the 9 o'clcok position.
