What supplies would I need to start re-gripping clubs at home?

Lighter fluid, tile knife, two-way tape. Watch YouTube videos. It’s easy.

It's really pretty simple. They make a hook blade so that you can get it between the shaft and the grip without scoring the shaft. Golf shops and amazon sell kits that come with the tape, solvent and the hook blade.

Process is remove the old grip.

Remove the old tape. This is sometimes easy and sometimes tedious. Depends on how the old tape comes off.

Put the new tape on.

Squirt a generous amount of solvent on the tape.

Slide the new grip on and wait for a few hours.

Bench vice
Padded shaft protector
Hook blade
Double-sided tape
Paint thinner or grip solvent
Tray to catch the spillover if you're cheap

Put club in vice with shaft proector (make sure it's lined up properly), cut off old grip, remove tape, retape, squirt a fair amount of solvent in grip(with thumb over hole), shake, empty solvent onto new tape, slide new grip on, check for correct position, done. I also bang the end on the ground once or twice. Worst is when you don't have enough solvent and the grip gets stuck halfway.

Learned that one the hard way a few times

You want to see how much patience you have? Try taking off a grip that got stuck with not enough solvent, without cutting the grip off.

Now I put so much solvent on it, it slides on with me barely touching it

Rubber shaft holder that you use in the vice. Don’t expose shaft to the steel jaws of the vice for obvious reasons.

Heat gun to help get the old tape off.
