Amazon Finds: Saplize Golf Regripping Kit

The Problem: Most golfers don’t replace their grips often enough. The golf grip is an essential but often underrated part of the golf club and finding the right grip for the right price can be a challenge. 

Add in the cost of having grips installed and replacing grips for all your clubs gets expensive.

The Solution:

Saplize 13-piece golf grips with the essentials to regrip your clubs at home simply and easily. 

Regripping clubs is pretty straightforward and there are many methods to do so. This kit has everything that you need (minus a vice) to do the job done yourself for a fraction of the cost.

Saplize Regripping Kit: How I found it

I know what kind of grips I like and being a tinkerer, I don’t mind trying and regripping my sets fairly frequently. Being curious about how “knockoff” grips would perform, I went right to Amazon and, with a quick search for “golf grips”, these were top of the list with 3,000- plus reviews and 4.5-star rating. I hit the Buy Now button and, a few days later, these were at my doorstep. 

How it worked (and didn’t): I will start with the good. The packaging it came in was neat and tidy and well-organized. First impressions were positive. The grips I ordered were midsize gray and, compared to the real-deal Golf Pride MCC4 these are based on, they are decent.

The weighting was consistent. They all weighed within the three grams as stated, the coloring was matched and the feel was on par with what I expected. Also included were a little spray bottle of grip solvent, a hook knife for removing the old grips, a rubber shaft clamp and 15 adhesive tapes. 

The rubber clamp gets an elite score. It’s such a simple item and works with any vice and for all grips without slipping or sliding while still protecting the shaft.

The rest of the items are not bad but not great, either. The hook knife is sharp and will get grips off without difficulty but it is a bit flimsy. The same goes for the solvent: it is what it is and, while it works, I have used far better.

The “bad” in this review is the adhesive grip. Although I’m not a fan, these will work for a one-time use. However, if you use an air compressor to remove grips, you will want to avoid these. They are really tacky, which can make them difficult to install smoothly.

Now to the performance of the grip itself. I used these grips for 12 rounds in a variety of conditions. They performed and worked as they should. The MCC4 is not a very tacky grip and these are not, either. For me, there is too much cord exposed. However, these grips didn’t tear, slide or shift during my time with them. 

The bottom half held its color and felt softer with just a little give. Again, this is what I had hoped for. 

With several rounds, practice sessions and a variety of conditions, these grips passed the test. While there is a different feel to the MCC4 they are based on, these definitely hold their own and have a good feel in their own way. 

Saplize Grip Kit: The Bottom Line

For $59.99, getting an all-in-one kit with 13 grips and the basic installation equipment, this is great value. Although the grips don’t have the best feel, they do have solid performance and durability. While the kit itself is not a professional set-up by any means, it works, even for a first-timer. Regripping clubs is pretty simple and with an all-in-one kit like this, you can save yourself a lot of time and money.
