The cord grips on the 762's were getting a little hard, the Launcher grip was looking tired. Off they came, and on went these beauties - Lamkin Permawrap Classics.
They look like standard tour-wrap grips, but have the cool stripe running along the wrap. They look great, feel sticky, and didn't cost near as much as some of the higher tech dual-density multicolor grips that the golfing-industrial marketing machine is trying to convince us that we need... I did, however, go for the sticky Winn pistol grips for the putters. I went for the mid-size on the Oddysey Rossie II - the fatter grip really does seem to take the hands out of it - extensive basement carpet test-putting proves it.
I did the regripping all by my lonesome, and it's really no big deal. You do need a workbench, some mineral spirits or thinner (soapy water works too,) something to catch the solvent when you soak the tape, some rubber gloves, and a little practice. Golfsmith has some great and easy to follow instructions here:

OK, the grips are ready, the shoes are re-spiked, and I've got a new glove. All we need is Spring.
