Butch's Big Golf Tip of the Day

Butch changes his golf grips frequently.  He takes off the old grips and wraps the shaft with masking tape, then pours paint lacquer into the grip also spraying some on the masking tape followed by quickly pushing the new grip onto the shaft. Tricky job and you have to work fast. Well he discovered the other day he just cannot get it done anymore. Naturally he blamed the lacquer thinner. "They must have changed the formula". I suspicioned  and told him so that he may not have the power in his hands he once had. He didn't want to think that was true but gave it some credence. He planned to have Jason help him get the new grips on. The mailman came by today and remarked on the weather saying the course had dried up enough to play golf. Butch told him his tale of woe. He told Butch it was an easy job and he would do it for him if needed. He said he uses an air compressor. Blows those babies off with it and blows the new ones on with it. Slick as a whistle! Butch still has Leo's air compressor here...we also have one on the motorhome...so he blew those things on slick as a whistle and he is pleased as punch!
