Me neither, until now! My HiBore's grip bubbled up REALLY quick, and I put on some safety glasses and popped it (wasn't interested in keeping it), but these open up slightly at the end, but DO NOT come off... I'm at 90 PSI too. They're pressurizing up really well. Will let you guys know if I get it done.

the Winns can be tough, also, the plain cheap velvet grips that are old, don't like to budge either.

I played with them for a while tonight, and I saved about 1/2 of them... Not too bad as I thought I wasn't going to be able to get any off! I used the air and a twisting motion starting at the butt end to free up the grip from the tape. A couple of the grips had the wrapping start to unravel, so I gave up on those, but it's better than nothing!

Putting the new Winn DSi midsize grips on the clubs whose grips I couldn't save tonight, getting the play test this weekend in Phoenix... They feel nice in the hands so far!
