    Probably looking at €10 or so a grip. Any golf outlets will do them for you or any pro shop

    Grips are very important as they are the only thing connecting you to your club.
    I buy golf pride cord grips the red and black ones you can buy grips cheap on adverts it's handy to do it yourself. It's a skill worth learning as you will save money in the long term.
    Lots of tutorials on YouTube.

    In my experience its the same price buying them online as buying them in a shop and having them fitted. Look for a full set deal.

    I got mine done in McGuirk's there a few weeks ago. The grips were about €9 each, but he did 12 clubs for me for €80 when I asked for best price. Ready next day.

    I have Callaway X14 and fitted Ping id8 grips which I find are nice and tacky and they wear well (http://www.ping-shop.com/product/ping-id8-grip-white). Pros normally charge €10 p/club so the McGuirke deal is a good one.

    If you are anyway handy it is very easy to buy them online and fit them yourself. As mentioned earlier there are lots of youtube videos that would show you how to do it but if I got that McGuirke deal I wouldn't bother doing it myself.
