Head Tacki Mac IRT Pro Racquetball Grip

Having a good grip in racquetball is extremely important. I have tried multiple grips and it was time for me to experience the world of rubber grips. Of course it is difficult to slide on a new grip but when installing I recommend using gasket sealer best way to put on a grip. The grip holds up really well once put on and looks really good. More importantly it really does help the grip from slipping! I can hit backhand splats more consistently because my grip is not slipping. Good job head on making a good grip.

I was disappointed with how quickly my gearbox wrap deteriorates. I’ve used this slip-on grip for many years on many different racquetball racquets, so when the factory wrap needed to be changed, I went to another slip-on. I also just changed my buddy’s wrap to this grip. He’s very happy. I was disappointed the glue provided seemed to be old and lacked flow. I used my own rubber cement. My method to install is to heat the grip with a hair dryer to soften it for easier stretch over the end of the handle; apply glue to the handle; reheat the grip which should be a little warm, apply glue to the top inch or two inside of the grip, slide it on!

I bought this grip for my Head racquet and was under the impression that a HEAD grip would work for a HEAD racquetball racquet but I couldn't be more wrong. This product is horrible and I would honestly like to challenge the manufacturer to attempt to put it on a standard Head racquet because I'm pretty sure the task is impossible. It's the most frustrating bloody thing in the world.

Not as "tacky as I would have wanted but my old "What-a grips" have been discontinued. It looks like this grip will last forever and is pretty good as far as feel.

I probably should have done more research before I applied this grip, but looking back, I don't see how I could have. This grip was incompatible with my racquet.After you remove your old grip, this package requires that you apply glue to the handle while you slide on the grip. Upon removal of the grip and application of the glue, I found that the bottom of my handle was too big for the grip to slide onto. Thirty minutes of struggling was to no avail, and so I trashed the grip altogether. I figured a refund was out of the question, as I basically decimated the product in the assembly process.I don't want to place zero stars for this product, because it definitely felt like solid material. My poor rating stems from the lack of sufficient (cautionary) information at point-of-sale.I think the glue was a good step at keeping the grip in position during play, and I think it would have been quite possible to place the grip without getting glue on the strings, a point of contention with other commenters. I got the grip halfway onto the handle before I quit, and the strings were glue-free.Having changed many tennis racquet grips, however, I feel that a wrap-around grip would have alleviated any of my problems with replacing this grip. I ultimately purchased a wrap-around grip from Dick's, and for less money than this one.

It’s been my go to grip since the early 90’s. The glue included though is usually dry.

One of my all time favorites. I have been using it on my racquets for 15+ years. Depending how often you play it could last long for a rubber grip. with a rball leather glove you will get the best grip, but difficult to use without a glove. Installation is rather simple make sure to use the entire glue tube and if you have more glue use more, makes the installation easier. The only thing I wish they had more colors.

The glue wasn’t useful since it was old and not ply able.So I went with a hot hair dryer/ wd40/and a pliers to pull it on.Now I need to put the tether on… not easy.
