I've seen people mention a preference for a heat gun or a torch, but never with much explanation. I'm thinking (and the wife agrees that I should, because she's awesome like that) that I'm going to start doing my own grips. Golf Galaxy has gone to crap for service, they want me to leave my clubs there and pick them up in a few days. Yea, that'd be great, except I live 90 minutes away. Or I could take them to a golf course that is 40 minutes away, and still have to leave them there overnight and drive back to pick them up. That's a lot of driving, and it seems like removing and putting on old grips should be pretty simple.
However, once the grip is removed, I've seen people say the heat gun is the way to go to 'loosen' up old grip tape. I've also seen Golf Galaxy use a torch and simply burn the tape off. With respect to steel shafts (I'm told a torch on graphite is a big no-no), do you prefer heat gun or torch?
