Stippling after sizing ergo grips
I have a pair of medium Rink grips that came with my Gt45. It seems like they need a decent amount of sanding to fit me. I was wondering what everyone does for grip after adjusting ergo grips? Do you stipple with a punch? Any better methods that give a good grit? Ty for your thoughts.

I've used a Dremel to stipple. small pointy bit, tap-tap-tap. Go slow, be gentle. Comes out good.

Re: Stippling after sizing ergo grips
I jammed a nail into the split end of a tack hammer. Once you get the wrist motion it goes quickly and I can make my work blend in with the factory texture. I like to switch between light-medium-hard strikes. If you are near an edge I suggest concentrating on getting the borders correct then you can relax and fill in the rest.
After the stippling is done I brush away the loose wood with a wire brush and apply Sherell's stock oil.

Try using a #0 phillips screwdriver bit, and a small hammer. Hold the bit lightly between thumb and forefinger, then move it around while tap-tap-tapping with the hammer. It does a fabulous job.
You can also buy electric stippling tools for a few dozen bucks. They work great, too.
