Grips wear off after a while, and at some point it affects your shots and you’ll need to change it
To change the grip, first remove the existing (if you want to try a thicker grip then keep it and wrap new one over)
New grip packages normally comes with grip cut at an angle on one side , and an adhesive to secure the wrap
first peel off the protective film
Take the side cut at an angle
start wrapping from the bottom of the racquet so it will naturally move up as you wrap past this point
wrap all the way up, generally covering about half the width of the grip beneath
At the top, you will need to cut at an angle so it will end up flat at the top
then continue wrapping the final bits
now get the adhesive strip ready
Fix and secure the new grip
done!
you may want to wrap the grip slightly above the original stock grip
this is useful for net and push shots
