Goo gone has worked the best for me after you tear the sticker off--the goo gone will get the rest of the sticky stuff off and then just wash with soap and water to get the greasy goo gone all the way off My wife already thinks I'm a crazed golf nut...

I recently purchased some clubs and tried removing stickers on the shafts, which left glue/sticky residue on the shaft. I searched online and found several methods of removing the glue. I heard nail polish remover and paint thinner. I really didn't want to try either of those on my graphite shafts and wedge/steel shafts.

I use goo gone. It smells good and doesnt damage anything. I think its like $4 from home depot so its cheap too.

Grip solvent or mineral spirits works fine, which I think is the active ingredient in Goo gone. Stay away from acetone, it will melt the lacquer finish on the shaft.

I use my wife's fingernail polish remover if I don't have any grip solvent around. I haven't found alcohol to be a very good solvent for most of those bar code sticker adhesives.

I like to use something with heavy fumes in a room with minimal ventilation. As most of you have noticed from my posts it has had no effect on my brain. Other than the chronic pounding in my head and the voices, along with the drooling and the nose bleeds I'm fine.
