Forum: Club Making & Components

I was at Golfworks yesterday and the sales guy had a new Adams Speedline 9064LS driver at the cash that he bought off of ebay. I was surprised that he didn't buy Maltby clubs as he works at Golfworks and I assumed he would get a discount. He said got the Adams Speedline 9064LS driver head off of...

Anybody have any idea where to get a sole weight for an Adams Pro Gold hybrid? Just noticed mine is missing. Thought I could swap with an unused Pro model but not the same. Thanks.

Hey, Just want to know. Can you add weight to a putter? I have this putter that I like very much but I would like it to weigh just a bit more. How do I do that? cheers, LAL

I had it cout down to 44" a while ago because of my slice but now its gone after 5 lessons :) so i wanted to add the inch back. I was curious how much head spead does adding an inch to a driver usually add? I swing at about 100-105mph right now with the 44" shaft (got tested) so with an extra...

If I was to take a 40" shaft and add a 1" extension, would it play long enough for a 4/5 wd? I don't like adding more than 1" when an extension is needed, so if this is not possible it won't be a route I'll pursue.

Just call me an idiot with the Golf Channel and a credit card...(just kidding). I recently ordered a 56 degree Momentus Sand Wedge both as a training tool for my chipping and pitching, but also to play on the course (USGA approved). My problem is that (being 6'4"), it is two inches shorter than...

Having reshafted a Big Bertha steelhead 3-wood with graphite, I need to add about 13g of lead tape to the head to get the SW that I want. What is the best place to add the weight on the head given the hawkeye sole plate? Too much at the toe or heel and I will get undesireable results I imagine. ...

If you shorten the length of a putter from 35" to 31", the weight and feel is now lighter. I know you can add lead tape to the putter head. Are there any other methods to add weight to a shorten putter in order to get the orginal feel back? Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I'm in the process of crafting a putter for a friend. He likes a short putter (32") and found it a little too light. What's the best way to add weight to the putter head? Thanks

What effect other than increasing the swing weight will adding a 10grm weight plug to a putter have?

I have a 2016 M2 Driver and was thinking of adding weight to it to increase distance and accuracy. I have a 90-95 mph swing with a slight slice. The head feels a little light. Will adding weight help? If so, do I use lead tape or change the club weight (now 4 gm) to a higher weight (6, 8,...

10 grams added to the head equals a 5 cpm variation in frequency i.e 1/2 half a flex. +- 1/4 hosel depth= 2cpm +- 2 grams head weight=1 cpm

I'm thinking of picking up an Odyssey Black Series Tour Design #1 putter at Golf Town and I'm wondering of the lie angles can be changed on them slightly if I need it. Anyone know if they can be adjusted?

Can an offset head on a 3 wood w graphite shaft be adjusted to neutral?

Not that I know if it makes a big difference in performance but one problem with adjustable drivers is spine alignment. Let's say the shaft FLOS perfectly in the 9.5 degrees position but you want to change to 11.5 degrees. Chances are that if you are not dealing with a quality shaft you'll end up...

Is it possible to adjust the loft on fairway woods? I would like to change the lofts on my fairway woods but I'm not sure if it can be done or if it's a bad idea to do so. Anyone know? Thanks

I just picked up a nice used set of OS Forged Nikes, and after nitting a few balls at the dome I think they will be in the bag next season. The lies seam a bit upright and and I will need to do some tweeking to bring them back to my specs. Because I am a hands on type of person I want to check them...

I was told go to from a 60g to a 70g shaft but seem to be doing ok with my 60g shaft. What should I expect if I switch to 70g??? what are the ups and downs with making this move and why? Thanks

I was looking at buying an Aeroburner TP head and putting my old Superfast Burner 2.0 Shaft (Matrix Ozik Xcon 4.8) on it. The AB TP specs indicate a .335 shaft tip diameter and the SF 2.0 specs state a .350 shaft tip diameter. When I physically compare the AB TP Driver to the SF 2.0, the SF 2.0...

Hi, Do you guys have anywhere to suggest in Ottawa to look for aftermarket shafts? I got fitted by Taylormade yesterday for a driver, and unforunately the best fit for me was an R11 TP with a Diamana 'ahina shaft.. which comes up to a whopping total of $630. I currently hit an R9 with the OEM...

Okay, I know it was wet on Saturday and I probably should have wiped my putter after every putt, but I didn't. Learning my lesson the hard way because it's RUSTING!!!! HELP!!! I love this putter. HELP ME PLEASE!!!!

Hey guys, received a pulled VS proto Hybrid shaft today but i think it might be to short. What is the length i need for a 20 Degree hybrid 3 iron? The shaft i got is only 38". Also how will it act diffrent if i extend it? It appears to have been tip trimmed 2" and i read that you are not...

Anyone know the hosel size of an alien wedge, its huge!!!

Anyone tried the Reaction V2 or know where to order one in Canada?

I was thinking of altering my irons by having the club heads bent slightly to increase the angle and increase the height of the clubs, as they are a little bit short for me. Who does this kind or work and what should it cost? Any comments or suggestions? :scratchch fez

Hi everyone. My name is Ramiro, It is my first post in the forum and I am writting from Argentina. I have a question for you.... I have started to play six months ago and now I have Handicap 29. Until now I was sharing the clubs with my father but I think the time to buy my own clubs has...

If You Already Know The Basics To Club Making,, Knowing Your Own Club Length, Lie, Etc..etc.... And You Want To Find Out Your Exact Shaft Flex To Match Your Swing Try This.........go To Any Club Shop Or Store, I Prefer Going To Golfsmith Since I Live Nearby...but Make Sure They Have A Frequency...

I have found through my research that FLO makes sense for me. I can't afford to buy a shaft frequency meter at this point. Also, I don't want to take my shafts to the shop for puring because I want to do all of the work myself. I think that bearing spine finders are not enough given the fact that...

Should you be overly concerned about he lies of your clubs?? See following post from Tom wishon on Shoptalk. Also keep in mind that you will ever hardly find a perfect even lie on a golf course. RE: ShopTalk: Measuring Lie http://groups.yahoo.com/group/shoptalk/message/75059 Up...

Saw your post on the Neufinder forum about same length irons. I have always wanted to try a set of irons where all clubs are the same length, so I am going to make a set tomorrow. I have from 4 to PW of a Dynacraft Tour Caliber Forged set that I used several years ago All irons will be the...

I've recently picked up a Mercury Tour Pro Kevlar shaft and the raw CPM is listed as 251. Now if you go by Merc's specs that falls in the x-stiff range (I'm extrapolating with Andre's help as the chart only goes to 243 CPM in the upper stiff range and 240 CPM being centreline stiff) based on a...

I say it's bull. I've read the following on many golf grips websites but for some reason I have never saved 3-4 strokes per round'. Perhaps they mean grips that are 10 years old or very slick grips but look elsewhere for shaving strokes off your scores. ...

Well, after looking at covanant's thread and checking out that website (http://www.putterplating.com), I am considering getting my TeI3 knockoff refinished to turn it into a respectable gamer. Basically, I'm going to have a blank slate. I'm going to get all the engravings on the neck filled in, I...

The stock shaft in my Hogan Apex Edge forged irons is a Royal Precision #3 regular shaft that is frequency matched. I tested both #7 at 304cpms and E (aka PW) at 313cpms so approximately a 4cpm increase the shorter the iron - not too bad for OEM I guess. Would upgrading to a Rifle 4.5 or...

Seriously thinking about trying this out. All I need to learn is 3 swings and 3 different ball positions instead of 13 different swings and 13 different ball positions(that is if you do not play every club at the same ball position) I can also only bring 3 clubs to the range:scratchch Also thinking...

Just wondering if there is anyone in Orleans who puts clubs together. Cheers

Hi, To all Clubmkaers: I need a shaft put in my driver. It needs to be done by tomorrow afternoon. I know there is not much time between now and then.. but is there any Superman's out there???? LMK.

Interested in purchasing a set of tour flighted rifle shafts in 5.5 flex, any of the clubmakers have these or anyone know where I can pick up a set local here in Ottawa???

I'm looking for someone in the Orleans area that can put together a club for me. I have a 2008 Taylormade Tour Burner TP head, and a brand new, uncut GD Pershing stiff shaft that I would like installed. I'm looking for the shaft to be tipped perhaps 1/2 an inch to play S/X ish... I don't have a...

Hey guys. I need my new TP blades extended by a half inch and regripped with grips that i've got for them at home. It's only the 6-PW that are being extended and regripped. Thing is i need to pick them up on Thursday for a game on Friday. Can anyone help me out!!

Can I buy a good set of component forged left handed iron heads with .355 taper tip hosel? Oh, and indivdual irons. only need 5-PW. Thanx

Hi All, Do any of you have any experience with Bang Golf Components? If so, what is your opinion of the product (s) ? Regards

Hi...need a recommendation for an excellent clubfitter in Ottawa...need my bag dialed in for the upcoming season. Thanks.

Finally, I am tired of the drivers from the stores. More knowledge I know about golf club, more disappointed I have after hitting there BRAND NAME drivers.

I'd really rather not send my 3wd to the states if i can avoid it. I just phoned around locally & it's a no go. No one around here does it. Anybody who does, post here or pm me. Thanks.:thumbsup

A 460 cc head and a steel shaft? Just curious...

Do any local club technicians offer the "hotmelt" treatment for clubs ? I've got a few tour issue clubs i'd like to reshaft and I want to holtmelt them to the proper swingweight and bias. Thanks !
