Pressurized Golf Shafts

Back in the late 80's there was a golf shop in FL that was pressurizing graphite driver shafts. The epoxied a tire pressure valve in the butt end of the shaf...

accufitgolf That's funny, as I have always been worried about 'back pressure' in my driver shafts when swinging hard/fast. Wondering if the epoxy would stop the head from blowing off.

Perhaps it seals the poon in the shaft. 🤨

Shafts are people too. They need air.

sdandrea1 Interesting, he/she/her/him/they, need a Last Tee protocol on this @Subsonic I work hard to offend as many as possible--sorry, bad typing, clearly meant "not offend"

Subsonic

Bravopilot The Last Tee stance on pronouns is this: Members typically do not care about others feelings as they are old. They do not want this agenda forced upon them. They feel that if you have a penis you are male and if you have a vagina, you are female. They feel that this view covers them in 99.8% of situations.

I do get a little confused about this sometimes though. I've seen some with the penis that were just simply girls, if not sissies.
Esp. when swinging a golf club. 😄 And I let them know, as LT members are wont to do.

Subsonic by that description, I guess I am a last tee member. 😁

Subsonic

Par4QC I understand it is easy for LT members to get confused. You are referring to lack of a scrotum which can effect both genders. It is a colloquialism for "guts" or "chutzpa".

The simple fact of being male does not make one virile, vigorous or potent.

I get some back pressure when I eat beans or greasy food. Next day I’m dropping bombs on everyone.

Just went to St. Louis (2.5 hours from home) to test drive a new Honda Accord Hybrid Sport (we put a deposit on one coming in early November), and we stopped afterward to eat at some eyetalian place where we both ordered meaty calzones. Later while at the Botanical Gardens I was killin the old lady. It feels like I’ll be droppin bombs myself soon.

Better to drop bombs than let the back pressure build up...

Wasn’t it Zevo that made “pressurized” driver heads?

I think you are correct.

Don't remember the pressurized shafts being discussed tho

I saw a pressurized club the other day on eBay. Searched for it in vain but it had a bulge in the shaft near the grip, can't for the life of me remember the name... Feels like a goose chase 🤔

There was also a Powerbilt Air Force 1 Driver that was pressurized.
