rsvman2 Thinking about customs from bbandf, but nothing outrageous. I like the ones called 'mint.' They are black, with three simple stripes, dark green/white/dark green. They look kinda old school, and the dark green isn't gaudy.
colej rynobucket My thought was how do you pull a graphite shaft with the aluminum ferrule? Do you push against the top of the ferrule?
Rickochet colej My thought was how do you pull a graphite shaft with the aluminum ferrule? Do you push against the top of the ferrule? Heat the ferrule first before you even put the club in a clamp and slide it up the shaft a few inches then put the club in the puller and pull the shaft. After cleaning the shaft slide the ferrule off. I use a butane micro torch. I have never done an aluminum ferrule but I don't see why it would be diff than a plastic one.
rynobucket Par4QC Don't have to spend $40. https://www.diamondtour.com/club-making/ferrules-and-adapters/1-inch-colored-iron-ferrules-dozen.html Still too busy for my eye, but those are much more acceptable (looks and pricewise) than what I initially thought the OP was referring to (BB&F type colors). Still twice the cost of classic black. BAAARRFFFF!!!
rynobucket What is really crazy about how stupid some have gotten with the colored ferrules occurred on another forum. Somebody actually posted asking what shafts they should install to look the best with the awful colored ferrules they had purchased from the site I mentioned above. Ferrules are the socks of the clothing world, you use what matches the rest of the getup, not base everything else off of your Rainbow Brite socks.
Typhoon rynobucket As I’ve said before… playing the actual sport of golf is at the bottom of their list.
[deleted] I've used black, red, orange and white ferrules and for the most part black. I don't get the allure of the multi color stuff, but hey what ever works for you.
AdamMH azgreg I like a really tall ferrule, but BB&F has yet to produce anything 2" long that doesn't look like a Home Depot paint department accident 😐
ode Re OP... indifferent.....don't mind.a little glitz but prefer black. Black with a few rings at the top looks alright!
Typhoon I saw a lovely set of Taylormade MC Raw irons in one of my FB groups. They had the most God Awful ferrules on such a beautiful club. He was looking for new iron shafts…. The ferrules looked like a pair of rainbow leg warmers they went up so high
rynobucket Oddly enough, today a co-worker asked me how hard it is to swap out ferrules on his daughters irons. A few ferrules have begun to creep up the shafts (he has tried warming them up and pushing them down) and she wants something a bit more colorful. I had to explain to him that something as easy as removing heads and reassembling them can cause an extreme loss of poon. I think I convinced him it is not worth it just for aesthetics, but have a feeling I will be working on the clubs before next season.
Typhoon rynobucket Tell him to tell her it’s golf, not a fashion show. Like I said earlier, the actual playing of the sport comes in last with golf.
Eguller rynobucket swap out ferrules on his daughters irons. Ask her what color she wants, buy some fingernail polish & painters tape and go at it.... 🙄🤣
