Try to find a local shop first. Your shipping cost will probably be more than the bending fee. Also be advised that no shop will guarantee that the club will not break. If it does you are SOL. Also don't have anything bent that you can't replace, just in case of breakage. Check with your local courses and see if they know of someone who does it.

    Rickochet is right. I currently haven't gotten my clubwork area setup since moving to my new house but even if I did you would probably have spent more money in shipping and handling back and forth than a local shop would charge. Plus, you will probably have a quicker turn around time with a local shop than trying to send it to member on here. Most shops I've seen charge $5 or less for loft and lie adjustments.

    Rickochet I hear ya about the local shops, but I figured someone who I know a little might take their time a little more and not break it. I can imagine that a business that will tell you up front that they're not responsible if they break it probably won't take their time with it to ensure it doesn't break. Shipping charges shouldn't be off the charts for a flat rate box. Time isn't an issue as I don't need them any time soon. I figured it was worth a shot. Doesn't cost anything to ask.

    puttnfool I had a local guy bust one of the copperhead blade irons I wanted bent weak, as I remember they were cast carbon steel, but ??

    I would ask around locally and find out who does bending and have a conversation with the shop and go from there. I have to drive 40 mins if I want bending, so I try and have it done by the manufacturer/etc. This guy had Hireko items for sale in his shop, so I instantly felt like I could connect with him....he bent several clubs for me, cast mostly, but also forged, no problem. I think it was 6.50 a club which is high, but IMO worth it for piece of mind!

    I've posted this before. How I check for lie angle in fitting and then bend to dynamic correct lie angle which correlates to correct playing length. I do very little bending with the correct TLT series.

      Spuzz Thanks, but shipping to Canuckland would surely negate the value of having them bent.

      I'll probably just pick up some of the Dynacraft DM wedges from ValueGolf and have them bend them for me.

        Spuzz Gotcha. That's what I don't like about the replies here. Unless you hover over the tag or highlight the text before hitting reply, it won't tell you which post you were replying to.

        I thought you were replying to the OP.

          puttnfool still beats replying to markblake or joeclark, they are running kneck and kneck with the real threads around here!
