ode I remember getting some GD Pershing shafts on the cheap from DTG and they had slots cut in the tip....🤔....I called CS and they refunded my $ and I kept the shafts. After peeking at the callaway irons I googled bore thru and watched a few tutorials on YT for sh1ts and giggles, and peeked at a few threads and learned that the slots are to allow the tips to compress and make it through the bore. Dunno if it's necessary with steel, but FYI!
sdandrea1 ode I saw those videos. Thanks Chad! Callaway cuts the slots in steel shafts, but the graphites i have pulled from Callys did not have slots cut. I think it's optional. The set of Big Bertha I irons did last year and sold to a neighbor are in play several times/week and are holding up fine. I don't have the tools (or skill) to make those tiny cuts. I'm planning to hand sand a little taper on the lower tip and just get a snug fit. Top half of the hosel is snug and centered by a special ferrule.
Spuzz sdandrea1 I'm planning to hand sand Do you wear a mask? You should. That's my PSA for today 🙂
sdandrea1 Spuzz Do you wear a mask? I actually do and I have my shop vac rigged up right under my bench motor so it grabs the graphite dust and Scotchbrite shavings. I changed my mind and bored the hosels parallel. The fit is fine.
Rickochet sdandrea1 I changed my mind and bored the hosels parallel. The fit is fine. I have had some graphite wood shafts that have been pulled and abraided so many times there was a noticeable wobble when dry fit in the hosel. Using shafting beads and a good shafting epoxy (Hardman) I have never had a failure. Using a reaming bit I bought from ValueGolf years ago I get zero wobble after reaming.
Par4QC johnnydoom Had them in the cart this a.m. and decided I have plenty of balls now. Sweat pouring down my face as I emptied my cart. 😰
johnnydoom Par4QC I put them in a cart 2 days ago and decided against it. They sent me a reminder yesterday and I ignored it. They sent me another today with an additional 10% off and triggered the ho button push reflex.
Par4QC johnnydoom They sent me another today with an additional 10% off I told my wife I was waiting for that email myself! Still haven't got it. ðŸ˜
Typhoon LogicalOne I knew you’d like it Kelly. I’ll have to take a pic of the old school Boss 302 for Meagain.
meagain Typhoon l Boss 302 Used to use them for traction in 1970. Sure miss those days. Went just about every night to a drive in restaurant (car hops). Cruised around town, cruised through our local amusement park (you could drive right down the middle of it). Good old days, never be like it again. So many hot cars were around my area.
meagain backinit 3 boxes of Sig Sauer 9mm hollow points. Where did you find them. Nothing available around here, and I mean nothing. Never seen anything like it.
LogicalOne Belt sander, belts, ferrules, galvanized pegboard with accessories, mixing cups and some Nike Shox......
