Walterjn As you all know, I have been working on building a driver. I picked up the head for $100.00 on Facebook marketplace. I also picked up a House of Forged Quicksilver shaft from Rex here. Well, this last Tuesday I got everything put together and let epoxy cure. And here is the finished product. Last of all here is the difference in size between the new Srixon, the 8° Palmer, and the 11° Callaway knockoff. Thanks for all the advice, and cajoling! You guys are fantastic, and I love it here! A big thank you to Rex for putting up with my questions, annoying emails, and most of all being the great guy he is!
Par4QC Walterjn Good job! That's a confidence inspiring head, beside the others, is it not? You would think it will go 100 yds. farther.....will it???? 🤔 And, nothing is ever irritating/annoying in emails from forum members.
Tcafla Walterjn no it just means you will become friends from with the fedex, ups and Usps delivery people.
Toulon Walterjn Soon, you will only look at clubs wrong before you're begging to trade them to someone on this forum. Some you will swing, once or twice, and some you'll actually use and maybe even love but will be dealing them off in the search for the holy grail. What a time to be alive. Welcome to the madness.
Walterjn azgreg hahahahahaha. Well, at least there is a great bunch of people here to commiserate with!!
mikeintopeka Walterjn - Just think how much money you SAVED! (parroting the same reasoning my wife uses when she buys stuff at sales.)
Walterjn mikeintopeka honestly, I spent under $200 on this driver. I have seen used Callaway, Taylormade, Ping, and Cobra drivers for $250.00+. So, I have saved about $50.00 and gotten to learn how to build a newer club( minus grip installation).
KCee Walterjn So, I have saved about $50.00 and gotten to learn how to build a newer club( minus grip installation). You'll probably save at least that much on the other 12 drivers you build....it's a slippery slope! 🤣
Walterjn Par4QC thank you! Not sure I could have done this without your guidance. It really is confidence inspiring, as far as go 100 yards past what the 2 others can get, I can only hope... I hope to find out tomorrow, providing I can get to the range. Rex, that last bit almost sounds like a challenge..🤣
LBlack14 Par4QC And, nothing is ever irritating/annoying in emails from forum members. 😡 Not what ya told me. 🤔
Walterjn Bravopilot don't you start tempting me!!! I happen to have blue pearl mixed up with a nice acrylic clear!!
Walterjn Tcafla I already know UPS and FedEx peoples. I get to occasionally help a friend with her skateboard business. Last year she sold 2500 skateboard decks in a week and had to pack up the orders and ship them out. I got to help with that. UPS and FedEx were picking up pallets a day, every day...
Par4QC LBlack14 That was only because you kept me up til 4 a.m. & I had to clock in at 7 a.m.. The good ol' days! 👍
