Here’s my question. If they have a weight to them as is and you want to do this when you remove the shafts from the club head and there’s a tip weight why not just use it instead of having to use all new ones and re weigh everything
Hi Ryan, another great video. Not to nitpick, because it's obvious that you are very thorough, would you not wipe down the hosel of the club head with acetone (or blow it with air) after using the wire brush? As some bits of residue may still be in there?
I could never trust myself lining up logo with grooves like that. I always feel like it need to look down on the club, so end up using those clips that hold head to shaft.
Couldn't you just weigh the old swing weight you remove on a scale to know which new weight to use? Even with some resin present, should be able to get reasonably close I would assume? Most of us don't have equipment to measure club swing weight.
I also noticed that the set on the wall that the grips were not aligned. One of the grips you could see the logo. Wouldnt you align the head with the logo all facing the same way?
DexterBoots09 the other set on the wall is waiting to be built. You can tell because they don’t have the ferrules on them. When you have more than 1 set to do, you often times just prep each set all at once then set them off to the side to be built. Makes the process a lot faster.
Hi Wesley, Ryan here. Thanks for watching the video and asking a great question. Yes, there is certainly a case to be made for reusing the factory tip weights. The problem is the amount of time it takes to clean them out vs. the cost of just using new ones. Based on the potential for changing the final swing weight I wanted to use new ones which is also best practice.
i wish you would do my clubs for me! I've been looking at getting new Ferrules for my P790's but im not an expert when it comes to dissembling clubs....
Where are the ferrules from? They don't look like they are collared ferrule and I believe titleist irons use collars. Has this changed or is it not absolutely neccessary?
Oh my God. For anyone watching, please never just stick a random size drill bit in your club to clean the old adhesive out. This is wrong for so many reasons.
So two things you did wrong. They seem small but they throw things off for a picky client. First of all you didn't use any centering beads. Secondly you leaned the club against the wall to dry. What does skipping the centering beads and leaning the club against the wall result in is a club head that is not centered on the shaft. Leaning the club against the wall will lead to the club head tilting with the bottom of the hosel pushed against the back of the bore and the top of the hosel pushed against the front of the bore. This is made worse by not having the centering beads in the epoxy! So the resulting club will have a lie angle change due to the tilt of the shaft in the bore of the hosel. i worked both at Hotsticks in Arizona and was the lead builder who created the custom build shop for KZ golf when they were in North Hollywood, Ca. if you use the centering beads and actually have a rack or table to lay your clubs down on while drying you will end up with the shaft being centered in the hosel bore and your lie angle being what it was bore as long as the previous build did his job correctly. I can look at a custom built club and see if this was done correctly on the finished club by looking closely at the ferrell. If it was done right before you trim the ferrell there will be an even lip all around the hosel. If it was done wrong you can see one side of the ferrel will have a bigger lip than the other. Usually the back side will have the bigger lip.
Shaft beads are only used when there is play in the hosel, if the shaft O.D. is tight against the hosel I.D. then where do you expect the centering beads to go? Clearly you don't have the experience to call this gentleman out..
@@k2sumner and btw, that difference in tolerance is literally designed for centering beads. Anyone who claims to know anything about clubs should be aware of this.
I finished this video just to see how many times you mispronounced "process". Also, RIP to those poor clubs. Never just stick a drill bit into a head like that and then use absolutely no centering beads when gluing.
