Ive got a mizuno mx 500 driver.

The shaft it a mizuno exsar 50 regular.

I was on the 12th tee, and i hit the floor whilst taking my shot.

It split from where the head joins the shaft, and up by 2inches.

Is it a fault?

how do i get it sorted?

can i send it back to mizuno and get it fixed FAST and CHEAP?

Fast Replysss!

Thank you!

You either need to contact mizuno directly or go back to where you bought it and see if they will replace it. How badly did you hit the ground? How long have you had it for?

I bought it 2nd hand form golfbidder, a pga certified website auction.

The ball went about 290 and off the the right slightly, so a fairly good hit, but i went for it quite a bit, and i hit the floor at impact quite hard, enough to make a largeish divot.

Seeming i bought the club of an auction site, i dont think i could send it to them, although i need to know from anyone with this experience, and how long it takes if i send it off to the manufacturer, and if it costs.

Thanks again,

Nick

Ditto. You're probably out of luck since you bought it used.

I'd just contact a local club repairman. That'll be the fastest turnaround time for you.

      How Much Water do You Need to Drink?

      By Elmer ·

      I get kidney stones. So 100 oz of water every day. Some nights I drink 32oz between midnight and 6 Am. Which means I dont sleep much.

      How Much Water do You Need to Drink?

      By TN94z ·

      I don’t measure my intake either. I generally have a black coffee, a bottle of soda, some sweet tea at home, and anything in between is water. An ice cold bottle of water is one of my favorite things. It feels like an immediate refresher for my body. I’ll admit that I need to drink a little more though.

      This Guy Is Blatantly Sandbagging!

      By imsys0042 ·

      For such a nice membership, there have been some bad incidents in the past few years.  We had someone voted out a couple of years ago over something he did and he harassed the board members for three months until he moved out of the area.   Generally they’ve tried to do things like tournament handicaps and identify certain people who they know should be lower and adjust it somehow.  I can understand not wanting to go thru something like the guy who was voted out again i emailed the pro who forwarded it to the handicap committee.  They are going to see what can be done.  I walked someone thru what happened and they are going to nudge him to post the score from the match and see what he does.  Since he didn’t put anything in the electronic scoring past 13, based on how he played 14 and 15 plus having to take bogey on 16-18 for after he left, he should post 83.  We’ll see if it’s even higher,   Since he was really even thru 13, then doubled 14 and parred 15 my guess is he really shot 75 being generous and giving him 2 pars and a bogey on the three holes he didn’t play.    i shot 88, getting 16 shots for my course handicap which is net even and I lost on 13.  We do brackets where handicaps should be within 4-5 of each other.  Most matches only have 1-2 shots as a difference between players  neither of us posted the score yet.  There was something in the match play rules about whether or not to post your score.  I couldn’t remember if we were supposed to or not.  I don’t think he was going to post that, because even with his inflated score it would be the lowest score in his recent 20. Lucky I didn’t because they want to see what he does post and they don’t want me posting so he can try to calibrate his score.
