Hi there guys, after having my new grafalloy prototype hot pink golf shaft fitted to my ping g5 driver i have recently noticed that either the head is slowly coming loose or its just the hosel coming away from the head, the head is a .350 and the shaft tip is .335 but the place that fitted it said they do these adapter things that allow these different sizes to actually fit. after it came loose the first time i took it back to the range to have it re-placed, but the same problem has occured again and the hosel is about 1cm away from the club head and really looks like its going to come off, does anyone know where i could get a better job done?? within England...... cheers for any replies!

It really is sweet to look at, i have sooo many good things said about it on the golf course and especially at the driving range, i get sooo many strange looks at the golf range near me.... as i play cross handed for all my shots (yeah its unreal left hand below right for a right handed swing! haha) playing with a hot pink shaft just like bubbas and still manage to boom it 330, and who cares, as long as i can outdrive them all no-one can rip me for it haha, yeah its great, i just need it fixing properly

You might let Andrew Espin the pro at Disley GG Stockport have a look. I've used him for years for re-shafts that I can't/don't want to do myself. He is one of the old school who still loves clubmaking. Also you could have a word with Shaun at Midas Golf Huddesfield.

      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.

      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.
