I am wondering if it would be possible to bend a titleist 585.PT hybrid or a 906.F2 fairway wood. The fairway is 15* and the hyrbid is 18*, and i wanted to deloft the fairway 1*. Is this possible, and is there a chance of damage?

I think there is a way to shim the hozel it to get the desired loft, but bending is out of the question with hollow headed woods and hybrids. They don't have the strength to undergo that kind of torque. Ask a club fitter for a definite answer.

Any club can be bent. That being said I would never do it for you because there is a big chance that it will break. The previous poster is almost right, they can be bent but it is very touchy. I know that you can buy a ferrual with a shim built in for TM drivers and woods but they are .350 tip diamater were I think all the Titlest stuff is .335 not sure might be worth asking golfworks or golfsmith if they have somthing for Titlest

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Current state of the program.  I can only do 25-50% swing speed, probably under 50% since I was hitting the ball out to the 150 yard marker (yay!),  to get the arms down and somewhat turn the body through impact. I mean somewhat. Arms down + body turn don't like to mesh at all. Anything faster and the body does stupid uncoordinated stuff. Mostly, I am stuck in the old pattern of staling the turn and flipping at the ball.  So, until I see progress. I am not posting anything here.

      Thanks for the video! Do you think a ball between the arms type of training aid would get me in a better position? I also have a Tour Striker Swing Trainer (PlaneMate-like contraption) if that could be helpful.

      There are some little things here and there — the shoulder turn is a bit flat, and the arms move around you a bit too much too. Take a look at this video:

      Ugly elbow in question
    • gestate0560
      My Swing (Gestate0560)

      By gestate0560 · Posted

      I've developed a serious case of the shanks and difficult to control push fades/slices with my irons lately. I used to draw my irons pretty consistently. I currently most draw driver. Also, I don't like how my elbow sometimes pops out from down the line, especially with driver and/or if I'm trying to hit it harder. I can control the elbow a lot better with irons, but quite difficult to have good contact and speed while controling it on driver.
