Hello all. 

A bit of a newb question. My driver head comes off so you can change loft. I need to clean it and feel it be convenient to remove the head and clean it.  

Is this bad for the club removing the head frequently? Should I just clean while on the shaft? 

Thanks all. 


I've removed my driver head many times (easily double digits) for various reasons and haven't had any problems. It is also 8 years old.

At the same time… Why remove it? Every time you remove it you risk slightly further wearing out the threads, or something else happening.

To see the differences in ball flight... how it looks at address in the different settings. Also different shafts. Turns out I ended up using standard loft and lie...Ahh also forgot removing it for air travel in a soft case...

I meant to quote the OP.

    • I'd just get the Stack Radar. I've never been totally comfortable with how it measures, those things. I think people put them in the wrong place. I think it's highly sensitive to where you swing… if you swing the tip end through the radar "beam" (it's not a beam, but you know what I mean I think), you get the true speed. But if you swing the spot 6" up the shaft through the beam, you get a much slower speed. For the wedge stuff alone I recommend the Stack Radar. Plus data entry is SOOO easy.
    • Does anyone else have the swing speed radar and had the experience of it going completely haywire? It’s been decent for me until the last 2 weeks. I’m now getting readings on back to back swings that are 20 mph off. I’m getting absolute garbage from it - I have to swing many times to get something close to right. The only thing that works (sometimes) is taking the batteries out. Here's the radar I'm talking about: Amazon.com : Swing Speed Radar - Achieve Longer Drives - Delivers Precise Golf Club Swing Speeds from 20 to 200 MPH. Master Consistency with Our US Made Doppler Radar Training Tool for Instant Speed Results : Golf Swing Trainers : Sports & Outdoors Thinking about just biting the bullet on a stack radar at this point.
    • Sorry, I missed your original post. Glad things are looking up with your wife's cancer. That's scary. Hope you can get back in to swing of things this year. I travel to Richmond quite a bit for son's soccer. I will reach out to see if we can get out together during one of the visits.
