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.

    • Day 29 - good 45 minute session at range, 20 minutes putting with compass drill from 3', 4', 5'. 20 minutes of chipping work, focused on working different ball flights.
    • Day 50: 1/30/2025 Back home again, today. Got to do some full speed swings hitting balls into the garage net.
    • Something just popped into my head, based on your mention of the folks who "know the rules" but are generally wrong.  Another comment I read was "the Rules ALWAYS said.....".  When I come across those I often go to  www.ruleshistory.com to see if the rules ever said that.  You can find every (almost?) version of the rules since the first set in 1744.  Its fun to return to the conversation and say "You're a little bit right, the rules said that at one time, but that changed in 1984.  You've been playing under the wrong rule for 40 years!"  
    • Hi, checking back in to see if any St. Louis area golfers get together for a round or three during the year.  I have recently dropped my membership in a local league this year to work on my game and meet other people.  I would love to hear from anyone that would be interested in meeting for a round in the St. Louis area.   Rick
