905s - Broken

[NCGolfer]

During my first round of the year, I lost the middle circle of the bottom of the driver right under the 'l' in Titleist.

The question is now, what should I do? There are a couple shops localy that can fill in the hole, but I want to make sure the weight goes back to what it was...and yes I do notice a difference.

Should I let the local guys do it? Or send it back to Titelist?

I've asked Titleist what you should do. I'll let you know when I hear back from them.

Edit: "The best option would be to have him send it back to Titleist through the local dealer and we would set up a repair."

Ditto what Erik wrote. Titleist will weigh the head to make sure the right weight plug is installed, to keep your swingweight the same.

You need to stop hitting that poor driver so hard...

Just a quickie update. I sent this back for repair and was very, VERY happy with the service I got from Titleist. Expect a quick article in the near future...

Let's just say I could pass the club off as brand new.

I've been told when you send the club back and it's a standard club in stock they just send you a new one and keep the damaged club for tests why their was a failer.

Some companies repair the club and send it back, especially if it's a custom order or has an exotic shaft.

Some companies will send you a new or refurbished club, then have you send your broken club back in the box the new one came in. That way you don't have to go without a club for any period of time. Then they fix the one that you send back, and it goes into the refurb bin for the next guy who needs a repair.

Dave: Glad you had a good experience with Titleist. Looking forward to reading all about it.
