Brother Trashed My Driver

[RocketSauce]

off topic, but one time, while i was working, i let my older brother bring his 3 former college roommates over to my house so they could ride my jetskis on the lake, and the following day i had to take all 3 jetskis into the shop.... i would be a lil pissed about this too

my bro has the same kinda dent on his cobra speed ld... he dropped an iron on it... i think he hits it better now than when it was brand new... he's not as worried about scuffing it up anymore... as long as there isnt any damage on the face or the hosel... it wont affect your ball striking

i do hate it when people dont take care of other peoples stuff, but yes i would absolutley let him know he is in debt one SUMO. i dont think it would affect your performance, but you paid for a non-dented driver and it would still be undented if he hadnt stepped in.

It should probably play fine but I would want it replaced.

I would suggest that he buy you a new one but here's some advice. Decide how far you want to take this now. It was shady of him to take it without asking but the sad part of it is those things happen. Push how ever far you want but this is your brother and not some jerk you don't know.

+1, I totally agree

True, but since this is his brother he should be more understanding about replacing it becuase he has wronged his sibling. If i were to break something of a family members i would be compelled to replace it.

I'd say if his guilty conscious doesn't get the best of him, or he just refuses to replace it, just let him know that you'll remember this and get him back.

it prob. feels dead because it is a SQ driver. Nike has good irons but i never liked there drivers.

[Fat Slice]

He just bought your driver and he'll pay for it by getting you a new one. Sorry. this is black and white for me - took it without asking, damaged it (even IF only cosmetically), he owes you another one.

I'm pretty much on the same page as everyone else... he just bought a driver, give it to him, go buy a new one or a different one. For what it's worth, my wife has a dent in her driver and she hits the ball just as crappy as before the dent.

Starting to think it was a good thing that I was an only child.

wait till he goes to sleep... then dunk his hand in warm water... and put shaving cream in his other hand while someone tickles his nose... permanent marker moustaches are pretty cool too... but the kicker is when you post it all on youtube

[GDWindowpane]

Call the guy from MTV's Bully Beatdown... I think you get $10K...

[Dpricenator]

Bummer...For what it's worth. I did the same thing to my Hibore XLS, with the first ball I ever swung at. Not sure why, but I tried to kill the ball, and hit it right off the toe. So now I have this dent, but the club still works fine. It's me that doesn't work so well.

If he is your younger brother, then give him a wedgie and take his lunch money until he has paid for a new driver.

If he is your older brother, then consider yourself lucky that he discovered the flaw in that cheap Nike driver for you and be thankful that he even gave it back.

My 6 year old sister decided to take my 60 degree for a spin on some concrete, scratched up the bottom and i haven't hit it good since. It's a quality wedge, and it's vibrating loads! would sanding it be a good idea?

Sounds like it couldn't hurt. FWIW I grind all my wedges until they're perfect for me.

You cant choose your family.

if my brother did that to my driver, i would expect him to offer to replace it. i dont know whether or not i would have him though. if he didnt bring it up to me, i probably just wouldnt make a big deal out of it (as long as there is no real performance issue). just because thats the kind of person i am
