Won't that mess up the weight of the club? And doesn't black electrical tape on a club look more stupid than a ball mark?

Heck no, your putting too much into this weight thing (swing weight is just a number that don't mean sh*t). If you can tell 1g difference (if that) from a piece of tape....and no actually it don't look bad. I'll peel that piece of tape off and have a clean head while you'll still have your idiot mark for life.

My son borrowed my new driver a couple weeks ago and left two big sky marks on the top. I rubbed a little automotive rubbing compound on the marks and in two seconds the club was as good as new.

I'm going to give this a shot, I have some Meguiar's Cleaner Wax that I can try as well. If I really have to, I'm going to break out the buffer...that mark is really bothering me

Black electrical tape does look okay.....especially to guys gaming the Sumo and Dymo sticks that already have the matte black finish on them.

I wish other manufactures would go with the matte finish, too. No shine....no glare.....easy to touch up.

Yeah, I love my burner except for the finish. My dad's XLS has that awesome finish on it and it seems to be impossible to chip. He hasn't gotten one chip yet lol I've already got a skymark. My touch up job is probably the absolute closest match I could possibly get without sending it in for a refinishing. It looks really clean.

I think it looks silly. And since when was glare a big problem in golf?

Also, how does having electrical tape on the top of your club not scream "I make so many idiot marks that I have to cover the top in tape"?

Silly? Whatever dude, when you try, buy, sell and trade alot of equipment and you let people try before buying it makes a few sales and saves crowns on alot of clubs. I'd rather have my tape on my crown when I let somebody like you hit my clubs so as to not have to take a loss because of YOUR idiot mark.

Not sure where you are located, but this is one of the shops that the local Golfer's Warehouse here sends clubs to be reconditioned to.

http://www.aggolfclub.com/

$25 to refinish an entire driver head + $10 to ship it back to you.

Great work, and friendly to deal with.

Good luck.

Wait you've removed skymarks with that stuff? Or just light scratches? I went to the range last night and my friend put a small dent in the crown of his driver. He has all Walter Hagen Clubs. Does anyone know of a way to cover up a dent? I was thinking maybe bondo like they use on cars but idk how good it would stay on.

I have removed skymarks. Works well.

Luckily I was using ghost tape on it.

Peel and replace....no worries.

    • 12 July 25 - Got invited to a Sat morning round with some friends.  Was a decent round - sort of a pre-tournament round for the 1st of Aug.  Best play of the day - lost ball off the tee on 7.  Took the drop, hit 3rd onto the green, missed the par putt by 3 inches short - middle of cup.  Was a good bogie recovery.  Learned a valuable lesson - the wedge is your friend, the collars on the greens are just long enough that they kill the putter (unless you hammer it).  Back to more of those nice chip and roll drills. &nbsp
    • Day 357: played 27 holes. +6 total - pretty pleased. Only negative was missing the hole 3 times from within 4 feet…
    • Day 1: 7/12/25 exactly 60 minutes of chipping practice. Unlikely to be able to practice very much but sure had a blast today!
    • Didn't score better, but made better swings on the course today. I found a bit of success on range pre-round, just hitting like what felt like 60-70% shots. It was more right elbow and right wrist angles in the downswing. Driver took a bit to work out the giant toe push draws I was hitting.
    • Played in the first round of Shawnee Hills  course tournament. went 42+46. Just lost energy on the back nine.  Lots of pars and way too many big scores. Course has a lot of areas to lose a golf ball. This is the adjusted score.  I had to return to the tee twice. The first the guy I played with didn’t tell me my ball bounced into the trees behind the green. 😡 the 2nd one I hit a decent draw over the corner of a slight dog leg left. I didn’t know 15-20 yards from the fairways was nasty weeds. I also 4 putted and 3 putted a few times. I flubbed like two chips. Too long of backswing.  I was happy with my ball striking. Probably B-. Found a bit of something on the range before the round. I’m starting to actually feel my right arm position better with what I am working on. I striped some irons today.
