I broke the head of my three wood last night, the shaft snapped right were it comes out of the head. It is a cheap club that came with the set I bought a couple years ago. I know I could take it to a golf pro shop to get it fixed but i would like to try doing it myself. How do i go about doing it? What is the best way to get all the carbon fiber out of the head? Can i just trim the shaft and use the same shaft?

graphite shat??? to get it out of the hosel all I do is take a torch to it and hit up the fibers. Then a drill smaller then the hosel hole will extract the mess. Reuse the shaft. Well if you want to play a considerably stiffer shaft--ok. Otherwise another shaft will do. Perhaps the pro shaft would have a cheap pull lying around. I've inherited plenty of them. Not had to put together.

It will cost you a grip (different shaft), a ferule, and some epoxy. Good way to learn how to build clubs. check out Golfsmith and search forum for procedure. It's a good time

      Swing Thoughts & Mental Game

      The chatter in my brain is when the distance is between clubs since I am pretty weak at shortened backswings, etc. I try to simply decide if being long or short is the better outcome and choose my club based on that and simply not even try for the “real” distance.  For me a full normal swing is what I strive for.

      Swing Thoughts & Mental Game

      I saw this comment made in a golf article... "Most golfers stand over a 4- or 5-iron still negotiating with themselves. They think about how hard to swing, whether they have the right club, if they have the aim correct and more. It’s a lot to deal with and long irons punish the “half-in” golf swing." I am not sure the "most golfers" is correct regarding the bolded part. I can understand if there is a bunker, water, and/or OB that a lot of golfers would be fixated on that. I am not sure that leads to ending up more times there. Pending your level in golf, the variance is so large in outcomes, it could be just with in the expected outcomes. I can understand if have a big lake on the right side of the hole being one of the most terrifying shots for right-handed amateur golfers.  I am not sure many golfers are standing over the ball talking to themselves, "Ok, maybe I should step back and pull the 4-iron. Am I lined up right? Oh, the wind came up, should I swing harder? What am I going to have for dinner tonight, maybe steak. (Joking, somewhat 😛)" A question is that how much chatter do you get while standing over the ball. Are you questioning the everything about your golf shot?
