Just picked up the driver in the sig today. After a lot of research and hitting used drivers this was the one for me. My SS is right around 99 mph.

Picked it up for $89. Good buy? Everyone has had nothing but great things about the shaft. I loved it and really lowered my spin rates.

I could use someone's help on this.

After hitting the driver I noticed a slight rattle noise in the club. Let me explain though.

There is nothing loose inside the club. It seems to be one of the weights on the sole It did not come with a tool so I brought it into golfsmith and he tightened up for me.

The only time I hear a different sound is when I hold the club with the grip towards the ground and tap it on the floor. Obviously I wont be doing this but I just want to make sure I will do damage to it.

Thanks

What "different sound" and what weights? The 9064LS has no weights. Out of curiosity what shaft do you have in it? I don't understand your sig 1 bit.

Sorry for late response

This is the driver

And this is the shaft

I sent it in to adams and they are fixing the slight rattle noise coming from one of the weights.

Hope this clears it up for you.

This could even be a case of some redundant epoxy that gave way and is "floating" within the head of the club, causing this slight rattling noise. If this doesn't sound like what it could be, I would honestly ignore it if you do not see anything cosmetically wrong with your club. If you've taken it in for an inspection and they "tightened" something up, there was obviously nothing else wrong with the integrity of your club that could be seen.

As far as whether or not you received a good deal, anything that builds confidence and produces results is a good deal (within reason obviously, i.e. not paying more than the value of the club like a friend of mine did when he bought a used Tom Watson mirror LW off of a random golfer for $40 when they're new at GG for $29.99).

When I bought it used it did not come with anything besides the standard weights. I am interested in changing the length but obviously need to get the other set (spacer/weight)

So far so good. It was an upgrade from my old cleveland HiBore. They said that the rattling noise would not affect playability but I did however read a post Erik wrote about how it could possibly change the swing weight. If that is true, I wanted to send it in regardless because it became a mental thing.

    • Then you have your answer, yeah.
    • After I reread my last post i realized I  wasn’t clear everyone agreed he isn’t welcome back to play with us. The group felt like his actions were bs and he won’t be back playing with our group. 
    • Is just an exception. Is hard to be competitive hitting it just 165 ball speed. If only 1 long hitter plays well that week, he will have a huge advantage of the tee that is really hard to overcome by the short hitter. I remember playing the other day with a "+2" that was averaging 190 ball speed. My modest 260 carry (158 ball) wasn´t even close. Holes I played Driver + 7 iron, he was playing Driver + lobwedge.  Par 5's I wasn't reaching in two, he was reaching them with mid irons.. long hitters play others courses. Of course is not all about length, but it helps a LOT.  
    • As a scratch player I would hate to play a 10, but is always usefull to see better players than you.
    • Not a good presedent, I wouln't let him participate anymore until he pays you. Is a stupid argument from his side and not the rigth person to enjoy a friendly match for money in the future. This should be supported by all the group, if not maybe you are in the wrong group.
