I want to add some weight to my Razor Hawk driver. Instead of lead tape I want to use a coin. I use a quarter on my fairway woods which is about 5 grams (works perfect for me). I would like to know what a nickel weighs so I can add it to my driver head..(instead of strips of lead tape).I would guess around 3 grams. A quarter feels to heavy on the driver head.  Thanks in advance.

You might consider the GolfWorks Rubber Tungsten Swingweight Tape at $4.95 a pack.

Each 1/2" x 1/2" square weighs 2 grams - good for one swingweight point.
