Bought a very good 716 ap2 wedge from gg. There is a small space between hosel and ferrule. I can't move it over with hot water. This isn't one of the accepted characteristics of a used club? Or would you be mad that a reputable business would try to do this? Or no biggie?

Not a big deal. Doesn't really affect much.

Ferrules serve no real purpose on irons other than cosmetics. One thing that's attractive about early Ping irons - no wasted effort on ferrules.

That extra space is where you put your gum when you are done with it.

I had 2 clubs do this to me. I brought them to golf galaxy. One of the club heads had come unglued and even turned on the shaft (which I didn't even know, but I guess it was slowly moving with shots). The other it was just the piece moving up on the shaft shich he said was just cosmetic (my 8i). My 8i still has that gap (probably 1/4"), no big deal.

    • Two things… QuadMAX Comparison I conducted a test with the R50 against a QuadMAX. I just did ball data, as getting club data on both simultaneously proved difficult. But, I was able to work around the conflicting IR signals or whatever others were experiencing. I'll make a video eventually, but the short-term info is that the R50 was really, really close in VLA, ball speed, total spin, carry, peak height (the last two are just algorithms of course). It was decent at HLA and spin axis.   R50 Club Impact Video Is anyone else as annoyed as I am that the video includes like one or two frames of impact and after, with like six frames before impact? The before impact stuff isn't all that useful - and the after impact stuff isn't enough to see the club twisting much except on egregious heel or toe mishits.
