I was playing today (well trying to play) in glen of the downs in wicklow (Ireland) and arrived at the par 3 16th i took out my 9 iron played the shot and to my horror the club head fell off.
the club is a nike pro combo the first ones and not neglected it has a regular graphite shaft and i'm wondering what my options are as I kinda need it

thanks in advance.

The more I practise the luckier I get!

contact Nike directly and see what they tell you. they may send you to your closest Nike dealer and have them exchange it for you. Most manufacturers have great customer service. Let us know how it works out for you.

It sounds like the glue holding the club head to the shaft has come loose - it happens, its not bad manufacturing, and if they will not repair it for free (as it will probably be well out of warranty) or the repair would take to long, it would be a cheap repair job for any local club fitter.

i dont think it was the glue as there is still pieces of the shaft in the clubhead. it actually looks like the shaft has snapped.

p.s does anyone know an average price to re-shaft an entire iron set as they are all stock nike graphite shafts

Oh I see, It all depends on the shaft you want mate, I would look up some prices for you now but I am suppose to be revising for exams :( I will do some research tonight when I get home. :)

      Mizuno Jpx One Driver & Fairway Woods

      I caught a video on this driver; the face tech seems crazy. Looking at the heat map for ball speed, hitting it basically anywhere on the face only loses a few percent ball speed. The surprising and counter intuitive part to me was that for flat faced clubs, ball speed loss is directly proportional to distance loss. For clubs with bulge and roll this is apparently not true. The surprising part of that story being that the max distance potential looks to be a tiny pee sized area for this driver, and I feel in general for drivers. The counter intuitive part being (the myth?) that blade irons have a pee sized sweet spot and missing that tiny spot causes dramatic losses. And that modern drivers, maybe 2017 on, have massive sweet spots and are ultra forgiving. Where in reality, if this heat map data is valid and reliable, it might be a bit of the opposite. This insane tech driver appears to have a pea sized "sweet spot" while Mizuno Pro 241 irons are 28% more forgiving compared to the average of all clubs measured. Not compared to other players irons, compared to all clubs from all categories, players to SGI! The Pro 241 being essentially just a solid chunk of metal with no "tech" at all. Which for me devolves into a whole mess of what is forgiveness really? And in measurable and quantifiable results how many yards, or feet, does that translate into?
