Added some side-by-side comparison pics of the Amp Cell with other irons in the Amp Cell Irons Review thread
-
Shot my best round of the year yesterday. Finally getting the Adams CMB irons dialed in...just in time to switch to the Amp Cells
-
Figured it would be good to link in your thread on how to edit a picture and resize the file as well... Picmonkey: Free Online Photo Editor Also you should have named this thread after Richard

Played 36 yesterday and supposed to be 70's and sunny all week. Golf season is hopefully here to stay (for at least a week)
-
Looks like we are going to be 0 for 2 on trying to start golf league. It's snowing again
-
I feel like a kid waiting for Christmas morning right now. Can't wait for tomorrow
-
I have two tee times this weekend!! Weather permitting of course and if the snow melts, but I'm hopeful
-
I think I just saw a Tuantuan run through the yard, feels like Hoth out there
-
Yes, we are having Thunder Snow right now
-
Winter store warning and predicting up to 6" of snow with rain/ice mixtures as well. I don't think my course is going to be opening on Friday
-
It's snowing right now...

Anyone live near Punxsutawney, PA? I'd appriciate it if you could go punch Phil in the head for me

Congrats guys! Looking forward to the reviews and sorry, but I can't resist this one... I'm jealous -ier!!
-
I think you are good to go then. If you read the fine print it actually says "We'll send you a hybrid but you have to send it to hckymeyer when done reviewing"

Waiting for Christmas morning is a breeze compared to waiting for golf season with new clubs sitting next to you!!

6.4 RBZ 14.5° w/ Grafalloy BiMatrix S flex Rescue '11 18° with Oban Kiyoshi 100 04 flex I was also going to go with MBP-ier, but I see that it's taken already Plus I don't think anyone could actually be more MBP-ier than the original. So depending on the timing of club arrival the beginning of my review could be much snow-ier or cold weather-ier than normal leading to more of an AboutGolf Simulator-ier review for the first couple sessions before getting onto the course.

Excited to start my iron build. Finally got all my parts, tools, and supplies!!
-
2 1/2 months since I swong a club, but played 18 on a simulator today and it felt great!

A Question about tip weights
hckymeyer replied to Mr_Theoo's topic in Club Making/Repair & DIY Projects
Just going to sum it up here. You don't need to use tip weights. They are just a tool used to dial in a certain swing weight when you are building the clubs. Another popular method would be using tungsten powder. The powder is poured down the shaft until you get the desired weight and then you shove a cork down the shaft to hold it in place. If you aren't building your irons to any particular spec then you don't really need them. I will add in the obligatory remark about getting fit though. I'd highly recommend finding out what works best for you, then you can always use those specs to build up your new set. As BK already said you don't have to glue everything in right away. It's best to dry fit everything together and make sure you have the swing weight you want before you glue it up. Just make sure you have the grip installed when measuring the swing weight. -
Definition of torture: Getting a new set of irons a week into the offseason and not getting to hit them for 4 months!!

Off Season Day 5: Can't believe it's been 5 days since I swung a club. Starting to get the golf shakes...Only 4 more months to go

Played my last round of the year on Wed and it was definitely a tale of two nines. Went out in 48. Couldn't make a putt with the belly and pretty didn't hit anything else either. Had three doubles and 6 bogeys. It was terrible. Came home in 39. Started hitting everything well and making some putts. Only had one birdie, but I'll take a 39 pretty much anytime.

My wife wants me to ask what kind of boots those are. She wants a pair now...thanks

Obviously tough to tell without looking, but more often than not it's some dried glue that broke free. Unscrew the shaft and see if the rattle is from the club head or from the shaft. Also double check all the screws and make sure they are tight. If it's in the shaft it's probably glue, if it's in the club head then someone else will have to give you ideas cause it's out of my league. If it really is in the shaft you can try heating it up with a heat gun to re-melt the glue and get it to stick. Or just pull the grip and see if anything will fall out the end.
