Ground Hog

I was wondering if any of you club makers out there have any of the old specs for trimming the KBS MAX 85 and 90 regular flex shafts. I contacted KBS and they couldn't give me the exact data. Must have been a newbie behind the phone. My situation is that I bought a set of MAX 90 regular and put them into an old backup set of Callaway Apex heads and they seemed stiffer than they should. KBS told me the length from the tip of a raw shaft to the first step was 12". They also told me that they "thought" the trimming instructions for the 9 iron was 3" off the tip. But when I measured my 9 iron that was installed into the Callaway Apex it was 6 1/2 ", instead of the 9" required. Now I am wondering if I got ripped off on this used set of shafts. Thanks for any replies. Ground Hog

My putting has been suffering too, and have been thinking about going to a putting lab. I appreciate your review of the process at Club Champion. We have a store in my town that I will check out. I acquired a Scotty Cameron mallet two years ago. At first I performed well with it, but lately it has let me down. It is shorter than putters I have used in the past. I thought it might let my arms extend more at address. My miss is to the right. I have used plumber's neck, double bend and center shafted putters in the past. Always had the right miss. My latest gamer is a blade (significantly toe down) that has the toe up slightly at address. I have used left hand low for many years. During this period of poor putting, I even went back to conventional at times. Golf is a mystery at times.

I live in Kansas City, not far from you and it is generally very humid here in the summer. I alternate two to three all-weather gloves during a round in the summer. After about 3-4 rounds they get greasy from sweat. Then I wash them with a strong detergent and water by hand with a brush, inside and out. Let them dry and they are about as good as new. Believe it or not, this same method works on cabretta leather gloves also. Another thing I do is wear nylon sleeves to absorb the sweat from my arms before it runs down into my hands. Hope that helps

Yes. Snell balls Test before you buy or you might be in for buyer's remorse. The equipment tests are a big help. No not really A bad day of golf is always better tan a good day at work.
