GolfSpy STUDque 10,139 #1 Posted September 7, 2017 I'm not sure what that black part is called but, as you can see, there's separation between that and the head on a few of my clubs. I can't push it down. Do you guys know how to fix it?Sent from carrier pigeon using MyGolfSpy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

poprocksncoke 1,296 #4 Posted September 7, 2017 Common hair dryer sufficient? Sent from carrier pigeon using MyGolfSpy yes, should be. Just don't melt the ferrule. If you happen to warp the ferrule any just put some acetone on a cloth and spin the ferrule in cloth. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Its a EASY FIXS.. 1st) take a piece of tape (masking is best) wrap just above the ferrule (black thingy ). 2nd) get a small wrench that will go around the shaft but will set on ferrule. (the one in pic is a 10mm) 3rd ) put a dab, a drop or two of super glue between the ferrule & the hossel of club. 4th) tap down into place. Guess there is a 5th. Wipe any excess glue off with alcohol, lighter fluid, grip solvent.. etc. Oh you could wrap a piece of tape around the hossel.. Makes clean up easier. Pull tape off as soon as done . 6 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shankster 19,065 #8 Posted September 8, 2017 Mine look like that on several clubs. Doesn't rattle, so I am a firm believer in if it ain't broke don't break it. Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GolfSpy STUDque 10,139 #14 Posted September 8, 2017 Never thought of using a wrench, great idea!!The first tap did it too. I tapped it from other angles for good measure but it really went down easy. Also, in stunning fashion, the first wrench I grabbed out of my cluttered toolbox was the right size.

GolfJunkie302 2,226 #15 Posted September 10, 2017 Great thread. I have this problem with one of my wedges. I have melted ferrules before, so I was hesitant to apply heat. I'll have to try this. Sent from my SM-T580 using MyGolfSpy mobile app 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bullldog 1,364 #16 Posted September 12, 2017 Just a reminder. Use a touch of super glue, gorilla glue, shaft epoxy. This helps keep it from creeping back up. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GolfSpy STUDque 10,139 #17 Posted September 12, 2017 Just a reminder. Use a touch of super glue, gorilla glue, shaft epoxy. This helps keep it from creeping back up.I used some gel super glue. Maybe a little bit too liberal but the masking tape on the head helped with cleanup. Also, for those curious, the #10 wrench was the perfect size for me.
