Hot melt.

I need to hot melt my 1i and LST (both have ports. There’s a gun for $70. Would I also need a swing weight scale?

I need to tweak gear and can’t keep outsourcing this work. Takes too long and they very few I trust, it’d need to be shipped. And then, I’m asking them for a favor/their time which makes me feel awful.

And no. I will not charge my phone

I would get a good SW scale and a good gram scale. I bought both during quarantine to rebuild some things thinking I’ll resell the SW scale but it is so handy to have. I picked up an old Golfsmith one with the solid steel base on FB marketplace for pretty cheap. I’m glad I went that route and not the cheaper Golfworks stuff.

Knowing what I know now, I’ll spend on a Mitchell scale when we move into our house.

ckay Good news and bad news.

Went to FB marketplace to scope gear. Found nothing. But, I’m thinking Mitchell all the way for sure. That’s the good news.

Bad news, saw some 12xw Icon Black (snow whites) brand new for $50. Told the lady I’ll be there this weekend to pick them up.

What the fuck is wrong with me? I wear a size 13 🤦‍♂️ Maybe they’ll fit tho?

bigjohntripod They do tend to run a little big. I think you can make those beauties work. There is NOTHING wrong with you. Don't ever apologize for being awesome!

bigjohntripod WAIT, you know damn well you ain't a size 12. If you're a size 12 I want those OG Jordan golf shoes before Jordan made golf shoes back!

Hotmelting is a sore subject for me, I've had some of the most "professional" of hotmelters totally mess up my clubs, it's such a hit or miss kind of thing, and that's with industrial grade hotmelt equipment.

Be careful!!! lol

Eddie 😬 I’m for sure going to do the research. I’m weeks out from trying it.

Every club I have had hot melted has been a disaster. I have had clubs done through professional club builders and PGA Tour vans. Each time the club was unplayable or felt like shit to me. I have gone away from having it done and just use lead tape since it’s an easy thing to take on and off.

Putterho Broooo those fit!! I need to wear them joints! Tomorrow I rock da J’s that were J’s 🙏
