Played a round this past weekend and the head of my 5 iron flew clean off the shaft during a swing. Any recs on where to get it fixed? Clubs are about 10 years old

Give Robert Patt a call. He lives near Greystone. If it's repairable, he'll repair it for you.

Greystone


That course is my kryptonite. It should be so simple but for some reason my scores blow up there - shows what a weak golfer I really am.

Patt would need to repair every club because I would break them all out there!!

I used to hate Greystone for that reason. It's not a bomber's paradise. But I've come to love/hate/respect it because if you can play well there, your game will travel to most other flat courses. The only thing it doesn't prepare you for is elevation. Distance control off of uphill and downhill lies to raised or lowered greens isn't something you can figure out on just about any LA course.

Did the shaft break or is it still intact? If it didn't break, sand the tip clean and use a round file to clean out the hosel, get some Loctite at Wal Marks and reinstall it.

If you do this rotate the shaft as your putting it in so the glue gets evenly distributed.

I’ll be in Mandeville tomorrow. Can you repair a 3 wood?. Graphite shaft snapped. Where are you located?

There's a little more to changing out a snapped graphite shaft than simply reapplying epoxy on an iron head.

Is it an adjustable hosel or fixed hosel?

Fixed. Better off just buying a new club?

Not necessarily. But the correct diameter shaft would need to be on-hand and prepped. Possibly a ferrule as well

Just clean it up and epoxy it back in. Sandpaper and epoxy from Lowes or Wal Mart. Simple. Put a little epoxy into the shaft itself, then rub it on the sanded part below the hosel and put it in and set up for 24 hrs.
