Soft Stepping Black Gold X-100
Soft step twice aproximately will have 1/2 flex softer. However if you said PX 6.0 is a hair to soft, you might want to consider just soft step once. Joe

Fuji Speeder 857 Pro Ti
Don't take a chance! The exposed area has been exposed to heat already, so the chances of snaping it is big. Tipping it to a point where the fresh area to reduce risk is gonna make the shaft play so stiff. Joe

custom fitting and puring? (HELP)
It's not an easy questions to answer IMO. We can't compare them apple to apple. Obviously he is in England w/ cost of living, expenses and rent are much higher than North Carolina ( just example ). Plus if he is that good and famous, you can't compare the rate of Butch Harmon and some local teaching pro ($500 vs $50 per hr ), even i know a lot of them are as good or maybe even better than any famous teachers out there, But Butch is Butch! If you feel it's to far from your reach, Don't even think twice of going there...on the other hand if you want to give it a try and you have the money to burn, why not? Yes, you are entitle to ask around about his reputation but comparing their rate is like asking Butch why his rate is $500 per hr. Plus I don't think Butch can handle his work if his rate is $50 per hr now, he'll be swamp w/ work. just my 2 cents! Joe

Iron refinishing?
Just make sure you take a note on every heads weight before and after one by one. This way you will know how far the weight change and how bad it will effect the play later. Good Luck! Joe

Black Oxide finish on Raw tour wedges
Basically you heat up a solution in a tank and dip the prep heads in the tank for the amount of time required depending on size and transfer it to a penetrating oil solution for final step.

Nope this is a hot tank technique. Heat gun can't be this deep black.

ft-3 reshaft?
I was shock when the customer showed it to me! I've seen to many of them w/ paint chip in the corner of the hosel also. It looks like they are not patient enough and try to yank it to quick or maybe the to much heat till the ferrule collapse/melt and put to much force on the paint. It very important not to let the ferrule collapse/melt to far IMO. Or maybe the fork opening is to wide or not quite 90* angle. O well! :tsg_smilie_rolleyes:

Bending Iron Lofts
More off set look and Less bounce! Major? Maybe if you are a stip swinger, you will dig the course a bit to much...especially on soft condition courses. joe

Milled wedges, milling the face how to?
I know a few machine shop will do it for me but the cost is not practical at all. It's not a Machine shop fault on the cost. They have a minimum charge to make sure it cover their time to work on the club, whether it's only 1 or 20 pieces. The have what they call set up fee. Off course it'll be a lot cheaper when you do 20 pieces at a time.

ft-3 reshaft?
This is a new customer who brought his club to me to ask my opinions what he should do.

ft-3 reshaft?
Here is what happend if you use the wrong technique reshafting this driver. If this is what happend, Then you get a lot of head ache. This customer begging me to fix it for him, i told him to send it back to cally...because the cally ferrule is still intact. I wouldn't touch it! He reshafted this one through cally from NVS to NV.

Rat glue inside the head! Joe

Puring v.s. FLOing
It's coming from a words Flat Line Oscillation, that means the straightest side movement out of the shaft. This way it'll increase your chances to catch the sweet spot more often + Straighter shot. If you combine this method w/ a correct spine position, it will eliminate a toe droop effect during swing. IMO toe droop is the last thing i want to have in the club during swing. Joe

Silencing a Taylor Made r5 Dual MAX
The lighter weight screws have an empty space between the thread and the top part. Fill and wrap that up w/ Rubber band. That will act like a sound absorber.
-
Silencing a Taylor Made r5 Dual MAX
The biggest sound are coming from the crown and sole of the club. A few ways you can mute them: 1. Rubber band on all screws or rubber foam might work to. 2. Rat glue the crown, sole and maybe the face area and try to spread them by heating it slightly to liquify the glue to spread nice and thin. 3. Foam the head. Good Luck! Joe

Puring v.s. FLOing
Puring and Flo'ing are pretty much the same thing and spined is totally different thing. Joe

3 wood shaft help
If you are already balooning your shot w/ Rifle 6.0 which is a mid kick - mid high kick shaft, Why would you want to have another mid kick shaft out of a graphite or light weight steel shaft. You need to at least to a mid high - high kick point shaft to reduce your chances to baloon it, you might want to even consider a lower torque shaft to. joe

Playing characteristics fuji 553 tour spec?
Stiffer tip , mid high kick point and consider low torque. It give you a flat ball flight. Consider one of the best high perfomance light weight shaft IMO. Good luck! Joe
