How to Quiet A Driver’S Sound by “Cottoning” It
The Days of The “Thud”
- For years after the advent of the “metal” wood (1979), the hollow heads were foam filled. The reason was two-fold. One was to prevent the faces from caving in. Secondly and most importantly was to dampen the sound at impact as the metal woods were fast replacing wooden woods whose sound what muted or more of a “thud” sound. That lightweight density foam added a goo…
Cotton
- Now back to our potential problem of reducing the sound of a driver. We could look back at our past and consider foam filling the heads. Well that is not exactly an option today as lightweight density foam could easily add 20g back to these voluminous titanium driverheads. And for you do-it-yourselfers, foam filling an existing clubhead is messy. My old workshop had foam that explod…

Next, the plastic stop at the bottom of the hosel needs removed if it doesn’t come out during the shaft removal process. The stop is there to prevent epoxy from entering the head and causing a rattleat a later date. To remove a plastic hosel stop it is as s...

By adding just 3 cotton balls, you will exceed that slightly. Luckily, most golfers have a hard time telling the difference by adding 2-3 swingweights. If you start to add 9 or more cotton balls, then you may want to consid…
