Increasing static weight (and maintaining sw)

[koonl]

If there is a club in a set that is well under weight in relation to the other clubs, is it normal to increase this weight by adding it in the butt end, but then counteract the drop in Swingweight by adding more to the head? Obviously there the correct amount will need to be added both ends to get the static and sw correct. I suppose you can get heavier or lighter grips, but there is a limit to how much weight can be shaved off or added to. Are there any other methods?

Thanks

I suppose you could add butt weight and then tip/head weight to get your swingweight back up.

You could also reshaft it with a heavier shaft.

My Rifle 6.0 shafts range from 110g up to 122g. DG S300 are supposed to be 127-130g, but found that they are 122g and my R300 shafts are at 118g. I guess that it's the manufactuer's tolerances that are in play again!

Re: Increasing static weight (and maintaining sw)

Those are the raw weights - you lose ~ 3g/in when cutting them. So if you figure 4" on a PW for tipping plus another 2" off the butt to trim to length, that's 18g off a 130g shaft.
