LEAD TAPE / WHERE TO STICK IT ON YOUR GOLF CLUBS?

[@glynnrodgers8778]

I honestly hadn’t thought about lead tape for years, but I was struggling to produce even a slight draw with my Cobra F9 Speedback driver (9 deg). Long story short, I settled on the most upright setting (10Draw), heavy weight forward and added 6 grams of weight towards the heel. This came after testing several different configurations. Result was really surprising. I’ve gained 15-20 yards distance. More importantly, I’m not worried about OB right anymore. Sad part is that I’ve played this driver for 4 years and have just now unlocked its potential for me. Low single digit handicapper old dog learning new tricks! Thank you!

[@tlazur]

From what i've read, over time, a drivers face thins. This will add more distance and possibly make it illegal for tournament play. My callaway x460 is bound to be illegal and I can hit it just as far as my rogue or speedzone.

[@johnveroutsos]

Great stuff! During the COVID lock-downs I started experimenting with my clubs. I once tried The Heavy Putter some years ago and loved it so I figured... hmmmm why not do something like that?. To give everyone a good laugh... I removed my putter grip, used some left-over rebar of small diameter I had kicking around and fit it inside the putter shaft. I epoxied it so that it doesn't rattle. My putter is now incredible!! People ask me to try it and can't believe the results! It's an old Ping putter (copper-beryllium I think) and love the look of it. Funny stuff but hey, I putt much better.

[@Labgorilla]

Lead tape has hugely transformed the performance of my driver. With all the weights and expensive cartridges. It turns out that lead tape was what I needed. Few driving range session and few bit of lead tape. Incredible difference. I like my driver head to weigh around 204g. New drivers are often wayyyy too light and although I can swing them faster , I don’t feel where the head is at all.

[@teegolf3672]

Where do you add lead tape on a putter?

[@blartnosecrenshaw]

@@teegolf3672 Best to put it on the sole, spread across evenly. If you have a cavity-back (Anser type) you can out some in the cavity for a tiny bit more feel.

[@JackRainfield]

Another element is I've heard that many tour pros will put lead tape on the toes of their clubs to help induce a fade and prevent the quick closing of the face that leads to a hook. I think it was Justin Thomas that I heard talking about this.

[@hoppman6649]

On a wedge, will adding some lead tape help with distance and flight? If I want a little lower flight, do you put the tape higher or lower?

[@EFGMC]

Best option to change flight is to bend the loft down a bit. Lead tape may or may not change your ball flight.

[@pbode1]

Interesting stuff, I just started out on my new driver. My old driver was (although not explicitly advertised) way more draw biased, this one wants to fade a little more, but I am also doing some swing changes that have made me straighten my path but open the face to path for reasons yet unclear. put 4g on the heel, not seeing significant change yet after hitting 16 shots on the range, but the head feels heavier, which is not unpleasant. Luckily my launch monitor is not reporting any clubhead speed drop.

[@davidkimpton8929]

Hey AJ, Noted lead tape location has negligible impact on COG location (for irons). It also has some impact on MOI properties, and this might effect how the individual swings the club. I'm not convinced that it doesn't matter where you put the tape on irons... I'm sure you have seen the Edel wedge system - the premise there is that moving weight around has a substantial impact. Interested to know your thoughts on this.

[@EFGMC]

Don't disagree with any of that. Many wedge designs have a moving cg that gets closer to the high toe side as loft goes up, but that requires moving a good bit of weight around in the head. At a certain weight, you no doubt will see a difference, but most people aren't going to be using enough tape for that to really happen. It's also difficult to pinpoint enough tape in one spot unless you use very small strips and build them up 10 deep or more.

[@davidmayo3368]

My first hybrid, I was hooking like crazy when I first got it. Put some lead tape out by the toe, and voila! No more hooks! I have never taken it off.

[@jherl8307]

Very useful and informative vid. Use of lead tape is a game changer for us finicky golfers. One thing I don’t believe you alluded to when placing lead tape on a driver is if you place the lead tape on the back of the head toward the heel it will promote a draw and conversely if you place it on the toe it promotes a fade. I even place lead tape out toward the toe of my putter because my right hand tends to flip the putter head closed on I pull outs as a consequence. Lead tape on the toe of my putter prevents the flipping action and my putts go straighter.

[@nickpritchard7130]

I feel that maybe I'm not playing as well because my clubs are not for me. Second hand from my son. Again can I get fitted with what I k ow or should O get more lessons before hand? Thank you . I love your channel

[@EFGMC]

Really depends on what parts of your game are good and which need help. I think if you are consistent enough to break 100, a fitting can help. Don't know that you need an overly elaborate fitting, but a solid standard fitting looking at length, lie, loft, shaft weight, flex, grip size.

[@roadtoscratchgolf3481]

Nice video, AJ. Quick question: I had regular shafts with medium size grips and 3 wraps and went to a jumbo grip with 1 wrap plus I added Arccos sensors to the butt end. What does this do the the weight of the irons? Should I have them rebalanced or counter-balanced? How does it affect my swing?

[@EFGMC]

So all the weight you are adding is on the butt end of the club so you are lightening the swing weight. Usually a jumbo grip will weigh more than midsize unless you are switching brands and construction type. Your swing weight will be lighter, but the static club weight will be heavier. This may or may not influence your swing. If you are having problems feeling where the club head is during your swing, you might want to try some lead tape on the head to see if that helps.

[@roadtoscratchgolf3481]

@@EFGMC thanks for the prompt reply. I certainly don’t need to lighten my swing. I already have a hard time feeling where the head is. I’ll try adding some tape to see if that makes a difference, and report back to you on my findings. Again, thanks.

[@firstnamelastname6038]

Great upload! How much lead tape should I add to my irons when counterbalancing a mid size grip over a standard size grip? Thanks.

[@EFGMC]

Depending on the grip you probably loose 3 SWPs going into midsize. 6g of tape will balance that back out. However I wouldn't just assume you need the same SW as you had before. Even though the scale will tell you the same SW as before, you've added about 20g to the static club weight. That's a significant amount. I would start with a couple grams of tape on the head and see how your consistency is, then keep adding or taking away tape until you find the best result.

[@davidjennings6937]

Good video good information. Am I understanding correctly that if I put lead tape on the butt end of a shaft ( 3 wood) I could lower the swing weight? How far down the shaft should I apply the tape?

[@EFGMC]

You would need to go under the grip if you want to actually drop the swing weight. The fulcrum of the SW scale is 14 inches, from the butt end of club so you would need the tape to be under the grip.

[@nolangonzalez3249]

Does it lower ball flight raise ball flight? Thanks AJ, keep up all the good work and informational videos for us gearheads.

[@EFGMC]

The Mr. Shortgame colab was about using a different shaft setup to change ball flight characteristics. Wedges will be much the same as irons. You have a limited amount of space to add tape to and the wedge heads are very heavy so the change in weight is going to be quite small unless you add well over 10g of tape for instance. Just add the tape to the middle portion of the head for weight. If you want to change the trajectory, bend the loft.

[@therealbeedubbs35]

I’ve added 4g to 5g of weight to he back of my 20 year old driver because I can’t hit the new large ones. It goes, far and straight. I outdrive my 20 year old son when I hit it flush. And when I don’t I’m only 10 to 15 yards behind him. (He crushes it every time) back in my high school days there weren’t adjustable clubs and I always used lead tape. Recently went back to using it on the driver like I said and also been adding to my wedges and a few others. Been a game changer. I wish I only went back to using it years ago

My goal is to keep same swing weight but flatter ball flight for shallower decent angle. I have the aerojet and it has the 12 gr weight in the back. If I put a 6 gram in there and add 6 grams tape to the bottom front will this achieve my goal? Or a variation of that.

@@cryptoking8060 Yes, more forward weight will drop some spin assuming you still make contact on the same spot on face.

[@dtlocke]

It’s not going to make a huge difference, but adding weight to the CENTER of the back of an iron head is going to make it less forgiving. Think of it this way: the more weight you add to the center of a cavity back, the more you are turning your cavity back into a blade). For this reason, I add my lead tape around the perimeter of my iron heads (and try to keep it as evenly distributed as possible). This can be a little tricky, but it’s worth it to preserve forgiveness I think.

[@EFGMC]

You would need a lot of weight to change the playing characteristics of an iron head.

[@dtlocke]

@@EFGMC sure. But I add enough that it makes a difference. I play with “single length” irons, but I have the 9 through lob wedge all cut down 3 inches. (So im actually playing two length irons: one length for 4 - 8 and another for 9 - L.) When you cut off 3 inches from the shaft, you have to add so much lead tape that I think it does make a difference where you put it.

[@EFGMC]

@@dtlocke True, you are working with a much more extreme example.

[@alanduncan9204]

Great info. Where would I put lead tape on the Driver sole to reduce the height I get with my Drives? I am hitting 260 yds but the flight looks like it is a high Loop and the ball falls out of the sky around 250 and just bounces on a few yds. Sometimes it plugs and does not roll at all so obviously has a steep descent angle. I would prefer a lower flight parabola that give me a lot more roll out. Thanks.

[@EFGMC]

For that I would locate the tape right up near the face on the sole. Can be a little tricky with some head designs and swings so it doesn't get peeled off. I would also make sure you know where you are making contact on the face. Anything lower on the face is going to ramp up the spin, which it sounds like might be your issue. However it could also be too little spin if it starts out high and then just falls out of the sky. Really would recommend getting on a LM to see what the spin is doing. Otherwise you might make the problem worse instead of better.

I recently tried out an Evnroll putter with a gravity grip and though the grip was a potential game changer for me. However, I’m pretty nervous about going from a 50-60gram grip to a 105gram grip and the head feeling like it’s too light. Based on your video, it seems like a little bit of lead tape might not make up the difference. Any thoughts or direction on this?

[@EFGMC]

I would get some sort of 50g weight, maybe a bunch of washers stacked together, and just duct tape it onto the butt end of your current putter. Try it out and see how it feels.

[@teamsubstancemmt]

I have wrongly had 105g shafts put in my p770’s. They are far to light and I’m hoping to improve them whilst I wait for my new irons. I’m going to be adding tape to the heads temporarily but can’t get my head round the difference in effect on swing weight from shaft weight to head weight. Am I correct in thinking that 9g of shaft weight is equivalent to 2g of head weight as far as swing point goes? I’m hoping to get this set to feel something like it would with s300’s but that’s 25g. I’m so confused 🤣

9g of shaft weight increase will add 1 swp. 2g added to head will = 1 swp as well.

The one thing i've noticed over the years is that on the wedges I've played the COG has been closer to the heel than the center of the face. Not sure why it's been that way. Or maybe it's just me..

[@EFGMC]

Yes, most irons, especially blade styles seem to lean towards the heel side with the CG. With the higher lofted wedges (58, 60) over the last few years you see more brands build up that toe section to move the CG out and up that direction.

I put it on the sole of my hybrids and woods

non lead tape question: What brand shirt is that?

[@EFGMC]

Banana Republic I believe.

Grip question if i may - i brought some 2nd hand Katana irons from Japan and the grips were knackered, so i went to change them, butt end of the graphite shafts are too big/wide to get any grips on, i did try to stretch the opening of the grip to slide it on but it ended in swearing! Any clues/tips/tricks to get the grips on? Sorry i didn't measure the end of the shaft (doh)

[@EFGMC]

Look for grips with the largest inside diameter. Not sure how thick these shafts are but you might try and look for the old Taylormade Bubble shaft grips. They are 30 years old now, but they were designed for extremely wide shaft butts.

@@EFGMC lol. I ended up just wrapping it low around the hosel works fine. I don’t care about the look so it’s ok

[@rejeancanacmarquis5561]

The issue in your review is that it doesn't take into account the dynamic effect of adding weight, how it affects the club head angle at impact of an actual swing: does it de loft, change the side angle at impact, gives more distance, etc.

[@EFGMC]

Lead tape is primarily for feel and improving contact consistency. That's what I focus on. Keep it simple.

[@bigpardner]

Has anyone tried using lead tape on various places on the shaft?

I feel like people who think lead tape makes a difference are weirdos

[@pictureperf]

well, i think the pros wouldn't do it if it had no affect. they would surely feel and know better than amateurs like you... and me😂

[@TheBooze13]

@@pictureperf yea bud thanks proving my point. Also not many pros with lead tape on their clubs
