Black clubs use black electrical tape. I put one on my R15 just incase and people don't even notice it til I say!

I played with a guy a while ago who did something similar. And wondered if it was legal in comps. Asked on here and the general consensus was that it wasn't. So be careful

you'll probably find you'll repair it then in your very next round put another massive sky mark on the crown so it's probably best to just leave it As that's what happened to me.

It's only on there til I know I am happy with the driver as selling with a sky mark would not be ideal :).
I did also cut and shape it so it is very very discreet.

I think it is legal provided it is not on the face (i.e. does not interact with the ball spin etc) and also the driver remains unaltered for the round.

My comment on Faldo (rather unfairly) was for when he reported a FC who had some lead tape on their club (putter iirc) and decided to take it off mid round as it was fraying / bit loose. Altered club therefore broke rule.
