TM M2 Faulty Iron Heads

[Adler]

You make a fair point, l just think large companies will always opt to do the bear minimum that suits them first. The mark up on golf clubs is huge so my sympathy for AG/TM is limited.. club heads very rarely come off, for 2 out of 6 to come off of a £500 set of clubs within 6 months of buying them is not acceptable in my opinion

Most are working on margins of around 20% ( on clubs )
Not what I'd consider a "huge mark up" as was suggested by Adler

I've a couple of mates in the trade, so also have access to trade price lists, the buy in prices of some companies hardware, makes it pretty pointless to stock when you're a 1 man shop up against the buying power of the big guns.

Some people ( punters ) think they're doubling their money.....as if.......maybe on some items of clothing, but definitely not on clubs.

I accept my “huge mark up” comment was without foundation. You’re right on the clothing mark up as I’ve gone into to AG before and they’ve pointed out clothes that they can offer me discounts on as the mark ups were higher than on other brands.

Its obvious that someone has got the glue mix wrong when they were put together. If they redo them I dont see what the problem is.

I have just noticed that my 5 & 7 iron heads are loose, my 7 has a 10mm gap between head and shaft. I'm going to the shop in the morning to get them looked a.

Are you sure a ferrule just hasnt come loose and slipped up the shaft?

 

[Longstride83]

No, the glue is visible on the 7 iron and both will twist round

I noticed as the markings on the grips were off centre

 

[Longstride83]

Nice and easy, they are going to get re glued and I can collect tomorrow
