Wanted : Ping Putter Weights

[Region3]

As per the title really.

I'd like to try heavier weights in my Ping iWi putter. Has anyone got either a weight kit, or maybe even just one set of weights from a kit that they'd like to sell on?

Thanks.

Have you finished thosen grips already?

Have you considered trying lead tape?

Not done the grips yet. Hopefully tonight. Ordered them from Gamola yesterday so fingers crossed it'll be delivered today.

I thought about lead tape but I'd like to avoid changing how it looks if I can, that's just me.
I was also thinking about dropping something inside the shaft before I put the new grip on as another alternative. Good or bad idea?

Thanks for the link.

I don't normally consider buying anything from the US because of the possibility of getting hit with a tax bill when they turn up.
Is there a threshold for size/weight/value where I can guarantee I won't get charged import tax?

 

[bobmac]

wouldn't advise it

tax on it would be peanuts anyway if you got hit with it at all

In all instances Customs Duty is waived if the amount of the duty payable is less than £9.


unless im reading it wrong

you pay VAT on goods valued at over £18, but beware if the goods are shipped EMS then you also pay VAT on the postage.


duty can be any amount, i should know i see it every night at work, have seen duty as low s 58p levied against goods.

we used to import on a large scale from the states, to be safe general rule of thumb was:

Under $100 ould normally be free, although we sometimes picked up a £13.00 clearence charge

Over $100
+6% duty
+£13 clearence
+£17.5% on total amount

this worked out pretty consistent through parcel force when having stuff shipped by US Mail.
