I'm sorry Tom but i thought at the customer and the clubmaker was looking for a flat faced drver.  I do not remember reading that "HE" the customer wanted an OEM driver, I thought that he wanted a driver head, "ANY DRIVER HEAD" OEM NON OEM, as long as it had a flat face.   Sorry I misunderst

RK:   I can’t possibly measure all of the heads that are out there so I am sure that there are some more like you say with the 14” x 14” – my comments were in regard to the major OEM’s drivers from what I have been able to measure over the years of looking at them.     TOM

Tom, I thought that most drivers had a 14 X 14 B&R not the 10 X 12 that you are saying.   I think that if you check out Herico's Cat you will find that most of the driver's offere there have the 14 X 14 inch B*R.   RK - Original Message - From: Tom Wishon To: [EMAIL PRO

David: About 6-7 yrs back when I started to move the roll radius to be a 4" difference from the bulge instead of the normal 2" difference that everyone else uses, I remember having this twinge and wondering if clubmakers/golfers would reject that because it was "out of the norm". This subtle chang

Gang - Everybody gets putter fitting mirrors all the time in the mail. Take an old AOL (or other) CD and turn it upside down. Perfect mirror for practicing. When the ball is placed in the CD hole, you can look down and see your eyes if it is lined up. I also marl parallel lines on the CD us

Tom   Thanks for the response. I forwarded your message onto my friend with a footnote that you were the world’s best club designer and that he should listen to you!!   Actually this discussion has made me think about bugle and roll a lot more than I have and for that I’m grateful.
