Thank You for all the replies. I the warning bell was saying something about the glue needing elasticity and that the epoxy would not have this.
As for my memory, I too, did wood head and wooden shaft work in the past. I replaced a few hickory shafts and assembled quite a few wooden headed clubs which I finished myself. I also had a little specialty, I took raw wooden putter heads, drilled out a round divot into the top of the head and glued a miniature shield into it. Then I would put a clear epoxy fill on top of the shield. Then I would stain and finish the head. A hickory shaft and a leather wrap grip would finish the job. I made over one hundred of them before I became hard to get unfinished heads and hickory shafts. It made for nice retirement gifts.
Thanks again for the replies. Now to the work.
