JOHN, I have always assumed ( and I don't like to assume anything ) that the reading I get with or without the head was a true reading.Yes or no? Should I do all my measuring before I A: install the head and B: before I install the grip? IMO I would like to know what the finished club would be since that is what your trying to accomplish.Yeah? What is the preferred method of using this device? Pat McGoldrick--On Target Golf [EMAIL PROTECTED]
