Don't knock this type of behavior! Broken, bent
clubs generate lots of repair work. I love to see a customer arrive with a
head in one hand and shaft in the other, sheepish look, and a meek tone asking
"can you fix this?" I carefully look at the parts and reply, "this appears to
be a temper break in the shaft" adding that or course I can fix it, quote the
price and explain that on my work the customer must sign "adoption" papers
that forbid abuse! Sometimes show a picture from a golf magazine of an
X-ray of a putter head and shaft through a playing partner's neck. Throwing
and bashing clubs is a dangerous game, even for a Kennedy relative who killed
a neighbor with a 9 iron! Gentlemen, choose your weapons. But don't give
this game a bad name.
