Brian, Here's a fix I tried recently (two months ago) and it worked like a charm. The post below is from Dan Neubecker in 2000:
"I've tested a rattle fix method this spring that seems to have held up. I have some old 24hr epoxy in those small tapered tip bottles. The epoxy is old enough that I'm afraid to use it on a club. I put the bottles in the microwave and heated them until they were almost hot to the touch. This made the epoxy very thin and runny. I then took the white one (base?) and squirted/dribbled a bit down through the hosel into the head cavity. A little bit of shaking and the offending rattle stopped. I then squirted/dribbled a small amount of the other bottle (hardener?) and shook it around. There was no measurable change in weight as a result of the epoxy. I figured the two might mix just enough to keep the epoxy in place over time. So far on two heads the rattles have stayed away and the heads play and sound the same (after about 2 weeks). If you've ever gotten just on part of the epoxy on your fingers you know just how sticky it can be. I did get a bit inside the hosel and had to use up a couple of q-tips with acetone to clean it up before re-shafting. I hope it holds up over time and when we get to that hot trunk weather :-)" Bernie Writeto: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ----- Original Message ----- From: "Brian Parkinson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, September 29, 2003 4:17 PM Subject: RE: ShopTalk:Rattle > Sorry to ask a simple question, but what causes a rattle in a head.
