NBP-COG alignment..... I posted this the other day and received no response so I'll do it again. I agree with you on the difficulty of aligning the NBP and COG to the degree. My method is to prepare the shaft, install the ferrule, find the NBP with the NF. Take the DI off, turn the NF up-side down on the bench and install the head and let it seek it own COG, let the epoxy set up with the club in the NF. In my small mind I don't see how you could get any closer....df
Don,
That will indeed get as close as you can measure it. (It's a variant of an approach I originally suggested.) Two flies in the ointment, however:
(1) The NF2 only finds the true NBP if the shaft is straight and round. Otherwise, there is an error (frequently a significant error) in the position you find.
(2) This approach only works for NBP-COG alignment. That's a new theory, and most of the anecdotal data (and all of the organized published data) use either NBP-target or spine-target alignment.
