Thanks RK Jeff Rchard w kennedy wrote: Jeff Dan All, I get those type style of ferrule(s) from Pro Swing Golf in Ohio, somewheres. I use a 7/16 reamer to bore out the hosel for irons, remember you can ream out a hole (hosel) to another 1/32 or .03125. But to be able to erform this task you're going to need a real heavy duty reaming fixture. But your hosel should already be ready o receive the ferrule. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dan Neubecker" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, July 02, 2004 12:59 PM Subject: RE: ShopTalk: Butler SSti driver Jeff, Yes, it has a very unique ferrule system. I doubt you can find anything like it. It sets recessed into the head a bit. The shaft does not come into contact with the top shell of the driver at all. The hosel essentially extrudes up from the bottom of the head, but there is a space between it an the top shell. The best thing to try and do is heat the club from the bottom only and after you get the head off, try and re-use the existing ferrule. BTW, you will need a jig similar to the one used for Pings or Callaway's to get the head off, because you have no hosel to push against and the puller must push against the top shell of the head. You might want to think about cutting the shaft off just above the ferrule and then drilling/reaming out the shaft, therefore preserving the clubheads topshell and the ferrule.

He told me that there is something unique about the ferrule and the shaft insertion but wasn't sure exactly what it was. Before I start trying to remove the shaft I though I'd inquire of the collective knowedge of the group. Jeff wholeinone
