How to find the right Golf Club Heads AI guide

Written by an AI model from its trained knowledge.

What the AI looks for in Golf Club Heads

Hosel bore: Driver and wood heads usually take .335 in. Irons take .355 in taper or .370 in parallel. Confirm the bore before buying a shaft. The head and shaft must match exactly for a secure epoxy bond.
Adapter compatibility: Adjustable OEM driver and wood heads need that brand's sleeve. Some generations also differ within a brand. A head bought alone will not accept a shaft fitted with another brand's sleeve.
Conformance: Driver heads should appear on the USGA/R&A conforming list, which checks spring-like effect and size limits. Hot-face "non-conforming" heads are illegal in competition.
Loft, lie and bendability: Forged irons bend for loft and lie adjustment more easily than many cast heads. Cast heads may allow only limited bending. This decides whether the head can be fitted to you after purchase.
Head weight: Check the head weight against the target club length and swingweight. Longer builds need lighter heads. Without the right head weight you cannot reach a normal swingweight at your length.

Wishon Golf: Component heads designed for clubmakers.
GolfWorks (Maltby): Long-running component head and clubmaking supply source.
Ping: Common used OEM heads. Uses its own color-code lie system on irons.
Titleist: Widely available used OEM heads with brand-specific adjustable sleeves.

Counterfeit OEM driver heads, which have off-looking graphics, missing serials or wrong weights
Heads sold without the matching screw or weight when the design is adjustable
Heads not on the conforming list if you play in competitions

No. Adjustable heads need the brand's adapter sleeve epoxied to the shaft tip, and the sleeve then screws into the head.
