6- Installing Golf Club Ferrules

Installing ferrules is not that difficult, but it can be the distinguishing evidence that a club has been made by a professional. 

Let me mention here, that a ferrule has absolutely nothing to do with a golf clubs performance.  You don't even have to put one on your club, but you would end up with a very odd looking club.  Ferrules are purely cosmetic.golf club ferrule

A professionally installed ferrule will blend seamlessly with the hosel of the golf clubhead.  We will cover how to blend the ferrule properly in step 8.

Ok, now that you have your epoxy mixed thoroughly, apply some to the tip of your shaft.  Now, place the ferrule on the end of the shaft, small end first.  This may be quite a tight fit, and if so, use a small piece of pipe to push it on.

Once you have it on about half an inch or so, use the golf clubhead itself to push it on the rest of the way.  Using the head will precisely place the ferrule where it needs to be.
