Hmm ... guess the club was pretty old and I used a bit of strength while trying to replace the weight on the head.
(yeah, itchy hand. Wondering why I want to change the weights around after using it for so long???)
Now, one of the weights has its head rounded, such that I cannot screw it out anymore.
Well, I can still use the driver, no problem, but this just does not feel perfect.
Anyone know of a relatively easy way to remove the weight?
Thanks.

stick a blue tack onto the broken part and slowly unscrew the port using a small screw driver stuck to the other end of the blue tack.

last resort break the screw with a fine drill but that is dicey.

Spray a bit of WD40 on the edges and let it settle in before trying to unsrew again.

You sure the screw thread still movable? If you get it from authorized retailer. You can always bring back to TaylorMade shop.

Yeah, the screw was removable ...
I played with it when I first got the club (I am not the first owner)
this is the 1st edition all black superquad.
Dont think it is from authorised retailer.
Don't think the first edition came to singapore officially? (any bro can verify?)

Cheers.
