https://www.titleist.com/teamtitleist/team-titleist/f/club-fitting/20268/lead-weights-tape I noticed multiple tour players have affixed tungsten/lead weights to some of their clubs. I was just curious as to why this is? Obviously for additional weight but why the specific placements of certain weights on certain clubs?
