If I use your assumption that the potential head weight swing is only 2 grams, then the head from Wishon would weight 200 grams even. I would be able to add about 9 grams to the rear of the club. I think that amount of weight, if positioned carefully, might add an extra 3/8ths of a degree of loft to the club plus a little more forgiveness as well. That would allow me to buy a 10.5 lofted driver instead of the 11 degree driver I am contemplating presently.
While I respect your opinion, and my clubmaker feels exactly the way you do, I still might do it. It is just about trying to maximize ones golf equipment, and I like the idea of gaining a bit more MOI in my new driver which has a relatively classic shape. I agree the stakes are by no means huge, but success is often in the small details.

Fair enough. There is absolutely nothing wrong with how you want to do it and lead tape makes it easier to change the weight in the future. Good luck with the new stick.
