Are you permitted under the rules of golf to put tape on your club when actually playing a round?
You bet! As long as you do not modify during the round! All approved by the USGA!
Per USGA Interpretation 4.a(6) – Features above the top line of the head:
. For woods and irons, features which otherwise meet the requirements for “plain in shape” must not extend above the top line of the head by more than 0.1 inch (2.54 mm).
• Permanent or semi-permanent lines or other markings which have been painted, inscribed or otherwise incorporated (see Section 1a) for alignment purposes are permitted.
Pinstriping is allowed per below.
Thanks for all you and your team do for this game!

Using pinstriping tape to put alignment lines on your driver would not be an issue. We have deemed the pinstriping tape to be semi-permanent and can be used for the purpose. Let me know if you have any other questions.

Shawn excellent video. I just wanted know something. Where do you position the tape on the top of the driver. It appears to form a “V”. Is there any significance to where the point is positioned and can you do this with your fairway woods and hybrids
A perpendicular line to the face of the club about an inch to each side of the top logo which represents the centre of the face.
What am I missing? Would not one piece of tap at center of clubface give you blur and point to center face contact? I ask since I am going to use paint.
Awesome! I keep telling the guys at Callaway to use the 2 ball on top of the club head to see a blur the width of a ball! Go for it!!
Hi Shawn, feeling a bit overwhelmed by how many great videos you have here. My problem is that I rarely take out my driver mainly due to the fact that I either duck hook or push right. At the moment I’m using irons of the tees which I hit fairly well.
please could you advise me which videos on here would be good for me to practice with so I can gain some confidence with a driver
thanks

Hey Brett! Just answered your youtube post with this: Hey Brett! “Arc-Blur Unstoppable momentum” combined with the last 2 videos (5 and 6) of the “2020 Off season Training series”-Keep your STRAIN LEVEL in check by delivering with no more than 3/10 for effort and 7/10 on velocity; like a solid attacking second serve. The 2 swing drill that you will see in the last 2 videos is key for strong and balanced posture through the shot which will prevent the club and arms from dropping behind you on the downswing causing the pushed drives and hooked drives (same family of issue)
