Pack them real tight and you don't even hear a BB moving around in there.

Interesting - I went to a sports store today, to purchaed some bbs - it looked like a bottle for $14.95 - wouldn't be nearly sufficent - how many bbs - in terms of $ did it cost you....have you had any problems arise with the bbs...

Any other ideas would be much appreciated! I am thinking of weighting my 5 iron down and then having the club -regripped.
