Abstract
An electrically heated convertible tool for removing a golf club head from a shaft inserted in the hosel of both metal and wooden golf club heads includes a pair of plier-like pivotally connected opposed jaws each carrying an electric heating block. The heating blocks are disposed in opposed clamping relationship and are each provided with an arcuate recess sized to closely engage and heat the tapered hosel surface of a metal golf club head. The blocks are adjustable relative to each other to accomodate for size variations in hosels. An elongated heat exchange member having a head sized to be clamped in the arcuate recesses of the blocks and an elongated linear portion sized to be insertable into the interior of a hollow metal golf club shaft is provided to permit use of the tool to heat the hosel of a wooden club head. The tool permits heat to be applied to the hosel of the club heat to soften the cement holding the hosel to the shaft of the golf club.
