Lead Tape

I want to but some lead tape on my R580xd driver to eliminate a slight left-to-right fade. Where should I put the tape and approximately how much for a moderately fast swinger with a fade of about 10-15 yards. Are there any household substitutes for using lead tape?
Thanks,
JP

you would want to place it on the back side of the driver, near to where the hosel is. i don't know of any household items. i never really had much sucess with lead tape, but it my work for you.

Lead tape is cheap and you can get it at a golf store. (I get mine at the 2nd Swing) Depending on the severity of the fade (I mean, are we talking fade or slice here?) the tape can go on the heal of the driver instead of the back, but be careful how much you use.

A slight 10-15 yard fade is nice. If it bothers you , try a stronger grip. For right handers, that would be left hand slightly nore right around the grip and right hand over thumb and shove them together. Works for me quite well.
