I detest lateral clamps!!! There,ive said it.  Cannot see the advantage of these clamps that spin and constantly loosen themselves all day bloody long.And yes i do include all pole manufacturers!! Does anyone out there make a pole with the old style clamps?
Or can i get some from somewhere to revert my poles?

Stevieg if your referring to the Gardiner mark 1 smart clamp I couldn't agree more, but he has replaced them with
a newer version that has solved this problem, I haven't tried them yet just going by what Iv heard.
Might be worth fitting a few of these new types just to see if it solves your problem, I actually like the old Gardiner clamps
which I still have on my everyday pole I'm dreading the day when I have to change it so it must be the best looked after pole
on the planet.
My longer poles have the mark 1 smart clamps which I will let stay as they are as I don't use them that much but they are a terrible
clamp.

A mate of mine has the Phoenix  pole and he's tried laquer and adjusting  clamps but doesn't want to know poles only about 8 months old clamps are garbage

That's good to know Dave, like I have said my everyday pole is overdue a change and if the smart clamp hadn't changed
I would have been looking elsewhere.

Steve  what you need to do is get your thumb moving sideways, if you can achieve this the clamps really easy,  also you won't slice as many golf ball's.

Hi Stevieg

Clamps correctly set-up and working properly should not spin and loosen themselves off. You do not mention which brand of lateral clamps you have - although there are many types available they are not all equal in ability.

If you have some of our older clamps that are now not working correctly, then please drop me an email with exactly what is the problem as there will usually be a solution to get them working properly again. If it is another brand of pole that you are having issues with then it may be worth contacting the manufacturer and asking their advice.

Hi Ray

How old is the SLX35 that you are having issues with? Depending on its age there are perhaps things that can be done to improve the usability of the clamps. Which part is spinning on the clamps?

Would like to know what pole your mate is using jk and could pretty sure it would be older than 8 months on inspection. Phoenix clamps are highly regarded for ease of use, speed, etc over lateral

Why were you gonna use lateral clamps on the Neon pole then?

[steven jones]

Ive joined up with stephen fox has co-designer,  and  will be bringing some serious wfp equipment out in the near future.
And i must say the clamps have improved,  which i truly believe are the easiest clamps to use.
