Abstract
A golf club stabilizing device includes a flexible rod (e.g., a fiberglass rod) encircled by one or more compressible spacers (e.g., polyurethane foam spacers) secured thereto by adhesive and/or heat shrink. When inserted into the hollow shaft of a golf club, the spacers are at least somewhat compressed, thereby exerting a force on the inside wall of the shaft that inhibits motion of the flexible rod relative to the shaft.
