I was cleaning my driver tonite and noticed a little dimple on the underside of the head. It's not a dent just a dimple about the size of an eraser head. It's not real deep.
I have know idea how it happened.

Will this make the club perform differently and is it illegal? Any input would be greatly appreciated.

You meant on the sold of the driver ?
Could you post a photo ?
Which brand is the driver ?

It's a Killer Bee Yellow Jacket driver.
Sold, thats the word. It would be on the sold
about and inch from the hosle. I'm not sure how it
happened. I'm thinking I may have bumped it while putting
an iron back in the bag. I don't know when I did it.
It's not severe and I'm planning on upgrading soon.
I just wanted to make sure it was ok to use. It seems fine
otherwise. Now I know why my brother is always screaming to put the cover back on the driver.LOL

The sole plate of Killer Bee Yellow Hornet driver seemed to be metal. And it's not a bore through hosel.
You could have put a small dent on it by thumping the driver on the ground after a not so perfect tee shot ? A small piece of rock or even a piece of broken tee buried in the ground might be the cause of it.
I don't believe the dent would make the driver non-conforming.
I thought it might also be the port to put additional weight in the head ( an after market modification ). but if you only see a small dent without sign of puncture, then it's not the case.

Thanks guys. I appreciate the feedback.
I need to get about a month out of it.
I'm thinking TaylorMade Burner Driver.
My brother has a friend that owns a golf
shop in Florida so while I'm down I'm gonna test drive
a few sticks in the swing machine thingy.
Good time's.
