    SkyTrak Protective Case - Screws Move Easily

    I have a set up in my garage and my SkyTrak needs to move close to my net for wedges and back for my driver so I miss permanent over hanging storage. As I move the SkyTrak back and forth, I lose my level because the screws move ever so slightly and it is annoying. Does any one know a way I can make the screws now spin so much? Some type of glue I can add to the screws? thanks!

    You're not going to want to glue the case screws to your SkyTrak. They make threadlocker glue, but in this case I don't like it. That case will be on and off for resets/etc.

    If they're a little stripped and you have no choice I would just use teflon thread tape. It's blue and commonly used to seal pipe threads. Something like this: https://www.amazon.com/Mill-Rose-708.../dp/B009YA09D0

      So that will just give it a bit more grip? That is what I am looking for! Thanks!

        Not sure how far you have to move your skytrak or if this would work for you. I use one of these and it works great. They come in different lengths up to at least 4 feet.This makes it easy for me to slide it forward for my driver and farther back for my irons and not have to hit in the same spot on my mat all the time

          Joegolfguy - very cool idea. How do you ensure that the base of you SkyTrak is level with you hitting mat? I looked at a Neewer on Amazon and the minimum leg height is 3.3".

        Can I get replacement screws for the protective case? What size/type are they?

          Joey the golf guy - that is a great idea! Thanks for sharing.

          I went and got the teflon tape aka plumbers tape and that did the trick!

              Are you talking about missing the overhanging storage with the club head or with the ball spinning up the screen on a wedge?
