Did you hit with it before you bought it? If not, that might be your problem. If you don't want to make it heavier and still want to add tape, you might just be SOL my friend...sorry.

- What is the balance without the lead tape?
- How many inches of lead tape did you add?
- What position on the head did you apply it?

Use the lead tape customization tool...

Okay. Adding lead tape anywhere above the 7 and 9 o'clock position changes the swing quite a bit. I would recommend you start by adding 1 inch of lead tape at the 3 and 9 o'clock position. (two pieces each side.. I guess that's obvious)

Sounds like a little.. but it will make a difference. See if that gives you enough stability, then if it works, you haven't changed the balance so dramatically.
