I'm reshafting a set of Ping G2s and I can't for the life of me get the heads off. I usually use a heat gun but it wasnt budging it, so I got a torch and tried and still couldn't move it. Any help would be appreciated.

Gonna give this a try, but I don't have an extractor, so heat and rubber mallet might be my best optionShaft extractor plus heat, patience, heat, patience, and more heat. They are .355 tapers that are hammered in that could hold without epoxy but they added epoxy to created almost a permanent bond. FYI stand away from the head when it flies off lay down something to catch the head softly and avoid a brand oddly resembling a Ping iron head.
Be wary of manipulating the lie angle with a mallet and heat. Another option is cut it off near flush then heat but use a extractor like for damaged screws to remove the shaft. Attached a link but any hardware store should have similar.Gonna give this a try, but I don't have an extractor, so heat and rubber mallet might be my best option
