Question for those that know more than me about doing work with shafts and adapters: should a reputable club builder be able to take a Titleist tip off of a driver shaft so that I can use the shaft in a different clubhead?

I have had it done. So yes.

Yup. I have had it done on a few occasions with no issues

It's really not that hard. Low heat (heat gun) with a puller gets the job done and keeps the integrity of the shaft in check.

Shouldn't be an issue for you at all having it done professionally.

Appreciate the input. I'm going to the same guy at Golfsmith that changed out the Cobra adapter on my Grandura shaft when I had an issue with it, I was more wondering if the Titleist adapter was any harder to deal with. I got a really good deal on a shaft that a guy was using in a Titleist driver, and I want to take that shaft and play it in a Callaway 3 wood. So the adapter needs to come off, tip gets trimmed 1/2 inch per recommendations by Mitsubishi Rayon, then butt trimmed to playing length.

Pondering whether to switch out my current Chev Org 14 stand bag:

For a new Staff Bag (Nike Vapor, blue)

Love the look of it, but I can't decide :banghead:

I think Titleist is one of the many adapters that can be reused, unlike TaylorMade where the plastic just melts off and makes a mess.

Only issue might be the black turning to burgundy.

It sure is! I'm heading to the store tomorrow to give it a "test run" and see how it feels in the flesh :blob:

Looking at replacing my wedges.

GregDan · Mar 24, 2016

I think I need some longer more heavy duty headcovers for my woods. I love the look of the Seamus but my bag fell over in the wind the other day and scratched up my 3w through the cover.

Any ideas that are good? Was thinking Rose and fire but not sure how well they fit and how easy to get on and off.

sudseh · Mar 24, 2016

Done.

Was cruising the Callaway website last night and have become very intrigued by the Apex hybrid. Came really close to pulling the trigger last night but backed off to do more research. Still an extremely strong ponder atthis point.

This was the thought that made me damn near pull the trigger last night.

I cant remember the last Cally club that I didnt like and this club seems like its right in my wheelhouse.

Only question is how the shaft plays. Any insights on the shaft?

For me it launches a little lower than the fuji pro 80 and a lot lower than the tour red. This are the main hybrid shafts I have played
