You just made the job so much more work than it needed to be. You measured the distance from the bottom of the adapter to the sole of the club, and then did a bunch of math to figure out what length the shaft should be to get the desired club length. What I would have done would be to install the adapter into the head, then slip the shaft into the adapter, and then just measure the club length. If the length was 1/2" more than desired, I'd just cut 1/2" off the shaft and be done with it. Same results, just a whole lot less work. It's. simple and easy and far less chance of making an error doing any math, that we all know could go wrong. Your way works, My way works, but is a lot easier and faster to do the same thing.
Crazy! Install adapter, insert shaft into head, measure club and butt trim to length. WTF is he doing??
Thank you for the mention! Unfortunately, I didn't realize that I had sent you Titleist driver tip shafts and not fairway wood shafts. I just sent you the correct adapter (fairway wood) tips and shafts again. Totally my fault. Looks like delicate and exacting work. Thank you again for providing this service. I hope I am not being a pain by resending them.
Thanks for sharing that.
Glad your voice is back. Nice video. That’s an awesome shaftpuller.
Thanks much for the video: it’s nice to finally get an idea for how to do this DIY
It's actually Quaranta. Which is the number 40 in Italian. Which they used because the shafts are Raw weigh in the Sub 50 grams range. Love the videos! I built a shaft puller based on the one I've seen in your videos with the Bottle Jack.
Very nice explanatory video. Thanks for a great job.
I have an inexpenxive MD Golf Superfit Driver Head on a JavlnFX Mitsubishi Rayon shaft which I REALLY like. This driver has adjustable loft but it is the type that you have to turn the shaft to go up or down any degrees. This of course makes my grip alignment off from where I like to place my hands over the marking to make srue I have the correct angle of my driver.
My quesiton is can I put on a Callaway or Titleist adjustable adapter on this set up? Can you use those on ANY head of shaft? Or do you know of one I could use that is the cog type I could put on so I don't have to turn my shaft when I want to chenge loft angles? Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you very much for your time and keep up the good work on the videos.

Thanks for the video. Very informative
Wish I had found this channel before I tried to rig up my favorite driver to play the past weekend... Nike Vapor Fly Pro shaft adapter had its threads stripped and couldn't be tightened enough to prevent rattle after just addressing the ball. I stopped playing with it that day out of fear of the head flying off luckily. However, out of grief and poor judgement decided to fill the threads with lock-tight Red and tighten it as much as I could before it slipped. Well I haven't touched it yet and am fearing it won't last and will make replacing the shaft adapter even harder. It is set to the spec's I play at so if it doesn't come apart good, but I should have just did it the correct way from the beginning!
You can loosen up locktite with heat
Hi mate what you do is art keep the good tricks of the trade going love to learn
Hey I just recently broke my 913F fairway wood and need a shaft adapter. I saw your link for the Titleist ones. Will that adapter fit all titleist clubs ?
On the taylormade R1 adapter, are the .335 and .350 adapters the same, the only difference being a very thin sleeve within the adapter than can be removed to turn the .335 into a .350? Thank you.
My clubfitter and team mate was at the show. Came back to the Netherlands and now has double pneumonia!!
I hit the like button but I feel his pain. The new connection from CAPTo is from the Netherlands
Would it work if you left a ping head on the adaptor so you could pull on the head with ur hands to get the adaptor off similar to how you can pull an iron head off with ur hands?
Do you recommend using an OEM adapter for a Titleist 917 F2 or an aftermarket?
There is the screw that secured the head to the shaft. There is one rubber washer included. Does the rubber washer go inside the head on the adapter side or does it go on the screw head side?
love my va slay shaft in my 2i will likely be adding them to my fw an hybrids soon very comparable to the oban devotion imo
Excellent Video! FR
True craftsman. Very unique content. My Questions: Is the 11 degrees too much for a driver loft? Also can you change the lie angle on hybrid clubs are not designed like the Wishon's to bend? Have a great day.
Matt Revilock 11 deg is just about perfect for most golfers. There are other hybrids that can be bent that have long hostels. But be careful you still need the proper bend machine
Thanks for the video. I recently obtained a Callaway Alpha 815 3 and 5 wood at a garage sale. They have Callaway Optifit adapters on the shafts. On the ends of these adapters is a small sleeve/bushing that appears to snap onto the end of the Optifit adapter. This part is the first part that goes into the clubhead when attaching the adapter to the clubhead. I noticed that on the 3 wood that this part is broken into two pieces, and I have to hold the pieces together on the adapter end while reinserting the adapter into the clubhead, or else the pieces just fall off. Can I buy this adapter/bushing as a single part? If so, where would I get it, and what is that part really called?
sorry for the delay but no its not
I have been watching your video's for quite some time and somewhat built my own little shop in my basement and thank you for that. I have a question for you have you heard of a shaft called GD Pershing?? I was wondering if this is a quality shaft or low grade. Any opinions would be appreciated....thank you
GD is graphite Design, Pershing is a model of their line. Most GD stuff well made
If I have a ping g410 fairway wood with an Accra shaft can I put said shaft into a callaway epic max fairway wood? Callaway being bonded but I think they are both .335 so you see any issues there? I can save this for what’s in my drawers if you think I need to on Monday.
I have a shaft that currently has a Callaway adapter and plays 45.25" with an Epic head...I want to remove it and install a Titleist adapter, will my playing length become shorter now with the Titleist head? just comparing adapters the Callaway looks a slight bit longer but I guess it all depends how deep into the head it goes compared to Titleist right??
Do you put any powder in the epoxy mix or only epoxy?
Do you still have to Tip a new shaft? I'm installing a new Callaway adapter on a new Project X HZRDUS shaft to be installed in my Epic GBB Driver head. I want stock length and the shaft to perform at 5.5. Can I just install the adapter on the shaft and when dry and assembled cut the final length from the butt end then install a new grip?
Dose using a golf club adapter make the shaft spine orientation obsolete?
Do all shafts come the same length and it’s cut or added to, to make all clubs
Could you do a video on regluing a mallet style ping vault putter?
Hi there, thanks for the video. May I just ask, how much epoxy do you put on the shaft when setting the adaptor? How much is too much? Cheers.
Oh, also do you use shafting beads?
There is certainly a too much limit you typically find that out when putting it on the shaft and there is tons of clean up. Start with covering the shaft with a thin layer and add as needed
Do you have a link to the cheaper adapter pulling tool
On any adapter other than Callaway, you have to spin the shaft with the grip and lose your decal down orientation when you make changes to loft, lie, etc. Will this adapter remedy this problem or not?
Hoping this is a the appropriate place to ask for advice. New to golf so trying to save some pennies I am trying to put together a driver, I had the head and adapter and recently found a shaft cheap online. When I got it home I noticed that when they sanded the tip it was not done evenly. When I slide the adapter on it is obviously crooked. Is there a way to build up the tip then re-sand it? Perhaps epoxy putty?
Thanks
Well, he's not answering you, but I can: you errored in purchasing a shaft on the cheap. My approach: I only want to buy things once. Better to spend more for a quality product, than buying a cheap product 10 times.
My grandson had a jr ping hybrid. Can I fit it with a adult shaft even if I use an aluminum/steel shaft
3 Hybrid length.
As you know I love your reviews, so when are you going to do the full mavrik line of irons and Hybrid reviews?
I have video done now just trying to put it in an interesting format
A lot of adapters may have a small or big ferrule to it. When you remove the adapter the way you do it, does that ferrule follow or stay behind because it is clued to the shaft. I have found to get replacements you have to buy the adapter to get it. To get the exact ferrule is almost impossible, oem won’t sell it, what do you do.
the ferrule is replaced when I do the removals. Titleist is easy to find at golf works so is Taylor made. The hardest IMO is Callaway as it only comes with the adapter. However I come close with 1/2 collared ferrules
Can you reuse the tips? I bought a new shaft with the wrong tip, so can I remove the tip from my old shaft and put it on the new shaft?
Thanks for your video! I need to swap adapters from a titleist 3 wood 910 adapter to a 915 adapter. I have the adapter, but no ferrule... can you sell me a 910 and a 915 ferrule? Or can you tell me where I can go to get 1 of each?
Are you sure you need to change? I put a 917 driver head on the shaft that came with my 910 driver. Fits fine. Fairway woods have the ssme adapter as the drivers.
Hi, I have a PXG gen 5 driver and the hosel looks pretty shallow. I was looking to switch my shaft out. Many of shafts have a TM or Titleist hosel on them. Do you know how deep that go onto the shaft? I'm wondering if there would be a weird paint defect if I went from one of those to my PXG. Before I purchase a used shaft I'd like to know . thx
The pig adapter is pretty much the same as the TM or title isn’t versions you will have to switch the adapter first
when are you going to actually get to how to remove & install the adapter? 7:30 just to get the adapter on the vice!
Can you swap out any tips? Like Cobra to Taylor Made?
Can I down 4° loft by connecting 2 adaptors in tandem?
Explaining!
I have adjustable Cobra driver. 8.5--11.5. I want 5° loft. I hit naturaly high....playing from scratch hcp.
So ading additional adaptor jn tandem....can I go down to 5 dgr?
No
My question is how do you get the shaft to be tight but not too tight with the adapter? Sometimes it seems the adapter is a tight fit--and it's touchy on how much to sand--AND then sometimes you put an adapter on and it gets stuck. How vigorously do you tap it down? Before you pull it off with a puller...and start again. thanks
in any case the idea is to seat the shaft at the bottom of the of the hosel. adjustable or not. if it takes a bit more sanding becasue of added layers of paint then sand a bit more. If it is loose and depending on how much it is loose consider a shim or some centering beads
Where do you buy adapter for that price?
Before you Glue in A1 is the right way?
Don’t you use fiberglass balls in the epoxy when you put on shaft?
Hi, What type of glue do you use to glue the adapter??
Tour set epoxy
Would love to see a video on removing a tip from an older model TaylorMade with the plastic ferrule without melting the ferrule piece. That always gives me trouble. Thanks!
What is your process to clean and re-prep the tip before install on a pulled shaft?
I use a knife to scrape the interference off the it removes the needed stuff without getting into the tip to much
Anyone know the size of the screw that threads into the adapter? if not ill be walking in to my local hardware store with a ping head to find the one that fits :)
Great video this. I just got a new shaft for my My 2016 M2, but the hole at the top of the tip is 3.25mm compared to the 3mm original hole and so the SLDR bolt won’t catch threads inside and tighten.
Is it possible to replace this SLDR bolt inside the head? And would it be an easier process than changing the tips over? Thanks
What type od epoxy should i used
Why didn't you check swing weight (sorry if question is dumb, I'm new to club making)
as it was just an adapter change I could not check it. However I did make sure the total weights where good.
How do you change one out that the shaft broke 1/2 inch above the insert
Square up broken end, then very carefully drill out the rest, using a small drill bit to start with, then increase the size of the drill bit each time, until the graphite is completely removed.
There's much ado about spining shafts and all that good stuff. My question is doesn't that really go out the window when speaking to an adjustable driver, you can literally rotate the shaft 365 degrees. As always thank you for your great videos.
2 things, 1) it depends on the adjustable driver. Callaway does not twist, you set cogs in the position. Again it depends on the maker.
2) if you have been fit and the builder puts in the spec and in the adaptor then there really isnt a need to move it after. but if you did then yes

Can you please post on adjustment of honma 747 driver
Id have to have the driver
Have you ever worked on a Rife Center shaft putter adapter...Replaced a broken shaft adapter?
Hi, I recently bought TS1 titlest driver that came with a fujikura speeder shaft, the airline broke the shaft, I wanted to ask you recommendation on which shaft should I buy considering I have a budget of 50 dollars in amazon
To much talking not enough action
Oh my god I know
Geez just get to fixing the club.
Hi. I have a Cobra driver. My Q is.....!.....What is the lowest loft/degree adaptors can be set to.
Believe me!....I need a 5° loft. Yes five degrees. Lets not argue. Bryson de C use a 5.5°......probably custom built by Cobra.
If you didnt know.....The late Calvin Pete who held driving accuracy nr.1 spot for 10yrs used a 4degree driver.
I naturally hitball high. So I loose a lot of distance as result.
Higher equals wider.....fact!
Lower is staighter!
What if you are going from a shaft with an adapter to a glue in?
the adapter has to come out and then check for fit in to the bonded head should be fine.

You'd be surprised how many people don't know how to replace a wax ring....

" Man that was alot of information. The title of the video said remove and install adapter. Was there any information on that? "
Ok
These are very poorly rated on Amazon. What do you think?
Victor got the “shaft” from his old company.
God this guy can ramble on . . . he could explain how to swap shaft tips in about 4 minutes, but he takes 17 minutes to get around to it?!
Thanks for noticing the level of detail explaining the right way to perform and particular evolution to ensure the proper way to exchange an adapter. Instead of improperly short cutting the information likely leading to an imminent failure of the adhesion of the two parts of the club and saving the golfer from an embarrassing situation while out with his buddies.
Why don't you just say the screw size and thread pitch that you are using for your "tool" for those adapters instead of trying to leave it like it is some black magic. You can get screws probably at Ace hardware.
mostly becasue its easier to get the kit from golfworks.
It would be easier to just take the adapter to Ace hardware, Fastenal, Home Depot, Lowes, etc match it up and just get it for a couple of bucks. But I understand he's got a business to run.

to much talking
Way too much talk. Let's get to the point! Thanks
Too much unnecessary talking in the beginning must get to the point
Too much talk not enough action
I’ll take that into consideration when planning the next video concerning golf club repair, golf club fitting or golf club reviews. Thus providing the best content we can provide for your consumption. Did we talk about the video set up for these uploads. Oh and thank you for the comment.
Then we got to have a bloopers real lol
Too much talking
And this dude has no clue about glue , grinding , anti fat prep before glueing etc
The fact you said anti fat prep tells me all i need to know
Talk too much....
Good gawd what a waste of time. Get to the point.
had to listen to too much bs. unsubscribe
are shafts for callaway clubs interchangeable?
