Par4QC Weak-assed, soft tipped, OEM shaft.

Well…at least now I have a buyer for the brand new Tensei AV Raw Orange stiff that is out in my shop…😜😂

    ode Consistent heel strikes can lead to shaft breakage

    Maybe he did hit it off the heel so damn hard that it exploded? He does swing fairly fast… I dunno man…🤷🏻‍♂️

        I don't know that Ping or any OEM would replace that shaft. I think their consensus is much the same as here....abuse....if it's at the hosel/in the adapter. Would probably need to be 6" above to get a new one. (In The Rex driver company...it would be those rules.😄)

          Jake hit a drive yesterday, and I told him to look at the face, and see where he hit the ball. It went, but I knew from the flight where he hit it. Dead on the heel, almost missed the whole ball, but no paint mark. Warned him about shaft breakage.

              Par4QC what's his club speed? I'm wondering how fast is fast enough to break shafts with repeated heel strikes.

                  After further thought…what about unintentional (or intentional 😳) twisting of the head as the causal factor?

                    VigilanteTrail jmo, but those shafts are weak. I've 'waggled' the drivers in stores and the S flex seems whippy for even my miniscule biceps.
                    I sold a set of Ping irons last summer to a fella that proceeded to break 3 shafts, at the hosel....those TFC. I did get to play in a tourney with him last Fall and could see that it was not from hitting the ground. Hard, fast swing....wrong flex/wrong shaft.

                    Your bro may just be a beast and you won't admit it. 😄

                        This is in complete violation of the sibling bylaws…never will that admission be communicated…

                        He is a beast alright…a beast that doesn’t know how to consistently hit a damn driver! 😆😆
