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.
)
Ummm…WTF
VigilanteTrail He does swing fairly fast…
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.
After further thought…what about unintentional (or intentional 
) twisting of the head as the causal factor?
Does it matter why or how it broke? I'm going with a 2nd shooter on the grassy knoll.

Yes it matters ya crabby bastage! 
I want the truth dammit!!

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!

You make me laugh out loud, Bob. It's appreciated 
Is he a guy that leans on the club with one hand to tee up the next ball?
Reminds me of the driver I kept at my inlaws place in AZ. We're visiting and my FIL tells me I'll have to use his old driver as mine is broken. He can't remember if my wife's uncle or cousin was using it, but the shaft snapped.
Shows me the club (Infiniti Propulsion) which looks just like the pic here except there is a big dent in the heel shaped the size of a golf ball. You can even see a dimple pattern in the dent! WTF did they slam it down on the ball? My FIL swears he never saw what happened lol.
SMT Wait, what? Is there another way? Stopped bending over years ago and can't get back up if I take a knee. Wet tee boxes suck.
VigilanteTrail You Safety guys always want to know things, call it operator error and move on
