PAgolfer2017 Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 So maybe I'm the only one who is OCD about things like this, but is it possible to rotate the shaft adapter so the graphics are either face up or face down? I have a shaft with a cobra adapter, and when installed to my preferred loft, the graphics are positioned in a way that drive me crazy looking at it. Yes I know it doesn't affect the play, and I know it's purely OCD but is it possible to remove it and have it reinstalled? This is when I miss the Callaway adapter haha.

DPattGolf Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Yes you can. U will just need to have the ability to pull graphite shafts. * Staff Professional* Driver: Stealth Plus+ (7.25*) - Fujikura Ventus Black 6X Tipped 1" 3 Wood: Stealth Plus+ (14.25*) - Fujikura Ventus Blue 7x Tipped 1" Driving Iron: P790 UDI 2 iron - HZRDUS Smoke Black RDX 100 6.5 4 Iron: P790 - KBS C-Taper 130 X Irons (5-7) P7MC - KBS C-Taper 130 X Irons (8-P) P7MB - KBS C-Taper 130 X Wedges: MG3 Black 50.09 / 55.11 - KBS TOUR FLT 130 X 60* Wedge: High Toe Raw - KBS Tour 130 X Putter: Custom Black ER2 or Custom Black Del Monte Bag: FlexTech Stand Bag Glove: Tour Preferred Glove Ball: TP5X #11 RangeFinder: R1 Smart Rangefinder Instagram: @dpattgolf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
golfinnut Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 That's the issue with all of these Optifit adapters. If you are OCD about the logo facing a certain way, you are screwed unless you like taking things apart and putting them back together again. But that also weakens the shaft the more you do it. So .... find out what setting you like & stick with it. Set it & Forget it as they say. You also have this issue with certain grips. Ever notice that most OEM's use the standard GP Tour Velvet with no logo or special design on off the rack clubs? That's so you don't have the issue with the constant rotating of the adapter. I used to have that problem with the Titleist drivers until I found my setting and don't move it anymore. And if you use one of the new grips like the MCC Align .... you better Set it & Forget it with those grips. WITB: Do I like Titleist or what?

And instead of sending it back I figured I'd just do it myself. I'm not a fan of the tour velvets but that's another thing that drives me crazy.

NMNM Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 This could have all been avoided simply by having bendable hosels instead of mechanical contraptions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kor.A.Door Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 That's what I like about the Callaway adapter. The shaft doesn't move, the cogs on the adapter move. So the graphics and grip stay in the same position. Lefties are always in their Right Mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the graphics and grip stay in the same position. I know. I played the XR16 Pro and the Epic for awhile and loved that adapter. I've moved on from Callaway but their adapter is the best design in my opinion.
