Shaft tipping

[Arlarson]

So I have a Matrix Xcon 5 shaft that I am wanting to put in a 4 wood but can’t find any tipping instructions for it. What I have found is 1″ for a 3 wood and 2″ for a 5 wood. Does this mean that I should tip it 1.5″ for a 4 wood?

This is what I found, select tip trimming when you get to the site.  Says 1.5" for 4 wood.

Hello, I looked at the  Matrix Xcon 5 website and yes. You would start at "0" for driver and work down 1/2"" per wood. Then cut the butt to length. I would assume as it is not stated you would prep the tip with very light sandpaper as well, normal process on most shafts

Thank you both for the info.

What head type are you putting it in? It can make a difference.

I put it in a 16.5 degree diamond tour H7 fairway wood head. Since the weather here in Iowa has not been great I have only hit it on a simulator but have been impressed with it so far. I am thinking about ordering the same shaft to put in my driver.
