Saluki91 Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 I need to replace the shaft in my 19* 816H2. I'd like to put a 1/2" extension in a shaft from a 21* 816H2 and use that... but a voice in the back of my head is saying "Don't be a cheap bastage! Buy a shaft that is cut for a 19* head!" Would the tipping of the extended shaft from the 21* head create spin/ball flight issues in a 19* head? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gchester33 Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 Its worth noting that the shafts are typically made exactly the same then cut down specific amounts from the tip and butt to reach the desired length so . Any time you tip you're going to get changes in flex characteristics and probably see a lower flight/launch. It might turn out that you love the distance/flight you get with a tipped shaft or you might hate the way it kicks. If you have the shaft laying around and you don't mind a permanent change to it, then I say go for it.
