Has Anyone repaired a X-18 iron?

[TWShoot67]

Hello guys, I've been building my own sets for years and pulling shafts and what have you. But I haven't had any time on repairing a hallway X-18 pw. My buddy asked if I could fix it but it looks like there may be some kind of sleeve or something that goes over the shaft and then into the hosel. i've looked around on the web to see if there is such an animal and the only thing i've found is a special ferrule. Any help would be appreciated.

 

Thanks, Tim

Is it possibly just a shim to up the tip size to .370 ?

 

I did a few quick searches online and a few sites discussed some intersting things callaway does to the shaft tips, slitting etc.

 

Good Luck,

It accepts a .370 shaft, and the TT Dynalite is the closest replacement. It also uses S2H2 shafting with a starburst. To do the starburst, simply cut 1" long slits in the tip of the shaft after tipping to flex (parallel, not taper, so you'll have to tip it to flex, unless you're going to use a taper tip, in which case, simply cut the starburst pattern in the tip and put the bore thru plug in it. If you're using a parallel, you don't have to use the starburst pattern, but for continuity and aesthetics, you may want to. If you're using a taper tip shaft, you have to to make it the proper diameter. Tapers are constant weight, where parallels aren't. It's really up to you how you do it.
