Re: How hard is it to reshaft an FT-i?

I've pulled shafts from FTi's and it's possible so far have had good luck with it. I recommend a shaft puller and use very low heat but it's possible. Just try to stay away from the stove and foot puller method :-)

Every FT-i I have shafted has been with a .335. Absolutely no issues whatsoever.

Send Ken @ Victory an E-mail. He's done a couple of mine, does GREAT work. Plus you get discount and fast shipping.

Lol. I'd never even consider it with a composite or bore-through. Cobra, Cleveland, TM and Nike are very easy though. Fairway woods and hybrids are virtually foolproof and obviously irons are a piece of cake. You really can't fck up pulling a steel shaft out of an iron.
