This guy! I found a good deal on Rifle flighted project X shafts off ebay last week. They arrived today. .370 tip and in my haste to get them installed, I read the wrong tip trim instructions. I read instructions for installing the .370 into a PW, cut 4.25" off the tip. I DIDN'T read the instructions for installing the wedge specific shaft into a wedge head, which I assume now to be butt trim to length only....

Imagine what happened when I trimmed 4.25" off a 37.5' shaft? Doesnt fit into the hosel and even if it did it would be way to short....

I AM A FREAKING CARELESS IDIOT!!!!

I need warmer weather, this cold is starting to affect my judgement.

Jim, that blows! Did you tip trim all of the shafts or just the wedge shaft?

I got so excited to install them, I wasn't really paying attention!

Arghhhh!

This is a stupid rookie mistake!
 
Shyte! Can you put them in a putter so they're not just javelins???
Lol! That's a good idea! Of course I just sent my extra putter to you and my gamer is being stripped-kind of-at the moment.
 
Down here they're antennas for cars. Put a little mascot on one end and put them back on ebay.
