I've been playing up to this point in the high school golf season with the stock Stiff Ping CFS shaft, which I know are too flexible for my swing. The Mizuno shaft optimizer fitted me into a KBS Tour X-stiff (softstepped once), but due to some issues with the Ping ordering process I had to make do with the stock stiff in order to have the irons in time to practice with them before the golf season. I do, however, want to get them reshafted to the proper shaft (I played a KBS Stiff before and liked the weight and feel better than the CFS).

My dilemma is that I have already qualified for the state tournament (playing pretty well in the process) with the CFS shafts and I'm not sure if I should make the switch in the two weeks I have leading up to the tournament. I play well with what I have now and am used to it, but I know that I prefer something else. I don't know if I should reshaft now or wait until after the tournament has passed to do it. Any thoughts on the matter?

Don't change before a competition.  It will put doubt into your head.

^^^^^^ This ^^^^^^

You've been playing well.  Stick with what's working and keep all those positive thoughts going.  The off-season is the time to goof around with new swings/shafts/feels etc...  Not 2 weeks before the biggest tournament of the year.
