I have an old driver I want to get a new shaft put in (old one broke). The club is a $35.00 "Billy Club" I bought from Sams like 6 years ago. I don't think I have been able to hit my Taylor Made or Callaway as far as I used to hit this driver. I found the head in my garage over the weekend and thought I would just get it reshafted for the heck of it and see if I can still hit it.

What kind of shaft do you guys recommend and what is a good price? This is the first time I have done this and I don't want to get ripped off.

Thanks guys.

Choices are unreal in terms of what benefits the different shafts offer.

Unfortunately, I found that the price of reshafting is steep....at least in the shaft I wanted. I was going to reshaft my TM 300 but it was going to run around $135 or so. For $165 more I was able simply to order a new 460cc headed G10 with the exact shaft I was going to put in the old TM 300.

I'll keep the old driver as a good windy day back up driver....keeps it below radar no matter how I swing.

Shafts have really developed nicely over the past few years.....but so has the cost.

I'm not trying to talk you out of reshafting....simply saying you may want to consider the cost and look around at some new clubs, too. TGW, Edwin Watts, Golfsmith and etc are running huge discounts on two model year old brand new clubs with a wide array of shafts.....($125 and up). I almost went this route but I really wanted the V2 HL shaft and couldn't find it amoung these super bargains.

Good luck.
