Changing the shaft in a Ping G20 driver?

[caniac6]

I don't like the shaft in the new Ping driver, and I am considering changing to a slightly heavier shaft. Speaking with Ping,they say that because their shaft is counter balanced, I would have to shorten the new shaft to maintain the proper swing weight. Has anyone else switched shafts on this club, and if so, how were your results? Thanks.

I put an attas in my i15 and kept the same length without any problems.

I might be putting in a Graphite Design DJ-6 and I'll let you know.  I would shorten it anyway, Ping stock is 45.75"

I just got a new shaft put in my new G15 driver.  I believe it is a 45" shaft, but I don't know what the original shaft lenght was?  I thought 45", but I could be wrong.  Regardless, I have noticed a huge difference with a properly fitted and higher quality shaft.  Go for it.

There are swing weights you can put in the grip/butt of the shaft to offset the counter balance point of the shafts...

I had a Grafalloy Pro launch blue shaft put in, and it measured E-1 swing weight. They had to put a lot of weight in the butt end to offset the additional weight in the head This made the club feel very heavy. The club hit very straight,but I am afraid I might hurt myself trying to use this club. Unless Ping starts making drivers without "special" head and shaft combos,this will be the last Ping driver I will ever own.
