Shorten shaft on 5 wood

[Superplumber]

What would be the effect of cutting down a 5 wood say 1 to 2 inches to get distance down to 190-200. Appears to be yardage I struggle with. Haven't found a h rid that I hit we'll. I got 5 wood good. Kinda ballon 7 wood gonna try that route also

It will stiffen the shaft and lighten swing weight immensely

What fairway woods do you have? Do the different FWs come from same model?

You give us no clue as to your overall set make-up. So, we can't help you much. Consider placing a What's In My Bag club listing in your sig line, or create a Bag segment in your Lists area.

no need to cut the club, just choke down. also create more lag to hit more distance and not balloon the ball, and vice versa to decrease distance.
