Anyone have any good places to get a driver reshafted in NYC? Should I just take it to golfsmith? Thanks

NY Golf Center on 35th near Macy's is very highly regarded as a clubfitter, I have to imagine they do club alterations on site. May be pricier than Golfsmith, they seem to charge a decent premium on most of what they do

Callaway X-24 10.5° Driver, Callaway Big Bertha 15° wood, Callaway XR 19° hybrid, Callaway X-24 24° hybrid, Callaway X-24 5i-9i, PING Glide PW 47°/12°, Cleveland REG 588 52°/08°, Callaway Mack Daddy PM Grind 56°/13°, 60°/10°, Odyssey Versa Jailbird putter w/SuperStroke Slim 3.0 grip, Callaway Chev Stand Bag, Titleist Pro-V1x ball

Thanks, I just picked up a TM Jetspeed driver to replace my burner SF 2.0, and I'm thinking the stock shaft might be a bit too long.

One other question, I'm a high handicap, and relatively short (5'8"). Should I just get the stock shaft cut down to 44 inches from 46 instead of replacing it?

Check the fitting guidelines on the manufacturer's website. Wrist to floor measurement is more relevant than your absolute height. 46" is long for anyone though. The answer is to get fit and not play guessing games, but if you can't or don't want to shell out the money (understandable) maybe try some shorter drivers and see how you get on. Cutting a shaft 2 inches can make a big difference to weight and flex though so be careful.

    • So you understand this format is intended to get as many people involved as possible, but you prefer a format where the only scores that are likely to count are those of the better players.  How often do you think the score of the D player would count?  And knowing his score won't count, why would be "be bothered" to play?   I'm not a fan of scrambles, but I understand the reason to use the format.  I DO enjoy meeting club members, and I believe that my club's spring scramgle is relatively free of cheating, although there definitely ARE some players who overdo the libations.  If your club's scramble is rife with cheating, that's a problem with the culture of your club, not a problem with scrambles in general.  
    • I know that every golf outing is always a scramble because of the varied skill levels, but my buddy thinks I'm a snob because I don't like to play our club's kickoff event, which is an A-B-C-D scramble.  Yeah, I get the point of it to mix teams up and get to know other/new members, but I honestly can't be bothered.  Would much rather that they play it as a SWAT format - still A-B-C-D players, but you only count the lowest gross score (no gimmes).   I just don't get the point of scrambles beyond people who love to booze it up and they are always rife with cheating.
