Titleist Driver Shaft Sleeve

On a Titleist 905r driver, the steel sleeve between the ferrule and club head is missing after the shaft got broken, any ideas on a fix? I have a 7/8′ ferrule to go on with the new stiff flex ETA shaft. Will this suffice? Thanks.

Titleist 905R Driver Reshaft

I have a Titleist 905R driver with the shaft broken off 1/2″ inside the hosel. I’ve been told by the 2 club repair men in my area the club is junk, throw it out. Where can I find a shaft for the bore through head and what length should the club finish out at?

Al,

Any .335″ shaft will work; standard length is 45″. The shaft will need to be drilled out, but is definitely not junk - other than it is an older model.

TaylorMade Iron Replacement Shaft

I have a broken TaylorMade rac R7 6iron with regular flex steel shaft and shaft band that says T-Step Ultralite. What would be the closest replacement? Thanks.

True Temper’s Dynalite Gold makes a close replacement choice.

Ping ISI Driver Ferrule

I have a Ping ISI driver that has a broken shaft. I noticed the head has what I would call a ferrule, but it doesn’t look the same. Can you tell me if that is something that is specific to Ping woods? Will I have to use that type of ferrule when I reshaft?

Jeff,

Yes, it is a special hosel/ferrule. Golfworks or Golfsmith will have the adapters that you need.

Ping ISI Iron Refinishing

Hi, I have noticed some light pitting on a couple of my shafts and wondered whether it would affect the overall performance of the irons? Can they be repaired/refinished? I’m playing with Ping ISI irons with JZ Cushin shafts. The irons have been in the family since new and have been looked after well.

The irons can certainly be refinished. Ping can do it and make the clubs look new. You can also try steel wool and WD40. This will surely help as well.

Regards,

Jeff
