Graphite Shaft Replacement Length

I have a Mizuno MX-950 hybrid no.3 with steel shaft. The length is 38.75″. I would like to reshaft them with a graphite shaft. What should be the new length of the club?
Ronald, San Francisco, California, USA

Ronald,

It depends on the weight of the shaft and the desired swingweight. Typically graphite shafted clubs (assuming a lighter weight graphite shaft) are 1/2-1″ longer than their steel counterparts.
