Cut an inch off my driver and…

Post Body

Mid-High handicap here. About 20. Been struggling off the tee a lot. Ton of balls out of play. Decided to cut my driver shaft down an inch.

Funny story… lots of stuff going on and my head is a little foggy. Strip the old grip off. Prep the shaft by removing all the old tape and glue. Nicely apply the new tape, wet it down and slide the new grip on and SHIT. I forgot to actually cut the shaft. Was able to slide the grip off, cut the shaft, and get the grip back on. Anyway….

Played for the first time yesterday. Hit 10 out of 14 fairways and the four I missed were 2 or 3 yards off the edge. I’ve NEVER driven the ball that well. And didn’t notice any real difference in distance. Felt GREAT!!!!

Of course, I couldn’t hit an iron shot, or a wedge, and couldn’t putt. But at least I could get out of the box.

Oh my god I asked a literal pro if I could do this because I’m using his old clubs. I’m a beginner female using extra stiff shafts that are way too long.

Thank you for proving I’m right. It can be done.
