Shaft Trimming Charts

How To Determine Which Chart To Use:
1. Locate you shaft on the web site
2. Locate your chart number, listed under "Use Trimming Chart" for each shaft
3. Find the correct chart below.

Note:

• All measurements are in inches cut from the tip end unless otherwise specified.
  
• Butt trim to length after tip trimming, unless otherwise noted. Total length includes the club head.
  
• Before making any cuts, be sure that trimming according to these directions will allow the club to be made to the desired length. If not, speak to our technical staff for the recommended adjustments.

Example:
To trim a UDGIR300 True Temper Dynamic Gold shaft for a #2 Iron

1. Look at the True Temper Dynamic Gold shaft, UDGIR300, by clicking here.
2. Follow the chart over to the column "Use Trimming Chart" which says to use Chart 1.
3. Looking at Chart 1 below, the intersection for a #2 on Chart 1 is 0.50. Trim 0.50" from the tip of the shaft.

Chart 7 Special Instructions for Rocket Steel
The unique design of these shafts incorporates a lengthened tip section and will require that these shafts be trimmed to length from the tip only.

Chart 8
Irons:     Butt Trim 1" for #1 - #LW then cut tip to lenght
Woods: STD Bore - (i.e. "TM250W") Butt Trim 1" for #1 - #15 then tip to length.
                Deep Bore - (i.e. "948W") Butt Trim 1/2" for #1 - 15 then tip to length.

Standard Bore	1.25	1.75	2.00	2.25	2.25	2.25

Blind Bore
The shaft penetrates the club head and stops within approximately 1/2" of the bottom of the head.
Standard Bore
The shaft, when inserted into the hosel, stops approximately 1" or more from the bottom of the club head.

Instructions for Combination Flex Shafts for Chart 10
The tip trimming chart above will yield the weaker of the two flexes in combination flex shafts. To achieve the firmer of the tow flex options in a combination flex shaft, add the following length to the recommended tip trip: To get an "S Flex", add 2 " (steel), or 1" (graphite) to the above recommendation. For a "A Flex" in A/L combination shafts add 1" for both steel and graphite.
Note: Combination flex refers to those shafts which can be made different flexes depending on how the shaft is trimmed.

Chart 10a
For the UTTXLWC and USNTTXLWC. Add 1" to the above measurements for regular flex and 3" to the above measurements for stiff flex. (Example: to achieve a regular flex in a standard bore 5 wood with a UTTXLWC, take 3.25" off the tip.)
