Just curious.

Thanks!
My extensions work fine and they are 2" long (which is the recommended maximum length of extension).
I haven't actually lengthened my shafts as I took 2" off of the tip before fitting the extensions, thereby turning my R300 shafts into S300 for a fraction of the cost, and I was needing to regrip anyway (I replace all my grips 3 times a year).

As Lowpost says, it's a very easy job to do.
Take time over your prep work and everything will go smoothly.
