Re: Golf Clubs Lengthened

I also have a similar dillema. I ran across a set of black dot Ping Eye 2 BeCu at a local golf shop for $249 and I thought it was a bargain and I liked the appearance so I bought it. What I didn't realize at the time was that these clubs were about 1 inch shorter than what I normally play with.

I also have a set of blue dot Ping G2's w/ stiff steel shaft, standard length. I recently got fitted for Ping and the fitter said that I should play the blue dot and .25" longer in regular flex.

I have about $250 in store credits and considering reshafting Ping G2's with TX-90 or Rifle Airlite in regular flex (I would appreciate any feedback on light steel shafts) and using the pulled shafts to replace Ping Eye 2's.

My questions are:

Is this even worth while doing?
Can pulled shafts be used again?
How much difference does 1 inch of length and 1 degree of lie make?

This is only my 2nd time posting (1st was intro) and I would like to thank you in advance.
