QUESTION: Hi,

I am about to tip trim some Aldila Gamer shafts for a set of irons.The trim
charts I found state that you should take off 1/2″ from the three iron down to
the wedges.That would make the pitching wedge 4″ on the tip trim.Looking at
Golfworks trim chart(IR21),The wedges are trimmed to 3-1/2″.Could you please
give me some input on this matter. Thanks!! Anthony

 
ANSWER: Hi Anthony,

I wouldn’t get too concerned over a 3 1/2″ tip trim versus a 4″ tip trim. The actual playing difference is slight. My only suggestion is if you like your wedge to have a bit more feel via a softer shaft flex, tip trim your wedge shaft at 3 1/2″. If you like your wedge to be stiffer than your #9 iron, go ahead and tip trim your wedge shaft to 4″. Regards, Mark
