Okay so just bought a cobra zl and that shaft is at 46" playing at D4.
What will happen to swing weight when i tip it an inch to play at 45"

Will i lose 4 sw point or 2. hell it is a 62 gram shaft, is it even worth while?:smt087

Probably closer to 5-6 swingweight points...and it'll play stiffer, of course, which I assume is the intention? 62g shaft is OK, it's the tip trim that'll affect the flex (and playing length to a lesser extent), and the difference in length that'll affect swingweight.

It's worth it if the club in existing form isn't performing...either length, flex, ballflight etc etc. THAT DOESN'T MEAN IT WILL WORK !!!

looks like it might have to go back to cobra for adjustment :(
