    Default Split shaft?

    Not sure if I put this up yet. Happened a few weeks ago. Not sure if it’s split or just the outside coating?

    Coptors, tomahawks, bag sliding around in the boot of the car, testing the flex with the head on the ground, general use.

    Who knows, clubs not even a year old, last driver was 5yrs and no issue. Maybe faulty one?

    Maybe, maybe not. Doesn't take much to damage a shaft that will be quickly magnified with use.

    I worked in a pro shop for 2yrs, and saw a few break like that. It seems to marry up where an iron head hits / rubs on it in the bag.

    I've seen warranty request go both ways - but if your driver looks in good nick and show no sign of abuse, the odds are mostly in your favour.
