    I picked up a used 913F 15* with an Oban Kiyoshi Purple 75 and wanted to try it out in my 915F 16.5* head.  When I tried inserting the shaft and screwing it in, it was very difficult.  I did not want to force it and made sure I was inserting it straight as I do on my 915D2 and no luck.  It would go in partially but bottom out.  I tried the 915F head with another shaft I have and no issue inserting it.  After I compared the 2 shafts its pretty apparent that the threads are stripped in the adapter on the Kiyoshi.

    What are my options?  I really, really want to use the shaft with my 915F 16.5* as I have loved the Kiyoshi purple in other clubs and love the 915F head.  Does Titleist replace adapters on a used shaft? 

    Thanks, Bill

    Hi Bill,  As long as that adaptor and shaft was built together by us, we offer a retipping service to put a new adaptor on that shaft.   If the adaptor had been put on by an outside shop or the shaft has been "pured" or taken out and reinstalled, we will not work on the shaft. The MSRP for the new adaptor is $45.00 and this can be set up through any authorized Titleist shop.
