For cryin' out loud! Use a little
initiative and do a google search. I'm not trying to flame you but
jeez, it's such a simple thing to do.Type in callaway replacement
shafts. At the very top of the results you'll get a Golfsmith page.
Click on that. Then go to the PDF file of OEM replacement shafts.
Or, get your favorite suppliers
catalog out and look for lightweigh, cheap, graphite shafts. Buy any
60 - 70 gram shaft. BB shafts are crap anyway so anything you buy will
be an upgrade. Get a Graftech Lite for $6.95. Get a Rapport lite for
$24.00. Get a generic Maltby for $14.00. Get a UST ultra lite for
$14.95. Take a ride to GS and pick up any light shaft.
Firm it up? Tip it. Add an inch?
Most shafts are 46", which is an inch longer than Callaway standard. If
you tip a shaft you'll have to plug the butt end.
Too bad you're in a hurry. I think
I have a couple of GBB pullouts somewhere in my pile.
By the way. You should specify
which Callaway BB you're talking about. Is it in fact a BB, a Biggest
BB, or a GBB? Actually it doesn't make much difference in shaft
selection. They're all crap anyway.

[Fwd: URGENT HELP ShopTalk: big bertha shaft replacement]
-------- Original Message --------
A customer of mine called at my house around 9 pm last night with the
head of his Big Bertha in one hand and the shaft in the other
last year he brought the same club to me with the shaft broken a third
of the way up. as it was still under guarantee i sent it back to
Callaway and they replaced it (three week turnaround from Canada) this
time it sheared off right at the top of the hosel
So I said to him" Ok we' ll send it back again" "Can you get it back
for me by friday" he says I'm off to Scotland Saturday and
Booked to play St Andrews next week." " No way Jose" I says best i can
do is substitute
So I have to replace with a good quality equivalent Callaway BB UL
regular flex
He wants me to" add an inch and firm it up a bit"!!!
What is the best at reasonable price?
Regards Jeremy
Thanks every one for all the very diverse info.
