Best Answer

For a steel shaft, a tubing cutter is the best way. You get a clean cut perpendicular to the axis. You'll need to have a hardened wheel that can handle the stainless steel. For high production volume shops a cutoff saw with an abrasive wheel is typical.

For graphite, a hacksaw with an abrasive blade works well.

If you want to know how much to cut off, you can get basic recommendations from whoever sold you the shaft.

You might "trim" or shorten the shaft of a Golf club if it is too long for the person using it. Basically, the club was designed for a taller person than the one wishing to use it, but it is often cheaper to shorten the shaft of an old club than get a new shaft or new club.

You should simply mark the desired length, and then using a rotating saw and being careful you should cut just below the marked line. You should then use a sander to smooth off the shaft to the correct length, and then you are ready to put your shaft into your club.
