Anyone tried the All-Fit Universal driver shaft adapter ? Only change the Cog to hit with other brands.

Feedback

I have a couple that I used with an M1, M2, Cally GBB & Ping G30 just fine. I assume that it'll be able to fit the newest clubs that are coming to market.

Feedback

Just bought one. Does anyone know if the base piece is made from plastic or metal? In other words, I'm curious if it can be removed and easily attached to another shaft. Or is it a "use-once" only?

Feedback

This topic is a bit old. But I just bought couple of them. They look like they are good fit. However, I can't find any instructions how to set it up. For TaylorMade it is pretty straight forward but for Callaway, it is not as straight forward unless I am missing something.
