Spine Alignment will place the shaft's natural spine in the 3 O'clock position for a right handed golfer or 6 O'clock for a left handed golfer. The spine will be away from the face of the club. If you prefer a different spine alignment please let me know upon ordering. Be advised that the spine alignment will usually not line up with the shaft's label or logo. This service is for a raw shaft only before assembly. Customer is responsible for shipping both ways. I will give an actual shipping cost for shafts that need to be shipped back to customers.
