Tom,

Don't bother with number one, I've got one in the garage and they are shite.

Number 2 looks quite good but then so does the Ecomony shaft puller.

I bought This for £110 IIRC after my Number 1 option wasted a Fuji Pro 95 shaft.

I've got a GS account if you want either ordered for you.

Cheers
Gary

Better than some more expensive machines.

Cheers Gary,

Number 1 is out then.  Dont want to waste any shafts.

I like number 2 as you dont need a vice/workshop.  Most of my repairs are done in the kitchen :)

Number 3 needs the vice I think.

I've got a GS account but dont buy much.  Number 3 is £45.75 + £5.75 postage and then 17.5% VAT.  So it depends on the customs charge on WildWillys.

The only place I know near me that can pull shafts without damaging them is probably (golfbhoy'll love this) Kane Golf.  But they dont gaurantee it and I dont trust them.

At the moment i'm only considering taking the Accra out of the driver to tip it 1/2".

Cheers RM,

Just a pity they shut down their UK operation.

I think this one also needs the bench vice.

I almost bought a JB Junior Hydraulic Shaft Extractor from HERE as they get great reviews.

If you need it pulled soon take a drive through and I'll do it for you if you want.

Cheers for the offer Gary, I might just take you up on it.

They can be sourced direct from Golfworks or Diamond Golf in Sussex would probably be able to source them, in fact i believe they may be in their range this year as a stock item.

All decent pullers will need a vice or be bolted to a bench to work properly.

I bought one of these a few years back when cheap/value extractors weren't available, seems a bit expensive compared to the one recommended by RM but it's done me for 5 years (or more, I forget when I got it).
