September 2, 20223 yr Ever since I experienced the Dogatti PT putter shaft several years ago when it was introduced, I always had the shaft in at least one of my putters. The head naturally needed to be one that would accept a 9.2mm ( .355") diameter shaft. Like a plumbers neck type head. So I had the shaft in an anser style head most of the time. However, someone at Mitsubishi came up with a shaft adapter that would allow installing a carbon putter shaft on a head that has an over -the-hosel type neck. It's not the most pretty result, but heck, I like the shaft so much I decided to try this method on one of my over-the-hosel Benock putters!! A couple of Dogatti shafts on order along with these putter shaft adapters from Mitsubishi! Will post pics once I have one built. In the mean time, here is an example of what it would look like.
September 2, 20223 yr It’s ok. Bit too untidy for me. If I liked the shaft that much after all the tinkering, deciding it was the putter shaft. Heck I would just have the putter hosel changed to accommodate, If I wanted a more professional look.

A Benock Pantaleone in a plumbers neck would not do itself any justice! 🙂

September 4, 20223 yr I think LAGOLF were supposed to be producing an over-the-hosel version of their shaft. That would surely look better than an adaptor.

I looked this up.... but they provide zero explanation of how this is achieved and no info on the inner diameter of the tip. If its a single piece carbon fiber tip, I'd be too worried about the tip section breaking due to the wall thickness being too thin. Only way I can think of is to make the shaft with hybrid construction a la Bi-Matrix with a metal tip section and cover the connection area with a nice heavy coat of paint. :) Aesthetically, that would be better for sure.

Aesthetically yes Nobs. But your attracted to the Dogatti based on feel ? Will be interested on how these builds turn out. Hopefully you have come across a solution.
September 4, 20223 yr i dont mind that 1 iota. ive beee mucking around with grips/ shafts liek never before on putters to find the best match. ive got several heads i cant fix due to the inser type not matching the NS purple i have . seriusly i much have 30 putter sahfts than dont match, this might solve a few issuses where do i get them ?
September 11, 20223 yr Author do a google look up on ディアマナ チップアダプタ ... should get you several online sources.
