I think at least 1/4 inch or maybe 1/2 inch shorter, but someone else chime in who knows taylormade stuff better.

I think with the new soft ferrule on the Ping adapters, the insertion depth is the same as the newer TM adapters. There should be no prep showing.

 

No experience with the g30 adapters so I've only ever worked with those newer Ping's and I've always had prep showing after converting from TM to Ping. But it may have just been over zealous tip preps for the TM installations. I can double check and measure it out when I get home.

I just checked this with a TM pull. The Ping adapter with the soft ferrule covers the prep by 1/8"

So how much flex change is there by ping being looser by 1/4 inch?

 

I joke, I joke...

lol. Think it would actually be a bit stiffer due to lesser bottom bore to ground.

I measured too. The TM adapter will cover up 1-1/2" of the tip and the Ping only about 1-11/32" (a bit less than 1-3/8").

 

Now the TM doesn't need the full 1-1/2" of the covered tip prepped - only about ~1-1/4". So if the prep job for the TM install was extremely precise, you might not see anything after the Ping adapter install. Anything less perfect will have some prep showing.

 

 

 

What about tayloemade to Titleist. 1/2 I presume??

 

Assuming you're asking about playing length differences? If so, it depends on the particular head models. Depending on the combination typically it will be either 0" difference or 1/4".

Bumping this old thread.  Do the TM tip prep issues still apply to the current gen shafts?  Thinking of swapping a Stealth tip for a G425 tip.

Yes.   Ping is still the adapter that's most likely to have prep visible after switching from another OEM adapter.

That's a shame.  Thanks, Stuart!
