[mortuarymike-nv]

I just had a request for a heavy shaft 4.5 0z 29 inch 3x8 flat face .
pro taper I told the customer I didnt think i could do it.
Everything I got is 3.6 3.7 I have 1 coker shaft is 4.0
and i have a 29.5 bobby hunter shaft is 4.1 with ivory ferrule.

Are you guys making shafts that are 4.5 oz

Some people claim all their shafts are over 4 oz.
Never mind that they have baseball bat taper.

If he's wanting the popular thinking of almost straight barrel for 12-15 inches or so from the tip and wants it a 4.5 oz. , good luck.

4.5 oz for a no insert shaft and with a " pro-taper" is a very tall order.
Let's jus qualify "pro-taper" as 1.2 MM taper or less in the middle ( 14.5 " ) .
3.6-3.7 oz shaft with that taper and no insert would be common for quality shafts.
4 to 4.2 oz ones are of course out there and I like them too.
