I just recently bought a new STX Throttle Mens Goalie Shaft off of Ebay. I love the texture, weight and over all feel, but my problem lies with the fact that neither a eclipse, nemesis or guardian fit on it. Help, i dont want to waste my shaft, plus i have a newly strung head waiting for it

Stick the shaft in ice and boil the head. Then stick it fast.

Dotn boil the head. Just run the throat of the head under very hot water for 10 seconds, and slowly force it on to the shaft.

Drill a new hole, or use a self taping screw. If all else fails use tape.

can you just get a razer blade and cut the carbon wrapping down a bit?

I see, I saw this after I replied to your PM, so now I understand the situation better. If your shaft does not have a narrower part like I described, and is the whole carbon/kevlar combination all up and down the shaft, it's defective. You should try to get your money back.
