Because you can’t see what brand of shaft it is !!! The shaft snapping has nothing to do with PXG, people are only going on about it because it’s PXG.
I know it hasn’t.
Calm down precious 😳😂

Of course its something to do with PXG. PXG sourced the shaft, and I assume a damned good shaft. PXG are responsible for the product, irrespective of where the components where sourced from. PXG would be contractually obliged to the buyer if Joe Public had one that snapped. No doubt there's been some discussions behind the scenes with their supplier but outwardly its a PXG issue.
You're only looking at from your perspective. To the layman, 90% of golfers or people with only a passing interest who don't even play, they are looking at that video thinking nothing more than "his PXG driver just broke in his hands". It's that simple really.I still don't see it. Say for arguments sake it was a KBS shaft, it is that that has failed and whether that is down to the shaft itself or an issue with the epoxy, the head of the club itself isn't the problem. The issue would like either with KBS and the quality of that shaft or the fitter. If it's the latter then yes it would be a PXG issue as I imagine their guys put the club together and there may be a discussion as to what happened but other than that I don't see the fuss. Imagine the meltdown if it was one of the M5 or M6 drives and DJ or another of their poster players that was pictured with the head flying!!!

The layman, as you call him, probably hasn't got a clue what clubs PP plays or who PXG are and what marketing claims they may make.
The only people bothered seem to be a bunch of saddoes occupying a golf forum and who are never likely to be buying PXG products in any event.
Hobbit is absolutely correct that it is PXG's problem even if the it was a shaft problem.
If you or I bought a PXG club from a PXG fitter, or Mizuno from a Mizuno fitter or whatever. Even if they do no not manufacturer the shaft you are buying the club as a whole. PXG or whoever are guaranteeing the quality, and you will have the Consumer Rights Act on your side where an item bought by a consumer has to be of sufficient quality.
Yes if it is a shaft problem PXG will go back to KBS or Nippon or whoever and recover the costs or find out if it was a one off or a batch error. But from a consumers point of view PXG are at fault. So when they see a video of a PXG club breaking, most people know that if that happens to their clubs then the manufacturer is responsible therefor PXG are at fault
Don't think Pat Perez will have a claim against PXG!
My point is, Who cares?
As far as I am aware PXG haven't denied responsibility and I am sure that, like all manufacturers they would treat any customer fairly in the event of a similar failure.

If it happened during a competition round he can replace it’s long as it is deemed accidental, damaging it by slamming it into the ground in temper or something else you can’t repair it and can’t use it.
