Tour pros probably get a brand new set a soon as they show any signs of wear. Mickelson bought several sets of Rifle satin shafts to ensure his clubs always had the same type of shaft in.

Can assure you they dont and their clubhead will wear out long before the shafts, what about stenson his irons are ancient, stricker uses irons from 2006, they dont replace them for any other reason than they dont like them or the heads on some of the irons are worn out. You cannot damage a golf club by carrying it, you get a little head chap but that is not damage

Don't know if you can make out the pitting in these images, it's mainly scratches to be fair, I'm not sure wether it's corrosion or not.
clubchamp98 - the heads are in perfect condition, in fact when I received them they looked brand new, hardly any marks on the face or heads. Unfortunately didn't inspect the shafts closely enough, at first glance they looked pristine, it was only the other day when I caught it in the light I spotted it. They are True Temper R300 shafts.

I would'nt worry about it, looks very minor to me. Looks like you could probably polish it off

To be fair, pros don’t have their clubs long enough to tell ?

Fire an email away to Titleist, you never know your luck.
Someone put a huge diddy mark on a Cobra driver and got it replaced. What's to lose other than your brass neck.

Ok I would say it’s a manufacturing fault.
The shafts May have not been cleaned properly before chrome process.
But it’s only a guess.

Bit of false info on the original post. The clubs were actually bought new in July 2019, so when I bought them they were only 4 months old. Anyway they have gone back to the retailer and they have returned the whole set back to Titleist for inspection.
I'll keep you posted on the outcome.
