What would cause a new graphite shaft to break inside the grip about three or four inches from the end? This happened on the second golf ball hit with this club.

Assuming no abuse, one of the only reasons I can think of is if the shaft was damaged while clamping the club in order to grip it. If they are very lightweight, thin-walled shafts, then I have seen damage in putting the shafts on deflection board or bearing spine finders too.
