Heads should also weigh the same and the same amount of shaft should be in the heads.
I don't know these clubs so you're on your own. However, the shafts do change performance depending on the head weight and also the amount of shaft in the head.

Check whether the r11 shaft has a plastic or metal sleeve.
Not sure if pulling the r11 sleeve if it is the plastic variety will work as well as the metal version.
Never done it myself. Anyone have any experience?

Tipping on the two is identical= NONE.
Just be careful that you don't overmelt the plastic ferrule on the R11 adapter and gunk up your shaft by bonding it on.
The only other thing I can think of is that the PING adapters are 335 and unless your r11 is a TP, the shaft and sleeve are of the 350 ilk.
