What Old said is worth repeating in a bit more detail as it is critical to be aware of. Some telescoping shafts have only a relatively short section of the female portion of the shaft that actually engages with the male portion and this is connected to the yoke by a section of round tube. These shafts must be shorted as Old described because if you just trim the end off you would be shortening the portion of the shaft where the two pieces are in contact which would be a problem. (Potentially a very serious problem if too much is removed.) With other styles of PTO shaft the female portion has the same inside shape the entire length and these can be simply cut off at the end.
To prevent vibration and binding make sure there is still a healthy overlap (no less than about 5") of the male and female portions when the shaft is extended as far as it physically can be when connected. Take a little off at a time to make sure you don't sacrifice the extended overlap length for a more-than-necessary amount of clearance when the shaft is compressed as much as your tractor/mower combination requires.
