Posted May 5, 200519 yr Hi As a relative novice at clubmaking but the proud new owner of a tm R540XD 8.5 head, which weighs around 200grams. i need some help choosing a shaft. Using the criteria below can somebody recommend me one... 1) I need the club to swing at D2, the head is 200 grams and i will use a lamkin crossline grip with 2 layers of tape underneath, i want the driverlength to be 45 inches. What shaft weight should i go for? 2) In the weight category obtained by answering 1, can anyone recommend a low torque shaft that launches the ball higher than normal? I have heard that tm tour heads launch it low and 8.5 is a lower loft than i normally use. 3)Finally based on the shaft selection, how many inches should it be inserted into the head in order to get it to play to a stock stiff or even slightly stiffer. Thanks for all your help Rowan
