Spoon Posted September 17, 2007 Report Share Posted September 17, 2007 guys i have been experimenting with a lot of hybrid shafts lately, my most interesting was when i used a spare speeder fw shaft and tip trimmed it to fit my 22* hybrid, results were phenomenal. thats another story. now i have shafted a 24* gfield uw head with a Exsar IS2 Tour Spec graphite shaft pulled from a mizuno mp fli hi 3 iron. shaft is about 105 grams. had to add about 1/2" extender. the club feels extremely robust and solid. SW is d4. cpm came out to 280... i have mixed feelings about the compatability of a graphite shaft intended for irons on a hybrid. i recall i wanted to put an axiv shaft and even a roddio i10 graphite shaft i them but someone said it wasnt a good idea. will test the club in the range later in the day. trying this experiment becasue i got so many idle shafts lying around and it killed me to see that lonely gfield head left out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is just my take. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoon Posted September 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 17, 2007 CI have tried three times and none had worked out properly. This is just my take. il find out in an hour. taking this experiment with a grain of salt and dont expect it to work at all. who knows though there may be a little surprise. will have updates after i try it.

Spoon Posted September 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 17, 2007 i must say the shaft/head combo was quite a revelation. shaft is very very stable and feels like a very stiff iron shaft. for a minute i felt like i was hitting an iron. there is that distinct feeling at impact. most of my shots were very accurate and mis**ts from this combo were generally in the same direction but with a loss of 15 yards max. it takes some getting used to though a lot more effort to swing compared to the GD/speeder shafts. i will certainly give this more time, so far i like it. overall weight is another problem feels significantly heavier, id say the heaviest club in my bag. also concerned the sw @ d4. as all my other sticks are d2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phillip Alexander Posted September 17, 2007 Report Share Posted September 17, 2007 Don't necessarily know if I would put an iron shaft in a hybrid, however I am leaning towards a 95g hybrid shaft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoon Posted September 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 17, 2007 Don't necessarily know if I would put an iron shaft in a hybrid, however I am leaning towards a 95g hybrid shaft. it would never hurt jack to try and experiment results may surprise him. he can try the GD-ut95 Exsar IS2 Tour Spec Flex Weight Grams Torque Ball Flight Tip Butt Stiff 103 2.5 Mid .355 .610 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
