Drewrealty Posted May 28, 2008 Report Share Posted May 28, 2008 (edited) greetings all Got a set of miura blades with tour concept shafts in them. My son has been caught swiping my 8 iron and hitting it quite accurately. I am shocked at this because I always thought that a 'blade' was a club that typically required a higher swing speed. He has great mechanics and strikes the ball well. He is presently using an R7 TP head with true temper gs75 shaft --which is a great shaft, btw!! At the risk of losing my blades forever to him...I was wondering what other TSG-ers play in their blades for shafts? Have heard great things about the kb tour shafts, I personally love my ns-pro 850's in miura cb 202's but what about the sweet, slower swinger? Is it possible to hit a blade with a lighter weight shaft on a consistent basis? I keep waiting for him to miss hit it, or knock it off center, figuring the tour concepts are too heavy, but he is either a magician or an even better ball striker than I imagined. No distance lost with the heavier shaft and accuracy is much better. The question is ..Is their an even better shaft combo out there to go with the baby blades for the slower, sweeter swinger -- sounds like the perfect club for austin powers ! Let me know your experiences....Thanks.... Edited May 28, 2008 by Drewrealty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bombardier Smith Posted May 28, 2008 Report Share Posted May 28, 2008 MY adice regardings shafts in any club is to go and get fitted using a launch monitor.most modern places will also let you hit balls on the practice ground too. so you can feel and evaluate your shots and see how good the club fitters skills are. Experience the difference its money well spent! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjp1 Posted May 28, 2008 Report Share Posted May 28, 2008 KB Tours feel and perform well in Miura clubs. I've hit the KB Tour, PX and Tour Concept in the different Miura heads, and preferred the KB Tour most. I also played these in my Scratch irons with success. I believe they are available in a 4.5 flex, which can be tweaked. Since you're in the area, call Mike Fix at High Launch Golf in Fredericksburg and ask for a demo 6i of the Blade/KB Tour to try.
