Ara selai Posted November 26, 2011 Report Share Posted November 26, 2011 All, I'm getting a set of Miuraism clubs from Supo with Shimada Tour shafts installed. I love the way these felt when I tried the clubs, and am looking forward to the combination. My other set of clubs that I use regularly are Miura CB-2006s with Nippon NS Pro 850s installed. In retrospect, they're too light for me. I was at the driving range last night and found a set of Shimada Constant shafts installed in a set of Vega VC01s. The Pro Shop is willing to pull the Constants and install them in my CBs, but I was wondering if the slight increase in swing weight (98 vs 85 g) is worth the hassle, and whether the Constants have any other differences to the Tours, or the Nippons?

sandee11 Posted November 26, 2011 Report Share Posted November 26, 2011 I think the shimada tour is about 110-120g, I have a set in my new epon iron, have not play yet, will play tomorrow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbs Posted November 26, 2011 Report Share Posted November 26, 2011 I think the shimada tour is about 110-120g, I have a set in my new epon iron, have not play yet, will play tomorrow! I only have shimadas in my wedges and they feel great. maybe i should look into putting them into my irons. they should be wonderful Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eca Posted November 26, 2011 Report Share Posted November 26, 2011 Nice Pick up! This the SB02s? I'd leave then as is until you get time to get used to them. Sounds like a real good combo from Stew's write up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ara selai Posted November 26, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2011 I'm definitely keeping the Tours in the SB02s. Too sweet a setup to ever consider messing with! Stew is spot on in his previous posts. I was thinking of changing the NS Pros out of the CBs for the Constants. Bit more weight, and they felt really great in the Vegas.

Ara selai Posted November 26, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2011 The other consideration is that they'd run around $400 installed with Iomic sticky 2.3 grips. Seems pretty pricey! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ara selai Posted November 26, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2011 The SB02s just arrived. Right off the bat, I can see one difference: the Tours are stepped; the Constants are tapered. Not sure if that equates to any difference in flight or feel. Thanks for any feedback anyone can provide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supo Posted December 6, 2011 Report Share Posted December 6, 2011 and now sir, how play they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ara selai Posted December 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2011 The K's are PERFECT in the SB02s. I recommend these shafts highly to anyone looking for a no-nonsense, smooth, and pure shaft. Great flight, outstanding feedback, ZERO harshness. Could not ask for anything more. My original question was whether anyone had any thoughts on the Constants, which are slightly lighter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
