Posted March 12, 200420 yr comment_29209 I have a nv 75s in my 983E with an insertion of 1.75" I want to install a 85s in my MP-001 with a similar feel. What is the bore depth of the Mizzy? How much should I tip the 85s? Aldila says 1" for fairway woods but I want to match up with my driver (their recommadation seems too general) Stiffer would be better than too soft. Thanks

Thanks IMHGO, No one can give you the exact # here, so you might want to get yourself a frequency machine if you really want to match it "perfectly" w/ you driver or go to a really good and experience club maker that can promise you he will get it on the spot. IMO "Feel" wise comparing 75 to 85grams... This is a tough one to judge. Good luck! Joe Kwok
March 17, 200420 yr comment_29864 Pigpen, I'm a little suprised Aldila told you 1". I reshafted a Mp-001 3 wood on Monday, when I called them they said 1/2" 3 wood and 1" for 5 wood. They also said absolutely do not tip more than 1" Hope this Helps
March 17, 200420 yr Author comment_29896 Actually the 1" came from their web site. I contacted John at Aldila "aka shafted on a different forum" and he suggested tipping 1.25" and if I wanted it a little stiffer to with 1.5". Since a fairway wood is slightly heavier than a driver. 208 driver. mizzy 3wd about 215 I decided to split the difference and I am going to tip 1.375 or 1 3/8". If anyone thinks this is a bit much please shout quickly because it is going in the head this evening. Wednesday. I will have it back for Saturday round and let everyone know how it turned out. Thanks for all replys
