Posted March 24, 200420 yr just bought a 970 15* and was wondering which shaft to put in, any other reccomendations??? thanks bj
March 24, 200420 yr if your looking for steel try a PX 5.5 if its graphite your looking for perhaps a Fuji Tourspec HK80 would be a great choice. HK80s are known to be great in FWs. BTW nice buy man your titty bag must be coming along.
March 24, 200420 yr Author lol yeah suppose i have a few tity stuff. im lookin to put graphite in it, dont wanna give any yards away lol. yeah the hk 80 is supposed to be class its slightly lighter than the pro 95 i was askin about... but they are similar shafts. i was thinkin the tourspec 652 i have would be too light for the 970 and too light for fairway wood. if it was u what would u do
March 24, 200420 yr I have always been partial to a Pro 95 in a fairway wood. However, I bought a Miz hot metal that came with a HK80 and it's a very good shaft for a fairway wood.
March 24, 200420 yr Author thanks naylit.....could u plz tell me the difference u felt in the two shafts???? apart from the obvious weight difference. which did u prefer
March 24, 200420 yr I think the HK80 launches a little higher and distance is better with it over the Pro 95. I have always played a heavy fw and driver shaft and the HK80 can handle a hard swing like a Pro 95.
March 26, 200420 yr nothing personal...but i definitely hate the hk80 with a passion...of all the fujis i have played this is the absolute worst....i would rec...the pro95...the triti46....the sapphire......the 757..or anything else ...
March 26, 200420 yr I played the HK-Pro80 in both fairway woods and a 10.5* driver. It worked well in both, really helping the driver produce a flatter trajectory than otherwise possible. But the Pro80 is EXCELLENT in fairway woods. The BEST I've played. Sets up well for hard swinger, fast temp--with a moderately stiff tip. Kiertos, I you think you want a High Kick shaft for your J then you should strongly consider the SKW. It's a little lighter than the HK-Pro80, a litte softer tip that will definitely help you work the open face on the J340. HK in the fairway wood...SKW in the driver.

Definitely agree with Big Driver on this. Especially with the HKpro-80's in FW's. My favorites.
