Posted April 13, 200420 yr I just scored a 22* 4fw with a steel shaft and was wondering what the different playing characteristics are between this club in steel vs graphite. I am assuming that since its steel its must be a .355 hosel. What options does this leave me if I want to switch to graphite? Also I was wondering what the going rate is of these things, I AM NOT SELLING!! , but was wondering if I overpayed. Thanks!! Bill
April 13, 200420 yr First the hosel is .370 not .355 for the NON-TP model. I just reshafted my 19* with a tipped S300 and the end result is excellent. The weaker stock shaft and the tungsten weight packet in the hosel are combos for hooking. The shaft change and removing the weight really works!
April 14, 200420 yr Author The club I have is tour issue not the retail version, and that why I am assuming that its a .355 shaft since its steel vs .335 if it was graphite. Mine just came from ebay.....It was up for 3 days with only 3 bidders, The 1st 2 never even met the reserve.....which was $70.00!!! Needless to say there was then a fluery of emails from me to the seller and BINGO!!! I did have to pay a bit for shipping though!!!
April 16, 200420 yr Yeah the Tour version is .355 tip you should consider th Adlida NV hybirds in them which are .355 tip, also the UST irods you could always use a .335 shaft and shim it if you like many players on tour are using the NV hybirds, probaly the most prefered graphite shaft for hybirds also you could try using a lightweight steel shaft such as the TX-90, TX-90 Tour, NS pro 85,95,105, Dynamic gold lite, Rifle, Rifle lite there are so many options to choose from just make sure you make the right choice, Alex, Hope this helps
