an909 Posted April 28, 2004 Report Share Posted April 28, 2004 I have a retail 3FW Rescue Mid TP with a S400 shaft (approx. 132 grams). I understand that the TP series of Rescue Mids accept a .355 tip shaft, but how would installing an Aldila NV 105S Hybrid shaft affect the swingweight and playability, especially if I maintain the current length of the club?

pgdean Posted April 28, 2004 Report Share Posted April 28, 2004 I put a NV 105 Hybrid shaft (0.355 tip) in my 16* TP last night and am anxious to hit it. I added a 4 gram tip weight. The club came out right at D2 at 41" (longer than the standard steel length). The head was 219 grams. I am looking forward to see how it plays.

Lowpro Posted April 29, 2004 Report Share Posted April 29, 2004 you'll probably have to add a 4-5gram tip weight to get to a d-2,3 sw but besides that it should work out fine.. put the 85 gram hybrid in a friends and he has never been happier. actually hit it further and better control than with the rifle shaft that was it.. main thing is that he got a little higher ball flight.. ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bushkin Posted April 30, 2004 Report Share Posted April 30, 2004 pull the plug-- the white plug out of the bottom of the hosel--heat the head at the toe really hot and add some hot melt (4-5 grams) to the toe keeping the head standing on its toe while it cools--HELLLLLLLOOOOOO---NOW WE HAVE TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP WITHOUT THE .335 OR .350------------------------GO FIGURE -a head that wont hook and a price thats................priceless--bush Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
an909 Posted April 30, 2004 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2004 Thanks for everyone's advise. I feel more comfortable with the decision to reshaft with the NV now. Bushkin, I'm definitely gonna try your suggestion on a retail Mid that I have. Your comments are always priceless and have the added benefit of being dead-on.
