SHADY Posted April 29, 2004 Report Share Posted April 29, 2004 Does anyone have in pros or cons about the Fujikura Tour Release 27.3? I see that the price is very reasonable, but how does it perform? I looking to put one in Gemini 355. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SHADY Posted April 29, 2004 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2004 What's the best way to install this shaft? My swing speed with a driver is around 110, and I have a smooth tempo. How much do I need to trim from the tip if any? I know I'll need a stiff flex, but not quite sure how much preping I need to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lidolegend Posted April 29, 2004 Report Share Posted April 29, 2004 The 27.3 is my favorite Fuji, best shaft I've ever played. Very smooth and quite stable through the ball. I have one in a 395cc Gemini - great shaft - great combo! Good luck! -Ted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bushkin Posted April 30, 2004 Report Share Posted April 30, 2004 hey, this shaft isnt even close to what is in your current bag---your all up in the heavy stuff and you want to go south ?? only if your in the wrong setup now -- go see a lunch monitor or a good clubfitter--( lunch at least fills you up so you wont be hungry at the turn) thanks and good luck bushkin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowpro Posted May 2, 2004 Report Share Posted May 2, 2004 it's a very solid shaft and works well for smooth transition swings.. with a 110 swing speed use a x flex-- don't worry it will not be too stiff. the shaft has a softer tip section and the stiff would probably make oyu have a little control issue.. put a stiff tipped half inch into a 395cc 10.5 gemini and fine with a controlled swing BUT if i get a little quick -- she goes left in a hurry** close to your swing speed.. ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rgk5 Posted May 22, 2004 Report Share Posted May 22, 2004 I have an "X" flex installed in a ZT Maxima and it is the best driver shaft I have ever used. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pharmd Posted May 31, 2004 Report Share Posted May 31, 2004 Have both S & X flex in pair of TM Tour 580's at 45 1/4in. Can't really tell that much of a difference in actual flex when using on course(neither tipped). Very smooth w mid-kick & tighter dispersion than Aldila NV-75 . One area that you should be aware of- shaft balance is tip heavy and will add 2-3 swing weights to your club very easily (D-6, D-7 on mine) , but I like heavy sw's on drivers. Used to play a GD YS-6 (sx) and would loose left very easily- These Tour Releases feel like YS-6 but go straighter :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
