I have one in my main driver but cannot afford on in the backup.

What comes close out there ?

I am very sorry to say AK that I don't know what a poor man 660 would be .

Could barely afford the real thing in the first place . :!:

Oh I know there is no substitue for the 660 - god forbid.

So I am looking for a shaft that has the following characteristics:

Weight 72-75 grams

Torque 3.2 to 3.5

Flex Mid-High

How about the Vista Tour 70 , or even the Vista Pro 70 ??

Or how about a Tour Release 36.6 . Yes it is 3.0 torque and weight in at 67 grams but it might work for you with the proper tipping .

Or even one of the other Tour Release's .??

Correct. The 27.3 should fit the bill.

haribo

I have never hit the 660, but the tour release is a very weak shaft. I would expect them to be very different.

That is why I said with the proper tipping . As you may have noticed I have a 660 in my driver . It is tipped 3/4" . The Tour Release in my 13* is tipped 1" and the one in my 17* is tipped 1 1/2" .

So with the proper tipping it will work for you :)

Thanks - I have two friends that tried the release shafts and neither like them in a driver, I hit them and also thought that they were soft for flex. Tipping could change that

I think the Accuflex Icon v.2 fits that bill. Great shaft, but it will run you $90 just for the shaft.

About tipping, I've not much experience esp. Fuji which the official site don't recommend. What's the reason behind for not tipping? :roll: :?:

Vista Tour 70 maybe, but there is no poor man's 660, Looked for one for my back up also. Got a 553 coming instead? :P

The closest shaft I've found to the 660TR in the value range is the Harmon CBX. It's a great shaft for the price, and very underrated. I received it in a 580 Tour so I don't know if the tour version is different from the retail. Just for reference, I've got the 660TR, 660TR Blue Streak, 693HK, 671TB, and 761TE all shafted in various tour heads, and my 580 Tour CBX combination is equal in feel and distance to the other combinations.
