Posted August 7, 200420 yr Anyone know how much you need to tip a Fujikura SIX regular shaft to get it to play at or just below a stiff (firm flex)? One shaft will be going in a 510TP and one will be going in a 300 series 3-wood, but I'd like them to play to the same flex.
August 13, 200420 yr driver tip half inch and 3wd tip one inch... should allow for the same feeling in both clubs...
August 17, 200420 yr Author So is it safe to assume tipping 1 inch on the driver and 1.5 inches on the 3-wood would take it to a stiff flex? I've been told that in a 510TP, you would need to tip the shaft more than normal to get an accurate flex. Is that true? Also, would tipping this shaft so much affect the launch that I get? Thanks in advance!!
August 18, 200420 yr you could tip it one inch for the driver-- since the taylor hosel depth is not that deep- to insure a firm flex.. and yes you can tip a shaft too much as to effect feel and playability.. no more than 2'' on the SIX.. you might has well jump up to stiff flex if you need to tip it that much...
