Here’s a question for the shaft experts & club techies out there.

I’m thinking of replacing my TM Tour Burner driver with an M2 – 2016 version, 9 ½°. The M2’s I’ve seen seem to have the Fujikura shaft  which I’m guessing was one of stock shafts offered at the time the club was new. My current driver, an 11, soon to be 12 year old TM Tour Burner, has the Diamana shaft epoxied into the hosel. I don’t know if that’s the “high-end” Diamana or not. Both shafts are stiff flex.

My question is, would it make sense to remove the Diamana from my current driver, put a new tip on and then replace the Fuji shaft?  I was told by my club fitter that the frequency of the Diamana matches my swing speed perfectly. (Not sure what “frequency” means exactly – I thought stiff was stiff.) Was/is the Fujikara considered equivalent to the Diamana? Yes, I know I would need to compare driver performance – the M2 with the Fuji vs. the Tour Burner with the Diamana but once I put the tip on the Diamana it renders the Tour Burner driver head to the garbage so I thought I’d pose the question before moving on the M2.

Never mind. I answered my own question. The answer is NO because the tip diameters are different.

Tour Burner/Diamana - .350"

M2/Fujukura - .335"
