Hey Everyone,

Im re-shafting a 3 wood with a FEMCO combo flex R/S steel shaft.  These are .335 parallel steel shafts and are trim to flex.  

Here is my problem...I cant find trim charts for these anymore.  Does anyone have any clue as to how much I need to trim from the tip to achieve a  S300 ish flex?  

FWIW the steps are as follows...12.5" to the first step and 12 2" steps.  

 

Any help is greatly appreciated.  Im thinking 1 inch from the tip but for some reason i have a feeling they might be 2 inches for a stiff...

Check with Golf Works. They may have old trim charts on their site or if you email them, they may know.

      Day 153: putted for a while using the 2 cups drill inside. Working on bead primarily. Contact was really good.

      Day 8: 12/17/2024 Okay I took my new PPJ swing thought to the range today. I wasn't sure I was quite ready to do so, but I'm glad I did.  When I got it right it was good... really good. When I got it wrong it was a major fail. I hit lots of really ugly ones. But I didn't let that deter me. I stayed committed and focused on the PPJ and I avoided any temptation to go back to what I was doing before just so that I could "look" better at the range. I'm pretty excited about what I saw when I got it right.  I hit the 6 iron mostly (nearly all block work today). I also hit about 6 balls each with the PW, 8I, 5W and Driver. Those had varying degrees of success. I did crack one drive that let me feel and see what the changes will look like once I get fully trained.  Anyway, I'm going to go back to the mirror work for a couple of more days before bringing it back to the range. I do feel like if I can get this right my swing will improve a lot. So I think its worth the effort. I liked the way it looked on GEARs when I get it right, and I like the results I got at the range when I got it right. Now the goal is to work towards getting it right more often.

      Can Somebody Explain to Me Why Lie Angle Balanced Putters Are Important?

      I'm sure you are correct.

      So I think it's that they can't just bend the shaft or hosel to get it to a new lie angle. They adjust that and it changes the weighting, so they have to then adjust all the weights to get it balanced again. I get the impression that it's a bit of an iterative process and they do it all in the US, so they're paying US labor costs to build it and make it work how it's supposed to. Whether you believe in the tech or not, I think that's a true statement.

      Ah, the old EE in the backswing move. Chest going back and staying down doesn't help.
