If you are afraid of a high ball flight, try the Aldila NV (green one), the V2 (more of a mid flight), or the ProLaunch/ ProLaunch Red. All of these are lower low flight shafts that can be had for under $80.

With the thru-bore that Titleist does, you may find a problem with taking the VS out and putting it in the FT-iQ. The tip diameters could be different as well. (The VS for drivers has a tip of .335" I think. Not sure about the Bassara.)

I would suggest having a pro/Golfsmith guy pull and install the shafts for you if you have it done. A shaft puller is about $70, heat gun is $20, and all other materials will probably cost about $10. You'd be looking at about $100 for a shaft pull if you do it yourself.

In my Ogio Ozone Bag:
TM Superquad 9.5* UST Proforce 77g Stiff
15* Sonartec SS-2.5 (Pershing stiff)
19* TM Burner (stock stiff)
4-U - PING i10 White dot, +1.25 inches, ZZ65 stiff shafts55*/11* Snake Eyes Form Forged (DGS300)60*/12* Snake Eyes Form Forged (DGS300)Ping i10 1/2 MoonTitleist ProV1

Yeah, im wicked retarded. The shaft is a Fubuki, not a bassarra. So even more reason to want to keep that shaft.

Well the fubuki is a hihg launch low spin shaft so far as i know.. so thats not exactly great. I also know alot of guys that simply wont buy it just because its a stock shaft and not a "real" one


Worth a shot to sell it however.

i've never been much of a " gear head " myself. so i could care less if its a " made for " shaft, or if its the real deal as long as it works for me. but yeah, i know some guys that do the same thing. they wont even consider a " made for " shaft.

Contact Callaway and ask them what they would be willing to do for a reshaft. Otherwise, if the club is in great shape, you can easily sell it for more than your Dad paid for it, and buy one with the shaft you want.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By WillieT · Posted

      Day 33 (13 Dec 25) - Worked on weight shift and resetting the left heel during downswing (after listening to a discussion on Golf School this morning on PGA Tour Radio).  It centered on how Jack Nicklaus lifted his lead heel and how long driver champs do as well.  Taking cues from that discussion, worked an exaggerated feel of the left heel working doing some swing drill in the backyard using the 7i.  Wrapped up the session by hitting a few low bump and run shots in the backyard - keeping the process slow and exaggerated.

      Dr. Raymond Prior and Block vs. Random Practice (The Spin Axis Podcast)

      By iacas · Posted

      It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…
