anyone know about how to go getting a shaft for the new R9?

currently have the Fubuki that comes stock with the TP version, but im not too crazy about it.

question is can i go with a normal shaft and get the threading done for the adjustable head? or is that a "go through taylormade" thing?

in my TMX T2 Bag

I'd guess your local shop has to order it for you, from TM, but I'm not 100% sure about that. Maybe ebay will have some that already have the fitting?

Maybe check one of these out.

Matrix XCon 5 --> "Very stable, low bend point. 55g ish weight. Higher flight with mid spin quality."
Mitsubishi Fubuki (63g & 73g) --> "Mid-low bend point, stable shaft. Mid to high flight with lowish spin quality."
Fujikura Motore F1 (65g, 75g, 85g) --> "Designed for stronger players, generally with a mid-bendpoint and stable tip section. Mid ball glight, lwoish spin quality. NOTE: the 75g version flies higher than the 65g and 85g versions!."
Aldila Voodoo VS6 --> "Stable shaft, mid-high bend bend point. Medium to low ball flight with lowish spin, but a little more spin than Motore 65g."
Aldila Voodoo NV6 --> "Stable, mid-high bend point. Medium to low ball flight with lower spin."
Matrix HD-6 --> Stiffer tip, medium-high bend point. NOT a medium high flight, as TaylorMade says. Low spin, mid-low launch similar to VS-6 or NV-6 but lower spin overall."

"All TP shafts have a no upcharge, EXCEPT HD-6 ($150-$200)".

    • Day 47: simulator day! Played St. Andrew’s and shot a +1. Not bad, especially with having to putt at this simulator set up. Had about 5 minutes at the end to work on some feels as well. 
    • I think you're saying it's preposterous to think that the areas on this club are anything like what's shown here: 30mm toward the toe or heel loses only 5% distance? Highly, highly doubtful. So a guy who hits the ball there and normally hits the ball about 250… will hit it instead about 238. By missing the sweet spot by about 1.2 inches? Highly, highly doubtful. Heck, the high heel barely gets into the red, and orange is only "up to" 10%! @M2R, I've never heard of "Ask Golf Nut" but I'm dubious of his claims in the video and really, really dubious of what's on his site: "Why AskGolfNut Is the Most Trusted Data-Driven Golf Resource". Hmmmmmm.
    • Day 151 1-11 flow work today. I've been doing all pause work, so Inwanted to get some rhythm going. Recorded.
    • a) No b) This MLR says: I doubt the MLR is going to affect their weekly league games, in other words.
    • So the question was posed today by some of my friends.  Is a pitch mark the same as a divot?  I thought NO, but they argued if your ball lands in another player's divot (made by club during a swing) this was the same as a pitch mark, i.e. the ball mark made when the ball lands
