i recenty bought a new ft-3 fusion driver and i was wondering if i should put the same shaft in the fusion as i had in my old driver (cleveland launcher 330). i dont know if the same shaft would perform different with the larger clubhead.

Shafts perform differently in different clubheads. Not so much that you always have to switch, but if it was borderline before, it may. Particularly if you're switching from a bore-through to a non-bore-through, for example.

That doesn't answer your question, but it starts to...

Shafts perform differently in different clubheads

no doubt. I've done a lot of shaft experiments with my 510TP head and results were sometimes unexpected... i.e. - I liked the Pro Force V2 with the Titleist 905R. Once installed with 510TP head - I couldn't get it to work - the 'tip stiff' feature came out big time - all I could do was a weak fade / slice with it

If you have a easy access to clubmaker or you do it yourself - worth experimenting, but otherwise... be careful.

Shafts are one of those adjustments that if you could ever find a way to "try out" a bunch of different shafts on the same head we would all be amazed.

I have a dream...someday...when the world is better...we will be able to try out shafts like trying on clothes. You know...like the pros do now.

    • Par is just a guideline, a reference for a hole or a course. At the end of the tournament the player that took less strokes to hole out is the winner, no matter how much it is against the Par of the course.  35 under par is not desirable? then change a few holes par.. make all reachable par 5's as par 4's.  Every hole below 350 is a par 3.. This will make those 7200 courses play "harder" with a par of 66..67.  (Ridiculous, let's just appreciate the amazing game this players have).
    • Didn't Mike Souchak (and possibly others as I'm just going by memory, but I'm pretty sure Souchak was first) shoot a 257 years ago?  It wasn't on a par 73, so it wasn't 35 under, but still.

    • Sounds like you're trying to prune gorse.  Seems as if gorse can actually throw its needles at anyone nearby!
    • BTW - The bush was ugly.  Anyway, in an attempt to add some clarity the ball was under some of the branches of the bush. But the bush was shaped in such a way where a left handed player could have played the shot without hitting any of the branches. A right handed player would have no chance. Thus my buddy/opponent I think was "reasonable" in addressing the ball with a flipped over 7 iron as he could have hit it lefty. .... There was, however, no guarantee that he would get good results as I've actually never seen him try to hit a ball in that manor in all the years I've played with him.
