Callaway Octane Tour shaft

[mymizunosrock]

Hey peoples,

I recently demoed an Octane Tour driver with PX5.5 shaft. I loved it so much, I found one pre loved and bought it on impulse. The advertisement just said stiff, but when I got it, it was a PX6.0. My swing is strong enough for it, but I just dont like the feel. My MP600 driver has a much better feel with the Rayon Javln shaft, but Im unsure of what is causing the poor feel, the shaft or the multi compound head. When I flushed the MP, you knew it. It felt like an airswing. With this driver, you feel every shot with your hands. Even the good ones. I also think with a better shaft, this driver has a lot more to offer. Am I wasting my time puring this shaft?? What are other peoples experiences with a custom fitted shaft with this driver. Did it improve the feel and performance. Cheers

Shaft might be a tad too stiff since you said you loved it with the 5.5. You could try to swap the javln into the callaway or sell the px 6.0 and buy the 5.5.

The 5.5 didn't really feel that much different, not at impact anyway. A shade softer, yeah, but same feed back. My dispersion with the driver is good now. Maybe the feed back just something I'll have to get used to and maybe spining will help, but I just dont like stock shafts in drivers. The Rayon worked well in the MP600. Swapping could be an option I guess, but I may look at selling the MP600 and really dont want to be pulling and replacing the shafts too much. Thanks for the reply..
