Right now i have a TM r7 460 with the re*ax shaft, and i was wondering if i just ordered a proforce v2 shaft from golfsmiths website, and i get it in the mail can i just take it to golf galaxy and pay them to put it on, or do i have to go through some special process. Also, i was wondering if i could just put steel iron shafts in my hybrids. thanks

Why not just order it thru Golf Galexy??? They own Golfworks and Golfworks is cheaper than Golfsmith...plus you'd be paying shipping!

just make sure the shaft you order has the same tip diameter as the hosel of your shaft... i got ****ed by that today because my pink aldila nv came in today and it was .335 and my tm r5 dual's hosel diameter is .350 so I had to reorder another nv for .350 (and it's not pink =/)

i had no idea about this before, also the guy that is putting this together for me says that i should've ordered a shaft "pured" which had something to do with less wobbling, i have no idea..(but yeah so the second one i ordered was pured)

Why not just re-shaft it either at GolfGalaxy or GolfSmith? There's chance you might be getting the wrong shaft tip diameter.

OMG! Whogave you this information???

The guy knows nothing! Granted, you should have got the .350....but your clubmaker should have had shims to fit the .335 into the .350 head...it's a common daily practice... Secondly, any competent clubmaker can "pure" of spine align, the shaft for you themselves...and not charged you. If this guy doesn't know these really basic principles of clubmaking, I would really recommend you look elsewhere...he just cost you a lot of money you should never have paid...and I'm guessing his quality of work will be pretty poor.

Exactly!

Ok, I'm getting a little picky here but PUREING is a process done by an

SST PURE licensee, which not just anybody can do. However Flat Line Oscilation (FLO) can be done by any competant clubmaker.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Still working on the backswing a bit. Hand still gets away from the body, out towards the ball, and at A2 the club wants to roll over and get flat at A3. It's just very difficult to shallow from that position like I want. Which makes my downswing work impossible.  Backswing I have been playing around with the left leg straightening to start the backswing. It's like, a slight shove of the hips right with the left leg. Then just keep the flex in the right knee as I turn into it. I kind of like it. I never had a good swing trigger. It helps keep my left knee extended.  Yea, definitely feeling the hand path is traveling down the feet line, and straight up. A little bit of wrist rotation, and a lot more hinge sooner in the right wrist and elbow. I am trying to get the feeling that the arm hinging up then is the cause for the right shoulder to retract to finish the backswing. Club feels much more vertical at A3. I am trying to have my wrist fully hinged by then.  Feel the club and arms stop at A3.5 (my A4). If my arm collapses late, then I turn into that and I am pretty much screwed. The club and arms kind of have a floaty feeling, where they are just suspended in air for a bit, then drop.  Downswing I have been trying to think of a good visual for this mentally. I like the idea of my hands taking a wide arc to my right pocket, or I am taking the back of the hosel and trying to hit the ground behind my right foot.    Left knee stuff, just sooner.

      Day 2 (10 Mar 26) - Worked on weight shift feel using slap stick drill (hands about 6” apart - coming back weight on trail foot - down - thru weight on lead foot….moved it to hitting chips w/9i playing what I call “leap frog” - hit 1st about 10yds, the next a couple past the 1st, for about 6 balls total.  Love it as the lies change, the distances vary making each swing slightly different.
