What did you build today?
KCee What's I've actually found is that FLO'ing a shaft with a less noticeable spine is much more difficult, since the spine itself acts as a somewhat of a stabilizer when trying to find the optimal flex plane.
I notice a lot of times the graphics are oriented by the manufacturer so that the 6-12 plane is the softer CPM plane and the 3-9 plane is the firmer plane. I always figured the 3-9 should be the softer plane. But the shaft industry doesn't seem to agree.
If you care about it, which orientation do you assemble at for the the harder and softer planes?
One thing for sure, shafts have come a long way. It's pretty rare for me to find more than 3 CPM difference around a shaft. I remember when it could be 10. Those were the spiney Type 2 shafts that could be on rails if you got them installed right. Now I feel like you can pretty much just glue and go, graphics up or down. I still like to find the FLO, because I can.
Finished these Tm 790 for a customer. When I ordered the RT75 shafts for this build. This new shaft showed up for me to demo.
Reshafted a buddy's set of Wishon 771CSI irons from TTLite XL steel to Wishon S2S White graphite.

I'm waiting and waiting on Hireko for some high loft fairway heads. Man, why don't they just raise their shipping to 9.99 and use a regular service that doesn't go by camel? I know, wrong thread.
Edit: 6 minutes after I wrote that, the package came. It pays to complain!
Can't wait to assemble and play this guy! Thanks @LogicalOne !!
I appreciate the support, thank you!
And for the record everyone, Steve paid more than $12 shipped.
I donβt believe it!
