Hi Jeff, and thanks for the response. I have a Speeder 757 T/M-25 R-Flex .350 tip Made in Japan pull-out that I’m thinking of installing into a .370 tip 17 degree Adams Super Hybrid. The current weight is 71.6 grams. I can’t find the bend point and torque values anywhere. Any ideas? My swing speed is 80-90 mph. Am I asking for trouble with that shaft in the hybrid head? I’ve got the Fuji Hybrid MAX on order, 65g 4.0 torque just in case it does not work out. Thanks!

Chris,
I really don’t like the idea of a .350″ in a .370″ head. The shaft will play softer than you think as the hosel ID is designed for a larger tip shaft. The ball flight will likely be higher than you want. Sorry, I do not have the specs on this TaylorMade shaft.
Regards,
Jeff

To reshaft a TaylorMade R7 fairway metal is a .335 or .350 tip required?

Jim,
You can use a .350″ shaft or a .335″ shaft with a bushing ferrule.

I need to pull a shaft from an Odyssey 2-Ball long putter with white hot face. Is there anything I need to know or be aware of or is it a pretty standard pull and reshaft?

Just keep the heat directly away from the insert and you’re okay.

I recently acquired a set of Haig Ultra 385 Contour Sole irons (matched serial numbers) with Fluid Feel stamped on them, 2-PW. They currently have the aluminum shafts, R flex. What specs for a modern shaft could I use in them? Seems like s300’s would be REALLY heavy - maybe an SL? They’re in such good condition, I’m thinking about putting them in the bag. Thanks!

Josh,
The lighter shafts are a good idea as these heads will be heavier than today’s heads. Be aware that the hosel size is .320″ and they will have to be drilled to .355″ taper. Do not drill down more than 1 1/4″ as the hosel walls get thin at that point.

Jeff

I am wanting to replace the stock shaft in my TaylorMade R9 SuperTri driver with a Grafalloy ProLaunch Platinum shaft and was wondering if there were any special tipping options or if i can just put the shaft in the sleeve and cut the butt to length?

Trey,
Just put it into the sleeve and go.
