When will the spending stop!!!

Is the Burner the white headed version 2.0? If so I have one, word of warning though the shafts that are fitted a far to long I have cut mine down by 1 1/2 inches and it is much better and easier to control. They are great clubs by the way and the ball really fires of the face

I've got a TM Burner Superfast (blak headed) driver and was thinking of lopping 1" off the shaft but i'm concerned it'll alter the feel of the thing, and once it's shortened there's no turning back. Did your pro give you any advice on this when he shortened your club?

All he said mate was that the shaft will feel stiffer. He also said that TM are notorious for having extra long shafts in their clubs thats where they get their distance from. Have to be honest now I have had it done I cannot tell much difference in the feel of the shaft it just makes it easier to control. Mine is the 3 wood though don't know how it will effect your Driver.

Scott Gourlay put a 3 wood shaft in an R11s driver, and i hit longer and more consistent, than with a standard length driver shaft. lol try and work that one out.

Consistent I can understand but longer dont know where that comes from, unless you were finding the sweet spot far more often

I believe that the average length of drivers on tour is a lot less that what you buy off the shelf. I will ask Scott what length they use tomorrow.

Be interesting to know, I know they don't use the average off the shelf shafts though, upwards of a grand some of em!!!

Off to St Mellion and decided to get a RBZ 3wood before I went. Seems great on the simulator, lets see what I can do with it on a big course?

You can turn it back, you just put a plug in the butt of the shaft and regrip it.

Hi In-The-Rough,

Just got an email back from Scott,

Std length on Tour is between 44.25 and 44.75 not many guys using longer shafts, but there will be some.

Interesting, makes a mockery out of some of our kit which comes with 45 and 46" shafts, no wonder we smack em into the Trees

The theory reckons that a slightly shorter shaft will be easier to return square to the ball.
You may lose a couple of mph from tyhe swing speed but this will be countered by the better quality strike on the ball. Find the Sweet Spot more often and you'll have longer straighter drives..

Theory's a wonderful thing innit?

Hahaha no i just don't have any kids. I pick them up next week. I went for the black heads, not sure on shafts, i might take my KZG off my Scandiums, or i might get some spinners. I like the weight of the spinner shafts. No sure on total bill, because i don't know what shafts etc. Scott Gourlay is flat out for the next 4-5 days building cooper irons, so i will wait and see.
