M2 Fairway wood REAX 65 shaft?

[wgmoney]

Just looking for info on the Taylormade REAX 65, stock shaft for M2 fairway wood. Spin, launch and feel? Thanks

Bump. Also wondering about the specs. Does anyone have info on torque, tip stiffness etcetera? Thanks

TMAG said its made by Fujikura & promotes mid/high launch & mid spin

 

If you have a quick tempo you'll likely need to reshaft it.

 

Feel is good but I had a two-way miss with it

 

Reshafted with a Diamana Thump & it's very consistent now

What is the weight of the stock M2 REAX 65 fairway shaft? 65 grams? Not on the TM website.,

65g

3.8 Torque

Really liked the Adlila Tour Blue in the driver and the Tour Green was even better spin. Given this since I didn't like the feel of the REAX in the fairway I'm wondering if tour blue in the fairwaywood is the way to go. Obviously you can't try it since it's a glued head. The fitter said the REAX was "made" for the M2 fairway and while I did get good numbers with it I didn't like the feel one bit. But he insisted :) Should I consider ordering the Tour blue instead in the fairway? It's mid launch mid spin so should work.

 

The only thing is Taylormade only has Tour blue 65 (which weighs 69 grams) available as an option and not the 75 so if I go Tour Green 65 Stiff (67 grams) in the driver that would be really close to the fairwaywood weight... A problem? I mean the standard shaft is 65 grams but you obviously has to take the balance Point/swing weight into account here.

 

Any input greatly appreciated.

Just picked up a M2 Fairway. To tell you the truth, not a big fan of the stock shaft. I find it laggy and can't draw the thing to save my life. I'm thinking of pulling the shaft from my 915, a Rogue 70 Black and trying it the M2. I also didn't like Fujikura Pro 60 in my M1 Driver. Pop in a Pro-force V5 and I'm loving it :D

The REAX is "made for" the huge sector of the market that is the average joe who struggles to turn over or elevate their fairway woods. I'm sure it's a fine shaft for a majority of average golfers who just want to pick up a wood off the floor and buy it, but that's not necessarily you. The Tour Blue 75 is offered as a no upcharge custom option in their custom shafts list, you should certainly be able to order one if that's the shaft you like. If the store you typically purchase from won't order it for you, find somewhere else that will.

Thanks. The problem is, when I look at Taylormade's custom shaft list I only see the Tour Blue 65! http://demandware.edgesuite.net/aais_prd/on/demandware.static/-/Sites-TMaG-EU-Library/en_GB/v1459851610039/images/customs/FW15CustomShaftandGripOptions_091015_EMEA.pdf

If you go in TM's website, go to the M2 FW & click "customize" the Tour Blue 75 is available & there's no extra cost

 

About 30+ shafts that are no upcharge

I guess it's a US vs Europe thing then because on the EU site, it's not an option, only the 65.... :( And unfortunately Sweden is still in Europe :(
