re-shafting with TT Dynamic Gold SL shafts


Bulldogdoc

Recommended Posts

what length to start with?
I would like to re-shaft some titleist irons with dynamic gold SL taper tip shafts. What raw length shaft would you put in the PW? Would it be 37.5 inches? I've tried 37 inches and the swing weight seems to come out too light. Any comments from you more experienced club builders would be much appreciated.

8I 37.50"

9I 37.00"

PW 37.00"

 

These are the standard raw lengths for the corresponding irons for dynamic gold and dg sl. A 37.5 in your pw would be softstepped once and would be a tad lighter once butt trimmed since taper tips dg's are a constant weight.

Those lengths are absolutely correct. The swingweight should be the same as std DG, you do not have to add head weight or lengthen DG SL to get std sw.

TTS..this has always been a question I've had but hadn't really gotten around to asking.

 

I've always been curious as to why TT specs the 37" shaft for the PW and the 9 iron for DG tapers. In the 1/2" increment scenario, it would seem consistent to have the first step be correspondingly farther away from the heel, since the 9 iron would be 5 to 7 grams heavier, assuming some sort of design philosophy that relates flex to the distance between the heel and the first step of the shaft.

 

I suppose I could see where it would probably work out fine for the more modern 1/4" increment between the PW and 9 (vis a vis Mizuno), but still I've never quite understood the rationale.

 

Can you shed any light on this for us?
