Accra T70 or Accra Tour HF for 3 Wood

bslosh · March 27, 2006

Can anyone compare these two shafts?

I've got the Accra T70 in my 9* G5 and this club is rock solid and deep. I'm thinking about a new 3 wood and would like to reshaft the club with either the T70 or Tour HF. Has anyone played either of these shafts and can you comment on ball flight, feel, etc? The woods I'm looking at are: Cleveland Launcher Steel, TM R7 steel and the Bridgestone J33.

hmmm...it really depends on how much help you need on getting the ball up in the air...the tour hf launches it higher faster as opposed to the t-70 that creates a flatter and more boring ball flight...i'd use the t-70 in both the cleveland and the r7 steel that you mentioned but use the hf in the bridgestone since it has a deeper bore...

If you want a high, long, soft landing fairway wood, go with the HF, its an awesome shaft ! There is nothing around that feels quite as good.

I would also, check the info given above, I not sure, but I don't think the bore depth is more on the

J33, I believe it just has a higher BBGM measurement than the other 2.

(not positive, so check into it)

Any other Accra lovers out there who can compare the T70 with the Tour HF?

I heard the HF is a stout fairway wood , a little more demanding than stuffs like Irod... is that true?

I have not hit the HF but have the T70 in my threewood. It has been in the bag longer than any other club by far. Mid ballflight with alot of distance. Dispersion is good and tight and it can be worked as needed. I will not be substituting this club anytime soon. It is a confidence builder!

Thanks bg1. What head do you have attached to your T70?

The HF has a tight butt. If a tipped HF works for you flexwise, I'd go that way. They do feel stiffer due to lower torque and the aforementioned tight butt. For a FW wood though, I personally like SC75.

V2 75 works out great for me on a 3 woods though, a great blend of control and distance. i think v2 75 is very close to a SC75.

The UST is a definite play on the SC75 but I will say the SC75 torques lower and feels much smoother in side by side testing with a touch more tightness and stability. V2 was good though...can't fault it at all at that price.
