"Burner Superfast 85" Shafts

AZGolfNut2 · October 5, 2009

I have a customer who is looking to re-shaft his irons, and he wants something that is equivalent to the Superfast 85 shafts that were on a set of '09 Burners that he hit. Does anyone know where I can find detailed specs on that shaft? I found the weight and tip size on TM's website, but they don't list the kickpoint or trajectory. He is concerned about getting one with the same kickpoint because he really liked the feel and trajectory of that shaft. Does anyone know if this is a re-branded OEM shaft, such as the TT GS75 or GS95, or is it a proprietary TM shaft?

Here's another one I found by Apollo that is similar: http://www.hirekogolf.com/hireko/orderport.../1219/0/0/0/0/0

Is it safe to assume that all shafts in that weight category (sub-100g) are going to have a high trajectory?

It is a proprietary TM shaft made by True temper it is a tweaked version of the T 90 which has been in the Taylormade range for quite a few years. It is a multi-step shaft with a high launch. I think it may have been related to the now discontinued True Temper TX 90. The new GS 95 or the Nippon NS 850 might be suitable alternatives.

Finally most sub 100g shafts do have high launch (some are classed a mid but still give mid high launch e.g. Nippon NS 950). A few graphite’s have lower launch such as the Grafalloy prolaunch red.
