just got my new v2 but have a question

[krs1pitt]

orientation of graphics

so i get back from golfworks to see that the v2 i had placed in my r7 has the information about the shaft (flex, torque, etc.) facing me at address and the normal graphics are facing the ground. is this how v2's are installed, i feel like i saw another v2 in somebody's club that had it the same way and just wanted to make sure that i had the proper install. thanks.

I think the club fitter has the option of installing the shaft with the specs facing at you or the other way. It depends on your preference.

hmmm, wish they could've brought that question to me. i saw a new titliest driver in the store with the shaft set up that way as well so i guess it's no big deal. but since i am a fan of the graphics, i guess i'll just make the excuse that i don't want it to 'distract' me.

the shaft is round, you can have it installed w/ the graphics facing any direction you'd like. as for me... i have the larger Proforce V2 graphics facing down and the smaller spec graphics facing up at address. it's all preference (unless it's spined or pured).

The V2 isn't exactly a pretty shaft & you are upset about the looks? The only shafts that are harder to look at are the pink bimatrix & the MCC Kj Choi orange lightsaber. The V2 is a good shaft any way you install it.

My V2 was installed with the specs up also..but that's where the spine on mine is.

My 905R came factory with the V2 graphics facing down, and specs facing me. I believe that is just how they produce them and install them as stock offerings.

All V2's that come stock from titleist in their woods or drivers come specs up. my 3wd has a V2 sst pured so that is why my V2 graphic is facing up on it. i don really find it distracting bc you are suppossed to be concentrating when your hitting a golf shot not worrying about the shaft.

EVERY TIME I get a club reshafted I specifically ask for the graphics to be pointed down. Goose, c'mon. I'd bet 90% of the people on here , not counting those who get their shafts spine-aligned, prefer to have the graphics down.

I had a V2 installed in a Callaway X 3 wood with the graphics to the side, so when you're looking down you don't see very much at all of the V2 graphics or the specs.

I've spined 3 V2's and they all orient with the graphics down and the specs up. This surprised me as the V2 shafts in the 905R's from the factory are all also oriented in the same way. Very rare in factory clubs.

All the OEM drivers I got had the shafts installed logo down. With the exception of the Accra 75 which was spined so it was installed logo up.

 

Whenever I reshaft a driver I am usually asked which way I want the logo.

MIne is specs up because of the spine. It works great. Cleveland Grip matches the color scheme as well.

I'd much much much prefer it if there was an option to have no graphics whatsoever as at times I can find them a distraction. What purpose do they serve other than as advertising for a product YOU had to pay a squillion bucks for in the first place?

[krs1pitt]

thanks for all the help guys, one other question i had was with the specs being slightly off center to the right. i didn't have the shaft pured but is it a possibility that that's the best setup. being this is my first custom shaft upgrade i just don't know the common practice, thanks.

Mine in my X-Speed was spined and actually faces the side also... So I don't see hardly any graphics either. But I'd say however the graphics face, it's a great shaft :yahoo:

The Grafalloy Prolaunch had the graphics facing down on my FT-3 when I bought it retail. The clubfitter I use always installs the shaft with the logo facing down or away from me when I get clubs reshafted. I never asked about it I just thought it was standard procedure.
