R9 TP Shaft

[OSUBuckeyes]

I need help choosing a shaft for my 9.5 R9 TP (420cc version). I am currently playing a 10.5 R9 non-TP with the stock Motore 65. My ball flight is high and on windy days the ball balloons on me. I was looking at the Voodoo series but I didn't know which one will work. I do not have access to a launch monitor with the TP shafts. My current ss is 95 and I'm still growing so I would like to get a stiff. I DON'T know my launch angle and my spin is about 3900rpm. I would like a more penetrating ballflight with more roll out. Thanks

Any feedback on the TP shafts

I've heard the tip on the F1 is much stouter than the regular Motore 65.

But since your are getting a new driver, why not just get fitted? The extra $$ will be worth it in the long run, unless you are a driver ho.

I decided to go with the SNV6 Voodoo because it has slightly less spin than the Regular Voodoo. I haven't been able to hit any TP shaft besides the Motore F1 and it felt very boardy. My local Golf Galaxy doesn't sell TP clubs which is a surprise. Even if this shaft doesn't work I can just sell it on eBay and put the Motore 65 in my 9.5 head.

That spin is pretty high and the R9 head is a lower spinning head. If you are ballooning shots I'm sure the 10.5 and the stock shaft isn't helping.

First try putting 2 8's in the front and the 1 gram in the back, that should lower ballflight.

As for shafts the Motore F1, Fubuki, HD6, or Voodoo NV will all lower your spin.

I'm not a fuji fan and also think the F1 is boardy, but I have played the Fubuki 73S and the HD6S both would definately take some spin off the ball.

Maybe you should try a HD6 Stiff or the Fubu 63S, neither of those shafts will be thought of as boardy and both will lower spin.

Definitely Fubuki!

Call Larry Taylor, the local TaylorMade Rep and he will tell you where his next demo day will be and you can get fitted on his FlightScope launch monitor. Get his number from your local pro.

Don't buy anything until you have been fitted [u]outdoors[/u] on a launch monitor and actually see your ball flight.
