3 wood shaft for rbz?

murph9095 · February 12, 2012

awesome topic, join the party

I am thinking about getting the taylormade rbz 3 wood. I like the club and it swings nicely. I own a taylormade r11 with a miyazaki tour kusala black shaft. Do you think it would help if I were to put that miyazaki shaft in the rbz 3 wood? I do not want to spend 150 dollars on a 3 wood fitting to see how much it helps. THANKS!

I will try a Speeder VC 8.1 first... then go old school with an 857ProTi if the VC does not work.

Tip on the standard is a.350, I am guessing that the tour will be .335..haven't seen it 'live' yet...so couldn't measure.

Here's an entertaining read of a bloggers vist to the Kingdom for a fitting with the 3W.

The blogger was fitted with a Fubuki Alpha.

I tried the stock Matrix with the RBZ and it would balloon and spin too much. The head was a bomber though. With a lower spinning shaft, it would be a monster for me.

The Matrix is good. Just depends on how much spin you put on the ball.

Why would you order a TP (only difference is the upgrade shaft) and then put in a different shaft? I like Phil's stuff - great shafts - but why get the TP if you were going to do that?

I am thinking about trying a Code 6 that I have laying around from a driver. Its a mid launch mid spin shaft that has a serious kick but you get the combination of keeping the overall static weight down by having a sub 70g shaft with something that has a low balance point so will add a bit of swingweight for feel. Any thoughts?
