Thanks - Makes sense based on my tests yesterday, better shafts for me were in the 68-70 range, didn't try anything over 70 but I'll check it out. The only one lower than that which loaded/felt ok was the speeder 652, at 66. The stock FT Tour Fuji 360 was probably the best for my numbers and I'll definetly check out a 10.5. __________________ "Support the On Plane Swinging Force in Balance" "we have no friends, we have no enemies, we have only teachers" Simplicity buffs, see 5-0, 1-L, 2-0 A and B 10-2-B, 4-D, 6B-1D, 6-B-3-0-1, 6-C-1, 6-E-2 EdZ View Public Profile Send a private message to EdZ Find all posts by EdZ
