Im interested as well in 95 and 105, regular flex to compete with steel fibers and recoils. I really liked the profile of this shaft but the 85g was too stiff and light.
I’ve already bent the TE 9i to 44* and the pw to 49* which I really like because it reduces the offset. I like the pw so much that I’m considering bending the GW 3 degrees weak to 54* to replace...
I read that the TE is getting updated with the TE+, but not sure when.
I play the TE forged in 5-GW and FDI in 4i. The 4i in TE is not forgiving enough for me.
I have the TE forged irons, which are great but my only complaint is there’s too much offset in the 9-pw because the offset is not progressive through the set. I’m considering bending the whole set...
Britt, do you have specs on the TS3 you can share. Lofts, head length, bounce and offset? How does the TS3 compare to the TE? Thanks!
With the TE forged having a shorter hosel length than most OEMs, does that effect shaft flex at all? I ask because I have a set of TE with kbs tour-v Reg and I’m testing the same shaft in a Bridgestone...
I’ll throw out an idea since I have the same dilemma, curious to get Britts thoughts. Put a cork inserted half way down the shaft, then add your weight with tungsten powder, then another cork on top...
I noticed I play better with wood shafts that have a smaller diameter (measured at a constant point on the shaft, ie 18” down from the butt end). For example, Aldila NV and Fuji Ventus is smaller diameter...
I play irons at 1” and can drill out weight from hosels in order to bring down swing weight. I have the golfworks reaming boring vice to hold the head secure. However I don’t have a drill press...
I had the same issue with my irons using the same epoxy. It only happens with steel shafts, I built some graphites with no issues. I used beads on the steel but not the graphite. Maybe I’ll reassemble...
@Woody what is meant by sheer point? Can you elaborate?
Hi Britt, after much testing I found iron shafts that work well for me , Aldila NV 95-stiff. My only complaint is that they feel a bit light in the wedges due to the decending weights. I had an idea...
The TS3 has me very interested. Would you say it’s a replacement of the PTMs? Can you elaborate on the differences. I’m a huge fan of ptm. It looks great at address, super forgiving and nice forged...
I’ve done it and the weight does come out easily with a heat gun. Put a wood screw in the hole to pull it out with pliers. The weight will not fit inside the extension I’ve used a bolt.
