ShopTalk: Residual Bend N plane - Steel Shafts

2003-10-11 Thread golf54com
Hi Dave Without the expensive equipment, we may need to FLO steel shafts to ensure we get the true plane. I was hoping this wasn't necessary, as I find FLOing steel shafts to be so bloody time consuming, sigh. I watch tour players execute near flawless shots, and that of my son hitting 5 iro
