TFlan you are indeed correct, it's important to also state the tip weight used. For irons and woods I use a 205 gram drill chuck. What do you use for wood shafts, do you still use 254 grams or do you drop it down to 205 gram wt.?
I wonder what the difference in cpm would be using a GS 5" butt clamp going from 205 gram to 254 gram tip weight? Anyone knows, I would like to know what the drop in cpm's would be with using an extra 49 grams wt.

How come you don't mention tip weight? That is certainly a major factor in determining freqs regardless of clamp insertion depth. Freq'ing with grip on only shows fewer cpm's and has nothing to do with the flex of the shaft, It's simply a matter of choice, as long as the choice is consistent, IMO. I prefer no grip testing. And, I use a 254 gram tip weight and a 5" clamp insertion. TFlan -- Shoptalk ** Sponsored by the new Aldila Voodoo. Learn more at http://aldilavoodoo.com/
