My own opinion is yes, floing *can* make a difference. This is just my observations, mostly with my own swing since I know it. But I think the difference is usually subtle and probably often nothing. If I am making clubs for someone who truly cares about their game and can feel the difference between good and not good clubs, I will do it. Otherwise it's logo up or down, baby. :)
I have had some great results with what they like to call Type II shafts, where there are two spines 180* apart and you usually find a great FLO 90* off that. Put the FLO to the target and you've got a stable shaft in the impact zone. Just my observation but backed up by others' as well. I save those for my own clubs. :-) -Don M --- On Fri, 7/10/09, Robert Devino <robertdev...@yahoo.com> wrote: > From: Robert Devino <robertdev...@yahoo.com> > Subject: Re: ShopTalk: SST Pured > To: ShopTalk@mail.msen.com > Date: Friday, July 10, 2009, 10:19 AM > Don is > right about the flowing. we had plenty of shafts that after > being Pured would almost go in circles when you went to > frequency them. > > Here is a question.
