Been struggling with my driver recently R11s Kai'li 60 S, went from hitting high spin shots right one week to low spin left the next, finally sorted it out and got fitted for a more suitable shaft. 100mph ss
Tried about 15 shafts at my fitter around the 60-70g mark and i was spraying them a little bit, then he put the Fubuki Tour 53 S (actually 57g I think) with higher tourque (4.2) than almost anything else I tried before and everything went straight down the middle, i could fade/draw on demand, swing smooth or hard and it just worked every time, i found it hard to miss the fw, it was so tight. I feel it let me swing exactly the way I want to (swing thought "turn and hinge").
I didn't even try any other fubuki shaft like the 63 or a or k after that, and he could have charged me what he liked. The only thing that i had an afterthought about was that the spin was about 3000, and maybe 2600-2750 could be perfect and maybe I should have tried the Tour 63 but I tend to need the launch angle so I will just play a low spin ball like Hex Black or V1x.
How does this work?? that going lighter and more active tip has actually had the effect that I thought going the opposite way would. Considering that the best i've driven it in the last couple of years has been with a Proforce V2 66 S which is the opposite end of the scale. Confusing!
