You may as well call it by another name or even colour, purely and simply to differentiate one from another. That part is up to the OEM - after all, what exactly is regular or stiff? It's not a defined absolute. The manufacturing process has nothing to do with how the shaft flex category is designated. The fact that some tolerances can be this wide, makes me question other tolerances as well.
#SPINE ALIGN BOLT PRO#
My Fujikura Pro 50 shaft for instance is an R flex, but actually measured between S and X when tested by my fitter. Sure the processes are getting better, but with the mass production of some of these shafts, it can be a toss up for what you actually get. Will it make a huge difference? Only time will tell since this will be my first Pure'd club.Īs for manufacturing getting better, I would like to refute this. I opted to let the fitter build the shaft which includes Pure'ing.
#SPINE ALIGN BOLT DRIVER#
Me personally, I was just fitted for a driver and it's being built right now. I know it has been linked to on MGS before, because that's how I initially came across it, I just don't recall where: It's a small sample size, but I thought this was an interesting test of shaft Pure'ing. Titleist stands behind the performance of our product 100% with the shafts and processes we have tested ourselves within our own facilities using our own equipment. In fact, most of our Titleist Tour players do not have their shafts pure'd. It is also important to note that not 'all' tour players play with pure'd shafts. However, we feel that this process can only make a psychological difference vs a measurable performance difference based on our extensive testing as stated above. Tour players can indeed have their shafts pure'd. We have no plans to offer PURE'D shafts and do not endorse or recommend the process for Titleist clubs. Therefore, we do not feel PURING adds any performance improvement or benefit. We have never been able to see or measure any performance difference whatsoever. The Titleist Golf Club R&D group has conducted testing with tour and better players to compare performance between shafts that have been PURE'D and shafts that have not. Thanks you guys making me feel sane this morning.,And then there's this:
My SLDR set in the same position it's been in for years. I don't even have the tool to do this type of work.
I'm not planning to SA anything I'm working on. I think you two guys, Lukes, Meyer you've already confirmed my thoughts. I'm sure one or more of you guys can set me straight. The spine doesn't change but by inserting the shaft in the head at your prefered setting it's now not aligned. I'm not sure how when spine-aligning a shaft without the head initially attached and in your prefered position/setting (just a bare shaft less adapter - perhaps with a grip) and then attaching the head in some position like we all do that the spine alignment is still aligned. What's the point in Spine-Aligning a driver shaft when it might later be placed in the head at a different position from where the spine was aligned? Doesn't that kind of defeat the purpose of aligning the shaft in the first place? And this applies to any adjustable head club. However, I have been messing around some lately experimenting with a few different shafts for my new Cobra FZ+. I'm not a club builder and not much of a club tinker'er either. I need some schooling from you experts out here.
