Hey Supo, wish I had your arsenal and access to all this equipment (TSG aside) will have to keep saving and move to Tokyo!
Thanks for all the info on shafts and clubs it does help the rest of us, can you let us know what your swing speed and physical dimesions are so we can get a bit of a baseline for comparison.
Thanks

rather than butcher this club and start experimenting with shafts,
will just sell it and wait til the alphas become available. oh boy i should
have been more patient
Hey Spoon how did you find the flight and launch of the 15? obviously the shaft didn't suit but was it easy to get off the ground? I am tossing up between 15 and 17, I usually can't hit 15's very well and have been using an 18 cobra pro but the idea of having a 15,18 and 22 in the bag appeals.
Thanks

i had a highish ballflight, a bit too high but that is not the fault of the club. unfortunately i got the club knowing that it wouldnt be for me and that i would just pull the shaft. i can say with much confidence that the 15 is quite easy to hit compared to other woods i have tried. the egg is low profile and the sole makes it easier to pick up the ball. the crown is just something else and the edge is just as thin as a blade. its beautiful. wether to get the 15 or 17? that is the never ending question. i know for a fact that the 17 will be much easier than the 15. havent regretted my choice though. good luck

Yea some guy dropped me on Wrx. No contact with him since he accepted pay pal. Very upsetting been waiting for this for 2 weeks. Hoping hes just on hols or something. Oh well gives me a chance to try the quadra which im ver y excited about. I def need something a little lower launching than the old one from a tee、i found this to. Be too high yesterday. Its great from the ground but not piercing enough off the tee box. Cost me too much in direction to b what im after as my driver
replacement, the new one is earmarked for that with the quadra now, the fubuki is very good but just not good enough . Im too picky!

S, The Quadra will give you better direction and trajectory than the Fubuki. You already know very well that it is one awesome shaft.

I played again with the spoon yesterday and I have to make a point on the aerodynamic wind sound this club makes when you swing it... no other clubs makes a whoosh through the air like this one does...

If I'm not mistaken the tip is 0.335" but I will double check as sometimes fW's are 0.350
