Shafts

    I have an R11 driver with a fujikura blur 60 stiff shaft. It seems quite lightweight.
    Recently I bought an R11 3 wood with a fujikura motore f1 stiff shaft. It seems much heavier and to my mind better. Is motore f1 a better more expensive shaft than blur and would ye recommend me to put a motore f1 on the driver to give more distance?
    Thanks

    Impossible to know; too many variables.

    Hit both and see which one goes better.

    Thread should have been called "Shafts! Can you dig it?"

    The exact same shaft will do different things in different clubheads...gotta try them all on a trackman and go from there.

    Greebo, Walk on by ;)

    Edit:
    Just for clarification, Hayes did a cover of that

    Is the 3-wood you bought the "TP" model?

    I thought the Motore F1 was only available in the TP model. If that is the case it is in a completely different league to the Blur that is in your Driver. The Blur is a "made for" shaft and the Motore F1 would be a genuine after market upgrade shaft.

    The made for and the real deal are miles apart. Any after market shaft with the same launch angles will go a bit further.

    Completely different shafts. The motore f1 in the wood is stiffer, for starters the club is shorter than the driver and the shaft in the wood probably 75-85g weight so it will play heavier and stiffer for sure. The stock blur 60s in the r11 is a good few cpm less than the motore f1 shaft. You would definitely notice the difference

    Don't think it's the TP model. Not written on it anywhere.

    TM do a made for fujikura motore f1 shaft as well as far as I know so might not be an after market shaft.
