Although it's not an actual TM Rescue, I reshafted a 21� dynacraft Jackaroo 
at the beginning of the season, and I haven't looked back.  The Jackaroo 
was originally shafted with an Apache PM-30 R flex iron shaft, trimmed 
based on the 2 iron trimming instructions from Dynacraft.  The club had a 
frequency of 289, which fell pretty much right in line with the rest of my 
irons and the 3 iron that it replaced.

The club performed well for me, well enough to stay in the bag for over a 
season (pretty good for a club ho like me).  However, I longed for a little 
higher trajectory, and a club that behaved more like a wood than an 
iron.  Last fall I reshafted a coworker's orlimar+ driver that had an EI-70 
+ stiff shaft.  I kept the shaft as I really wanted to try a wood shaft in 
the Jackaroo, and the orlimar's have a .369 diameter hosel.  This worked 
out great as the EI-70 just happens to still be my favorite wood 
shaft.  Tipping the shaft all the way to the last usable part of the 
parallel tip yielded a frequency of 270 at (I think, can't remember exactly 
now) 41".  This falls in line pretty well with my woods.

The bottom line is that I now have a utility club that plays more like a 
wood than an iron, and is exactly what I was looking for.
