Thanks for your reply. Just about what I expected. I have
several rapport shafts manufactures frequency 268-272 marked A/l
Combination flex and a set or Fenwick 6.0 with frequencies in the same
ranges.
I am a member of the neu-finder group but have been waiting for
some of the modifications to shake out before assembling mine. Perhaps
I should wait until I build before I assemble any more clubs.
Again thanks for your input
Tom

Tom,
There are a number of frequency charts available that break frequency
into
flexes. Problem is, every manufacturer sems to have his own ranges. I
have
four different ones on my corkboard. The first, I got from an old ST'er
long
gone by the name of Bozman....and it seems more accurate to me than the
others. The second one I got was from Kaufman Enterprises...John may
still
have one of these. Brunswick has one that relates their 2.0-7.0
designations
to frequency and RSSR swingspeed. I have no idea where the fourth one
came
from, but it is also different.
What is the clublength? Frequency drops as length increases...at least
it
does on these charts. At 45" on Bozman's chart, 270 cpm is about right
on
the line between S and X. Kaufman's chart puts 270 a hair below the X
line.
The Brunswick chart seems to put a 6.0 on the 95 RSSR swing speed at 270
cpm. The "unknown" chart also puts 270 at 45" on the X line. So, I guess
for
once, they are pretty much in agreement.
Geez, I'm glad I have an NF2 deflection machine. We're hoping we can
calibrate all our machines and develop our own standard charts for
deflection.
