I've built several of the clubs, and I heartily recommend that a
graphite shaft be used if you really want to realize the potential of
this head. I have discovered that you should assume a full flex
difference (10 cpm) between a normal insertion depth and the BOM. My
favourite shaft for this head is an Apache MFS65N (in dark blue), which
means that I order an A-2 flex if I want an R-2 in the finished club.
I've also discovered that most Canadian golfers aren't big fans of the
"gaudy without being tasteful" Orange Crush colour, but love theblue
version and the results they get with the shaft.
FWIW, I now understand that the USGA has deemed the BOM non-conforming,
even if it carries the "M" serial number. I make certain that each of
my customers know this before I order the head. That said, it's still a
beautiful, well performing head.

Ron

I'm thinking of building up a Bang BOM using a TT Dynamic Gold shaft,
but the extra deep bore (Bang calls it 80mm vs the 40mm or so on their
other heads) looks like it will stiffen up your typical shaft by 1/2-1
full flex.
