I don't know how I would label them. That's why I think mfr's should be doing a better job, not the end user. If all the info you just presented was already in the documentation or printed on the shaft it would be a lot easier to make decisions as to which shaft to buy, wouldn't it? How much equipment would a small clubmaker have to invest in to gain that info?

You can disagree all you want - fine with me, but buying equipment from advertisements and "what Tiger's using" is nonsense! All I'm suggesting is that clubmakers be offered more than the alphabetical nonsense we have now, and have had for as long as I've been doing this stuff.

And please note . . . . I said the alphabet should be tossed and solid info provided. I also think numbers should be deleted from irons - your 30 degree 5 iron doesn't go as far as my 27 degree 5 iron. Mark them all with degrees.

There, there's another item you can disagree with.

JMHO, but I don't think he is being a wise ass and I don't think it is tech bullshit. I am pretty sure that if you have two shafts with 250 cpm butt frequency and the mid sections of the shafts are 40 cpms different and the tip sections are 75 cpm different those two shafts are not going to play the same or feel the same.

    Oh please . . . spare me the tech bullshit. I took a first shot at
    it. If you have a better idea present it rather than being a wise
    ass.

    And exactly what do you think this would tell you?

    Comparing the butt frequencies of unlike shaft models tells you
    nothing more about that shaft than a letter designator does.

    This is not really going to help - at all...
