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.

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.
So how would you label them?

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...
