When you use a stiffer blank, you don't have to tip trim as much
from the shaft...it leaves you with a slightly lower kick point.
Imagine trying to obtain the same CPM from a 4.0 blank and a 6.0
blank....you will have to cut a lot more from the tip of the 4.0
blank. The final frequencies may be the same, but you will have
different kick points. The 4.0 shaft will have had more of the
thinner portion of the shaft cut off. The 6.0 shaft will have a lot
more of that thinnner section still there.
hope that helps,
Mike

Al,
I'm confused. I thought that flighted rifles were supposed to have
higher than normal trajectories on longer clubs and lower on shorter
clubs. How does using stiffer shafts on longer and weaker shafts
on shorter clubs do that? Particularly when you're building to
target cpm's? Seems counterintuitive.

Scott.....you need a few 6.0 blanks...generally.....6.0s in the
3,4,5; 5.5s in 6,7,8; 5,0s in the 9 and Ws.all tipped to yr target
cpms...If you are using a freq meter, you can tip the shafts at
playing length. see if you can get a 7g dispersion between
heads....and space yr lengths somewhere between .375 and .
400"....and you get close to an MOI'd set...
I have a couple 6.0 blanks if you need them. i can walk you thru it
if you email me directly.....as soon as my broadband service gets
back up !...
