Absolutely, that’s the dilemma! Sometimes you gamble with high-priced gear, but it can totally pay off—like with the Fujikura! Has anyone done a side-by-side comparison on the feel yet?
For a side-by-side, I’d recommend specifically comparing the Motore X F3 with the Fujikura Pro series. The Pro series is lighter and has a different kick point, which some prefer. It really depends on personal preference.
Honestly, I tried the Pro series before and just didn’t get the same feel as with the Motore X F3. It’s more about what suits your swing type! You gotta play around to find your ‘soulmate’ shaft, haha!
Haha, true! That’s what shaft hunting feels like! I’m thinking of testing the Motore X F3 next week. Is it a good choice for moderate swing speeds, though?
Definitely! The Motore X F3 offers a good mix of distance and control that can cater to various swing speeds. It would be interesting to see how you feel about it once you try it, godonnell!
I’ve been using the Fujikura Motore X F3 for a couple of months now. Installation was quite straightforward for me, but I’ve heard some folks mention compatibility issues with certain drivers.
I’ve experienced the same! I found it easy to fit in my driver. Did you have to adjust the settings afterward?
Compatibility with older club heads can sometimes be tricky. It’s crucial to check if your particular model is designed to handle this shaft’s specs before purchasing.
Good point! I was thinking about using it with my older driver. Any specific models that you’ve found work best?
I installed the Motore X F3 into my TaylorMade driver and faced no issues at all. Just make sure the tip size is compatible! Otherwise, it fits like a glove.
I love the shaft, but fitting can feel a bit tight in some heads. It’s worth double-checking before buying to avoid frustrations. Better safe than sorry!
Exactly! I learned that the hard way after a bit of sanding with one of my clubs, haha!
How long did you all take for the installation? Just wondering if it typically requires a pro or if I can manage it myself.
Installation was about 20 minutes for me, and I’m no pro! Just follow the instructions, and you should be fine.
Curious about the performance! How does it compare to other shafts you’ve used? Any noticeable differences?
In terms of feel and distance, I’d say it beats out most of my previous shafts! But that might just be me.
