reshafting TM Mids

I am looking to pull a couple of old MAS shafts out of my TM Rescue Mids (2 & 3) and reshaft them. I have checked the TM site and for some reason they do not have the men's rescue mids specs listed (I checked under vintage). They still have the women's listed.

Anyway, I am just trying to confirm that the tip on these are .370" prior to ordering the shafts. Thanks for any help!

I recently replaced the original junk MAS on a driver and VSteel with an Aldila NVS and an ProLaunch Blue and have been VERY happy with both. I will give the UST a look also, thanks!

I have both UST Irod and Aldila NV shafts in hybrids, they're both terrific shafts. The Rescue mid specs are the same as the Rescue Dual I believe. 0.370 tips.

I am new to reshafting but I have found that reshafting greatly improves club performance. I was fitted for an Aldila NVS65 that I have been very happy with. It gives me a stiffer feel which I like but still gives me a reg flex that I need ( I am right on the border of R/S with a 95ish MPH driver speed). I have also tried a ProLaunch Blue65 that I also have been very happy with.

Performance wise, has anyone noticed any real difference in namebrand shafts? (aldila/graffaloy/UST). I would like to put Aldila NVS shafts in these hybrids, but the cheapest I can find them is about $70US, while the prolaunch hy only run about $30US.

See how much you can get a UST Irod hybrid for. I really like that shaft in my Innovex hybrid. But the NVS is supposed to be terrific for hybrids too.

I can get the IRods for $37US each, so after shipping,price will be about the same as ProLaunch. Aldila NVScome in at twice the price. While I like the end results of reshafting, I just hate it because it is near impossible to try before you buy. As stated above, I have used aldila NV (I didnt like ball flight) , NVS (I Love it) and ProLaunch Blue (really like it on fairway wood).

Is the UST Irod going to be a better choice for a hybrid than the ProLaunch Hy?

BTW, I like a stiffer feeling club.
