Tensei White Raw AV X vs TX

[PingMD702 211]

Hey everyone!

I recently got a 7 wood that came with a Tour AD GP shaft but unfortunately the shaft is all sorts of messed up from the previous owner. I ended up grabbing a Tensei White Raw AV 85 TX shaft instead. I was looking at the specs off Mitsubishis website and noticed the only difference between the 85 X and TX is 0.1 torque. Im curious is there really any difference between the X/TX? Here are some numbers from the simulator today. The 85 TX is on my 7 wood (21) and my 4 wood has the same shaft but in 75X. Based off this small sample size do you think I can get away with using a TX in the 7 wood? Thanks!

totally.  I have AV Raw White in X and TX flexes in both 75 and 85 G weights.  FWIW, I am a scratch golfer and I find the two shafts virtually indistinguishable from one another.  Enjoy the TX and don't let the label bother you

and just to close the loop on your question, using this in a 7 wood should be no problem.  Is there a particular concern you have over the shaft?

For a minute there I thought it was too stiff for me even though its not that typical block fade you'd see if the shaft was too stiff haha. I think youre right though, the TX is really tripping me up. It makes me feel I am not worthy to use that shaft HAHAHAHA! Most of my shots with the 7 wood with the 85TX have a tendency to draw/hook. The shop I bought it from told me its tipped 2 inches that's what got me worried it might be too stiff haha. I appreciate your feedback!
