Your right to replace the shaft if it is not the right one for your swing. With a 95 MPH swing you can likely go with a stiff shaft (not an x-stiff). And for the price range you are looking in, I suggest a Penley Stealth 70.

Depending on where you get it, it should cost $30 to $35.

It comes in a length of 46". Depending on your height and swing, cutting it down to 44" or 45" might be a good idea.

I am 6' and have a swing well in excess of 100 mph (130 mph is not uncommon) and cut it down to 44" for better control.

Thanks for the advice,.. I might go in that direction.

I broke my driver last year, and I never got around to getting another one, because I was hitting my 3-wood fairly long for me (about 220-240) and fairly straight, so I didn't bother.. Now I'm looking for that extra 20-30 yards off the tee that might help lower my scores.

Just got my new TM and took it to the range last night and I wasn't overly impressed with the distance (About as long as my 3-wood) and I didn't feel any power vibes from the stock shaft (43", Reg, 60 grams).

You're a few inches taller than me, so will the 44 be much?
