Should I just be looking at a 19oz. glass, and 10mm max core thickness, or something else entirely? That's really not enough information. What are your tip thicknesses? Will it be a linear taper, or some other shape? You could do a 10mm center... and 10mm tips, and you'll have a non-skiable 2x4! I ...

I want to mimic the flex profile of the older EP Pro or Line Elizabeth models. Maybe not quite so soft, but close.

Should I just be looking at a 19oz. glass, and 10mm max core thickness, or something else entirely?

And should I be looking to match core material with Maple?

thanks!

What I may end up doing is cutting a pattern in the rubber. Mostly along the edge, full width underfoot, with a tapered gap that gets wider toward the tip and tail, then full width at the tip and tail to help with delam protection. It shouldn't be too hard to do, just modifying the base mill pattern...

the metal is said to give added torsional stiffness and dampness from added weight. the amount of added weight from vds top and bottom would be significant. Weight isn't really a concern, I want to retain a certain flex and playfulness, while adding dampness and extra delamination protection to boo...

Apparently the 2013 head lineup replaced titanal with full width VDS to retain dampening characteristics, at reduced weight, and retaining soft flexes. (Or at least in some of the models) Has anyone done this? How well did it work compared to Titanal? It is proving hard to find a titanal source stat...
