Can anyone help me? I've been trying to distinguish the difference between the Fubuki Tour 63 and the Fubuki 64 MTS. I've googled it and nothing comes up but adds for Mizuno drivers with the 64 MTS installed in them.

Can anyone tell me if there is a difference between the two what exactly it is?

Is it just that one was made specifically for Mizuno and the other wasn't?

Is it that one is a tour model and the other isn't?


I just want some clarification.

Thanks!

You might want to call your local golf club builder. If you have a Golfsmith or Edwin Watts, thats where I would start.

Here's an excerpt from a Golfwrx review. The 64 MTS is a made-for-Mizuno thing, not the same shaft. That could be good, or that could be bad. Here's the clip:

The stock shaft might have been the most impressive aspect of this club. It is a 64gram “Made for Mizuno” Fubuki. Now, 99% of the made for shafts in drivers are watered down versions of the original, but this one is actually a beefed up version of the 63gram Fubuki Tour. I’ve hit the original Fubuki Tour in the 63 and 73 grams shafts and the “Made for Mizuno” Fubuki I actually liked better. Mizuno had Mitsubishi beef up the tip section a little bit, thus lowering the launch, torque and tightening up the feel. I was honestly blown away with how good this shaft felt and performed. It maintained Fubuki’s low spin, and amazing carry distance, but dropped launch angle a little and firmed up the feel. I still got that surprising distance out of the shaft with better overall performance.
