FreeFlex FF38 TBT series Price: $700 USDInternational Shipping: $90 (FedEx Priority, 4–7 Business Days) Specs: 38 g, 170 cpm, 4.5 torque Raw Length: 46" uncut Tip Diameter: 0.335 taper Adapters Available: Callaway, TaylorMade, PING, Titleist, Cobra, PXG (+$20 each) Titanium Bending Technology (TBT™). Enhanced Stability. Unmistakably FreeFlex. The FF38 TBT builds upon the award-winning FF38 platform by introducing our exclusive Titanium Bending Technology (TBT™)—designed for golfers who prefer a firmer sensation at impact while preserving the effortless loading and smooth feel that define every FreeFlex shaft. Retaining the original 170 CPM flex profile and 4.5° torque, each FF38 TBT shaft is hand-reinforced with a helically embedded titanium wire that refines shaft behavior through impact. Although the titanium reinforcement adds approximately 2 grams of weight, the shaft remains exceptionally lightweight and responsive. Rather than changing the signature performance of the original FF38, TBT enhances clubface stability through the hitting zone while delivering a firmer, more connected feel at impact. The result is a shaft that maintains the smooth loading characteristics of FreeFlex while providing greater confidence and control when swinging aggressively. Who Is It Designed For?The FF38 TBT Series is designed for golfers who enjoy the loading characteristics of a softer shaft but prefer the crisp, stable impact sensation typically associated with firmer conventional shafts. Available in two performance models:FF38 TBT 2.0 (silver rings) Reinforced with 0.2 mm titanium wire for a balanced combination of smooth loading and enhanced stability. Recommended swing speed: 90–105 mph Designed for golfers seeking a balanced combination of effortless speed, stability, and feel.FF38 TBT 3.0 (gold rings) Reinforced with 0.3 mm titanium wire for golfers seeking maximum stability and the firmest impact feel in the FreeFlex lineup. Recommended swing speed: 100–115 mph Designed for stronger players who prefer an even firmer impact sensation while retaining the unique loading characteristics of FreeFlex. FF38 TBT 3.0 (Gold band), FF38 TBT 2.0 (Silver band) Performance Characteristics Hand-reinforced with helically embedded titanium wire Smooth shaft loading with enhanced impact stability Firmer, more connected feel through impact Helps maintain a squarer clubface through the hitting zone Reduced tendency for excessive closure and left misses Combines effortless speed with greater directional consistencyThe FF38 TBT retains the lively loading characteristics of the original FF38 throughout the swing, while the titanium reinforcement helps control excessive shaft deformation through impact. This allows the clubhead to remain more stable through the strike, promoting improved face control and tighter shot dispersion.Golfers who occasionally battle hooks or prefer a more solid impact sensation will immediately notice the difference. The Next Evolution of FreeFlex TechnologyEvery FreeFlex shaft is built upon our proprietary FreeFlex Technology (FFT), which independently engineers weight, flex, and torque to achieve a unique combination of speed, feel, and stability. The FF38 TBT Series takes that philosophy one step further by integrating Titanium Bending Technology, enhancing impact stability while preserving the effortless loading and smooth feel that define the FreeFlex experience. For golfers who appreciate the original FF38 but prefer a firmer impact sensation and greater clubface stability, the TBT Series represents the next evolution in FreeFlex performance.
