went to the range tonight and hit a Stiff r7460TP 9.5*
my current driver is a regular shaft titleist 975JVS 10.5* and i really didnt notice any difference in the shafts.. i didnt even really hit the r7 much farther.. i was wondering if maybe the different loft/shaft stiffness combined may have canceled out any possible distance changes?

905R 9.5* Fujikura Speeder
200 steel 3 wood
200 steel 5 wood
690.CB 3-PW
56* 14 Pro Platinum Newport 2 Pro V1 B330-S

absolutely. I was demo'ing the 905R with the UST V2, Aldila NV, Fuji 692 and Graphic Design YS-6. All stiff, all similar in specs - HUGE difference in distance, ball flight, trajectory... GD YS-6 was the only one that "worked" for me...

Shafts will make a big difference. Some would say that the shaft is as important, or more, than the clubhead itself. I like the shafts that they are putting in the TaylorMade drivers right now. They fit my swing pretty well.

Oh, and since we're on the topic of this driver...Rafi, check out my sig now.

Fairways and Greens.

Nice ! You finally catching up to the 21st century
Kind of surprised to see the hybrid though, especially since you carry 3i - don't you hit it up to 240?
check my sig too - looks like I'll be switching sponsors (I might keep the Taylor Made head cover though..)

      Day 113: 4/18/24 Stack training progress check after finishing my 6th program, and 4th Full Speed Spectrum Training session, which is recommended for my next program.     Gained 1 mph with driver, 195 g, 95g. Maintained with 280 g , and gained 2 with 145 g. Lost 1 mph on both lead and trail arm. Felt like I lost distance in my last round…

      Please forgive the sweaty shirt.  Just got off the treadmill and decided to do my Evolvr drill.

      I'd agree that 4w seems like the right play here. I'm not a course designer or anything but that hole looks like it could be so much more fun if everyone played from those front 2 tee boxes that are right outside your shot cone and they cut down most of the trees down that left side of the fairway. That would give risk reward to long hitters who want to try and push it up to that left fairway, allow more players to reach that second fairway, and still allowing it to be perfectly playable for someone who only hits driver like 150yds off the tee.   Yeah it looks like 4iron aimed at that inside edge of the right bunker is the play there, especially if you don't expect a 20mph tailwind again. If it is down wind again, 5iron would be just fine too, it'd still get you inside 150yds for your approach.  Keep in mind tee marker locations too, you measured that one from the back so if those tee markers are moved all the way towards the front of that box then 5 iron is probably best just to be sure that right bunker is never in play.

      Best Shot of the Week

      By billchao ·

      Hit my tee shot just into the penalty area and barely found it. Swung hard just in case I hit it. It was slightly downhill with a heavy tailwind. I don't actually hit my 9i 170 yards.
