See below in my sig.

The Uniflex shaft in the irons is OK, but there's probably a better one if I wanted to change irons. From data on OEM websites, I would be interested in trying DG R300 SL, Project X 5.0 flighted, and KBS Tour 90.

Focus, connect and follow through!

Favorite driver shaft is Harrison Saga 70S, very stable but tons of feel and a great trajectory. Awesome shaft for $60.

Haven't really found a perfect fairway wood shaft, but the Prolaunch Platinum 75S I'm using now is pretty nice..and an awesome deal at $30 shipped that can be found on Ebay.

cut at the butt or at the tip?

cutting at the butt wont change the stiffness of the club but trimming the tip will affect the stiffness....im assuming you knew this though for me.....see sig

I've been hating on my exotics cb3 tour drivers stock shaft and wasn't sure if it was either cheaply made or I should've gone up in flex (it has a 65 gram regular motore "exotics" shaft) found out I was averaging 93 with an occasional 95-97 in there. Which was a big lift from a year before (avg. 86) knew I wanted to drop the stock like a bad habit and was looking at grafalloy on goldsmith and found the red. The swingspeed for regular is 90-100 which is nice because I'll always have that low trajectory and have room for speed improvement. I'm also "not in season" just yet. Looking forward to reshafting here sometime this week. I'll be posting against soon on the results! Super pumped though!

But I had a Harrison Eclipse 65s in my driver.

Exsar DS4 in my driver, Mitsubushi Rayon Fubuki stiff in my 3-wood, Accel-Arc stiff in my 5-wood, Project-X 6.0 in my irons and a mix of DG Spinner and Dynamic Gold in my wedges.

I tend to prefer stiff shafts.  I find that with a stiff I have a tighter dispersion pattern and Im less likely to turn the club over and hit a big ole hook than I am with regular shafts.

playing the Nippon 8950gh shaft in regular flex. Feels good and smooth but Nippon's claims its a mid-high tracjectory which I had no idea considering its mid kick. I think I might be skying them a bit too high

is there any companies that make a shaft that are regular flex mid kick with a low to mid trajectory? My only thought is rifle/project x because the regular isn't actually made for a slower swing speed in mind. I've been referred to KBS royal precision true temp.  and Nippon.

Ideas? Opinions?

My Henry-Griffitts driver and fairway woods have Stripe-It shafts.  I didn't ask for them.  That's what the fitter gave me.

My Miura irons have NV Pro 105s from Aldila, which I had to fight for because they weren't offered.  I just hit them well in my old Kenneth Smith irons.

I hit regular flex shafts in both my irons and woods. Senior flex shafts have that nice "hickory" feel but spray the ball around a bit too much.

Taylormade RocketBallz.....13° tour spoon;  Ping G15.....17° fairway wood;  Callaway RAZR X Blk.....24° fairway wood;

Epon AF-901....19° driving iron;  Wishon 870Ti....5-8 irons (1° weak), 9-iron (2° weak); Nakashima SuperSpin.....52, 58, 64° wedges;

Lovett Tour Standard.....sand iron; Louisville HB.....putter.

      I would recommend spending some time at the range and film your swing. You can post it in the Member Swings thread. At the range, you can figure out how to control the driver a bit more. We can offer some pointers once you post in the Member Swings section.

      With the H4 or the watch, you tag the club before hitting by putting the tag next to the device. The tag is on the club butt end. After a round, you don’t really think about it too much. You just do it. I don’t know how far you are from @phillyk, but he may know an instructor in your area.

      So the biggest issue right now is marrying the hands down with an athletic turn. I can get stuck not turning. Things get interesting from there.

      Playing With Irons

      By John of Art ·

      Hi everybody!  I am new to the golf game. I have taken some lessons and got fitted for clubs a couple of months ago. I usually score between 110-120 for 18 holes.  I bought a Stealth driver last year and have been hitting consistently with it 210-230 yds on the simulator. But when I take it out on the course, every drive is a severe slice!  I played 18 holes yesterday at the club where I belong. I removed the driver from my bag and used the 5 iron to drive with. I hit straight 16 out of 18 drives, 180 - 200 yds. I used the 5i - putter for the rest of my game.  I ended the day with a 92. Question: Does it make sense for me to continue playing with irons only until I get further along in my game before I reintroduce the Driver and woods again? Or should I continue to struggle with the Driver and woods and shoot in the 100’s again? To me it’s a no brainer, but for those more advanced I am interested to get feedback.
