switching from Project x Flighted to PX non flighted

I currently play the same clubs as you but with the non-flighted PX 6.5's. I am demo'ing a set of Nike Pro Cavity for a few weeks with True Temper Dynalite Stiff. I have to say... they're pretty refreshing. I tried the Flighted PX's when I bought my Callaways and I hit them way too high. What is your typical miss with your current clubs?

The DG model shafts have a high kickpoint, which would help you keep the ball down a little on all your irons.

It's interesting you hit the ball really high w/7i, as flighting is supposed to lessen ballooning on short irons. As you say, a shift from 5.0 to 5.5 should lower the ball flight due to extra stiffness. (Search on past posts to find the stiffness comparison between PX and DG shafts)

Key thing would be to test different shafts in the Titleist AP2 head; larger shops have Titleist test boxes that allow you to swap out shafts on the type of iron head you're considering.

Given you're an 8 HDCP, you might consider a dynamic fitting (will cost some $$) to see just what you need.

must have been the r9s, ive got the kbs shaft and love them! If you get custom fit you can try all different shafts and get them on a launch monitor!

I tried a set of R9 tp last year with the stiff KBS shaft in them and hated them. Played them for about a month and shot distance was never consistent. Most shots were long but then you would adjust for it and co e up way short. I think the cast head really had me confused. Who knows. Went back to my Callaways and everything was great. I just want a new set that is a little more forgiving. My 7 iron is a carry of about 165.
