I have been using the MP 58s for about a year now and I have hit them pretty well. Recently, though, I just got fitted for X-100 shafts and thanks to my job, I am able to afford nice new clubs for almost nothing. I decided to go with the 63s and I was wondering if anyone could tell me any big differences I'll experience switching from the 58s to the 63s. Any feedback is appreciated. Thanks.

  • 4 weeks later...

Depending on the shafts that you had in the 58's, I'm guessing that the new shafts will give you a jolting bit of a reality check unless you are more often the 4 handicap and your swing requires an extra stiff shaft.

Of course, if you had extra stiff shafts and you were hitting the 58's well, I wouldn't expect a big difference. Last week I hit the 63's and the Ping i20's just for a comparison.  I liked the 63's better.

However, with new clubs, you will end up spending more time noticing bag chatter marks...

Yeah, I had the S-300s in the 58s and now I have the X-100s in my 63s and I thought it would be a tough adjustment, but it's been a huge improvement. I get better flight and distance with the new shafts and the 63s have a better sound than the 58s. Overall, I couldn't be happier with the change, but thank you.

    • Day 82: 3/18/24 Tried a Stack session but could not certify my warmup. Finished with indoor chips and putting. 
    • Day 96 (18 Mar 24) - Continued work with the Divot Board with the GW and hard foam balls.  Focused on small target/small miss…setup to hit target about 30yds out - success if it hit within 6’ circle of target, fail if outside.  Had decent success averaging about 3 out of 4 (hitting in groups of four).

    • I'm relieved someone finally defined hiking. I was giddy when I saw these new TPI videos a day or so after they dropped. Very easy to understand the problem and solution the way they have presented it. Been working on fixing this for about a year and a half now. It's nice to be able to call it something so communication becomes easy.  I was working on more lateral and up too, but just having someone define it clearly in video form was so helpful for me to continue confidently with what I thought was wrong and how I had to fix it.  My conceptual error here was just trying to rotate like a tour pro but without including the necessary forward pressure/weight shift associated with enough lateral and upward motion of the pelvis.  This video is great too, as is Greg Rose.
    • Day 2.    couple mins of rolling putts end over end.    10 mins of Slow, mirror work, working on starting the downswing and impact wrist positions. Hit a couple balls into the net after.    Then finished with a couple chips to see if I could repeat what I worked on yesterday.
