Looking to replace the stock shaft in a Mizuno F-60 3W R-flex I bought used. Does anyone have any suggestions for a S-flex replacement? NOTE: I have had 2 previous negative Aldila experiences, love my UST V2 S-flex 66g/3.0* TQ replacement driver shaft. Swing speed 102, prefer mid launch. Thanks

It's not a whiz bang $300 "exotic" shaft, but I've tried a lot of shafts and settled on the Prolaunch Platinum for fairway woods, 75g Stiff.  Gives perfect ball flight, stability, and feel for me.  They're dirt cheap on Ebay, I just picked up two more for $44.

Like the Proforce V2 as well

The Harrison Saga I have in my 3 wood has been the best fairway shaft I've used. Long and very stable. Plus they come in at a great price ($70-100).

Yes, good call on the Saga.  One of my favorite shafts in a driver, I experimented with one in a Fairway in Xstiff but it was a little much, 70S would be great as well.

    • Do you have examples of exceptional scores versus their established handicap indexes?
    • Day 539, April 23, 2024 Mirror work once again. When I get back to swings, I'll just do it A. LOT.
    • A bit of background. The Southern California Golf Association (SCGA) runs an annual event known as "Team Play." It is a wildly popular match play competition where Men's Clubs across the region put together teams of 20+ golfers together to compete against other clubs in a 16 vs. 16 match. In any given year, approximately 80-100 clubs will participate. Each club is grouped into "pods" of 4, and will play 6 total matches - one home and one away match against the other 3 clubs. The winning club from each pod advances to the Team Play Playoffs - a single elimination format - until a winner is crowned.  Antelope Valley Country Club just advanced to the championship match for the 3rd consecutive year. They won the championship in both 2022 and 2023.  Based on my review of the match history from the past 3 years (linked below), they have won 21 consecutive team matches. Keep in mind, these are handicapped matches, so this is not just a case where a group of sticks bands together to dominate the poor amateurs other SoCal clubs. Even if these guys are grinders who never quit, play their best under pressure and routinely putt the lights out, the law of averages still say that a streak of that nature is mathematically impossible.  Is there any plausible explanation beyond institutionalized sandbagging throughout the club?

    • Interesting that Scottie is #10 on the all time money list and he's been on the PGAT for 4 years. Of course, purses are bigger now, but  neat to look at non-the-less.  The list of top 18 money winners in PGA Tour history has plenty of surprises This list is updated through the 2024 RBC Heritage. To add, Scottie won 4.5 million at the Players, Jack played 44 seasons and won a little of 5 million on course.
