I recently purchased a Maltby CT250 8° head, and I am trying to decide what shaft to put in this. I currently play a 9.5° TM Superquad with a VS Proto Stiff. My ball flight with my current set up is a mid to high draw. I bought this head to get my flight down, but I don't want it low. So I was thinking of getting a mid to high launching shaft.

Am I way off with my thinking? I know it is hard to suggest shafts, heads, etc. with out seeing my swing and LM stats. I do know my average swing speed is 104 mph.

any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have a similar swing speed but use a higher lofted head. I still like the NVS stiff shaft that I stupidly got rid of (and the Rapture it was in) and currently am liking the BB Soltuions 130 stiff shaft. I'm getting a SK Fiber stiff flex for my BUL (see sig) since they are cheap and supposed to be excellent. I like a softer tip shaft. Lot's of choices out there.

what was your ball flight with the NVS compared to the BB solutions? What are the flight characteristics of the BB solutions? low/mid/high?

Quote since you bought a maltby head why don't you take a look at the shafts offered in their catalogue. They are rated by kick point, torque, tip stiffness and player category.

My ball flight with the NVS was mid-high. With the BB Solutions (rated as mid-launch) silmilar but not "quite" as high. More penetrating and rolls out nice.

    • Is it? I bought the Stack radar to replace my PRGR based on what Stack told me! When I am swinging for speed, the PRGR would miss 50%-80% of my backswings due to a higher speed. The stack seldom misses those- at least for me.
    • As an analyst by nature, I would like to compare the scores under both systems. It is something we can easily do if we have the data. I actually thought the new system was less fair to those whose game was on the decline - like mine! Old: Best 10 of last 20 scores with the .96 multiplier. Course handicap excluded course rating and overall par. New: Best 8/20. Course handicap includes course rating -par. My understanding is Stableford caps scores at Net double bogey like stroke play. If so, handicap should be slower to rise because you are only using 8 versus 10 scores. If I am missing something, I am curious enough to  want to understand what that may be. My home course tees that I play are 72.1/154 now. My best score out here is 82. When my game started to decline, my handicap didn’t budge for 13 rounds because of good scores in my first 8! I know I am an anomaly but my handicap has increased almost 80% in the past few years (with only a few rounds this year). For a few months I knew I was losing every bet because my game was nowhere near my handicap. I suspect I have steamrolled a few nuances but that shouldn’t matter much. When I have modeled this with someone playing the same tees and course, one good round, or return to form, will immediately reduce the handicap by some amount.
