In the r7 425 and the r7 460-------How would you rate this shaft...I was going to get my r7 425 reshafted but someone told me the REAX was a very good shaft and i should just keep it on...any comments

"People think the size of the head is most important. Wrong. It's getting a quality shaft. test different shafts to see which goes the straightest. Also, more degrees of loft on the head is better than less. Eleven degrees is about right."

If you have played with the club and liked the shaft feel and results I wouldn't change without a specific reason. I feel this is a good quality shaft. If you need more distance or need to bring you ball flight down a little there may be other options but I felt my accuracy with this shaft was well above average.

The shaft ain't bad, but there is better shafts out there for you. This shaft just decreases the ovaling of the club though impact due to the larger clubheads. Getting a better shaft depends on your perfered trajectory, for example i bought the stiff ProForce V2 75g shaft because it had a high kick point, allowing a more boaring trajectory. But if you want a higher trajectory got for a middle or low kick point in the shaft.

Whats in my bag:
Driver: r7 Superquad 9.5 with stiff ProForce V2 75g
Wood: r7 Steel 4 wood stiff stock shaft
Hybrid: 3DX ironwood 3 with stiff Aldila NV Hybrid shaft
Irons: r7 with Project X 6.0 +1"Wedges: 52, 56, 60 spin milledPutter: Rossa Corzina

    • You still got to lift your arms. You basically just roll your wrist over in the 1st half of the backswing.   
    • Day 288 6-17 Low point control without ball. hit quite a few swing where i was wanting the club to hit the ground.  Added a ball with towel behind it, just to see where im at. Wasn't horrible but need some more work. Pretty much full speed swings. 
    • Current state of the program.  I can only do 25-50% swing speed, probably under 50% since I was hitting the ball out to the 150 yard marker (yay!),  to get the arms down and somewhat turn the body through impact. I mean somewhat. Arms down + body turn don't like to mesh at all. Anything faster and the body does stupid uncoordinated stuff. Mostly, I am stuck in the old pattern of staling the turn and flipping at the ball.  So, until I see progress. I am not posting anything here. 
    • Thanks for the video! Do you think a ball between the arms type of training aid would get me in a better position? I also have a Tour Striker Swing Trainer (PlaneMate-like contraption) if that could be helpful.    
    • There are some little things here and there — the shoulder turn is a bit flat, and the arms move around you a bit too much too. Take a look at this video:
