Hey all,

3 weeks ago I retired my 975J 7.5* with a graffaloy pro-lite elite, and moved on to a 907 D2 9.5* with a Nippon N.S. Pro Tour shaft .

I am still questionable with the Nippon shaft, but the deal I got for the club couldn't be beat, and I have always loved Titleist drivers.

So my questions too people playing the 907D2, 905R, or anyone else with an opinion... What shaft are you using? how does it play? any other comments?

My swing speed 105-115 roughly, play a hard inside out/draw swing. roughly 280+ off the tee, give or take some yardage if not struck well... (used to be consistently longer, but i'm even getting a little old and out of shape )

Current Shaft: http://www.nipponshaft.com/graphite_tour65.html
- seems to be a good shaft. nippon is a big steel shaft dealer, but i don't know about the graphite. from my research and play, this is a high performance shaft, and its pretty darn stiff.

if you have any other questions to me, please ask!

DRIVER - 907D2 9.5
3 WOOD - FIRESOLE
IRONS - TA3
WEDGES - 52,56 60
PUTTER - WHITE HOT

your swing speed is high--consider an x-tra stiff shaft

"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."

LSU,

My swing speed is a little lower than yours: 100-105 MPH. I'm currently using an Accra SC75 M4 shaft. This is a stiff shaft with a lower torque and made for players with an aggressive swing. Somewhat heavy, close to 80 grams. This might be a shaft that would interest you.

It has performed better, for me, than any of the Aldilas I tried-By You and NV, series. Price is reasonable compared to other high end shafts: $180.

    • New clubs came in this morning and I happened to be working in the area so I picked them up. PING G430 Max 3W (-1.5°) with PING Tour 2.0 Black 75, X-Stiff at -1/2" PING G430 3H with PING Tour 2.0 Chrome 85, X-Stiff Those replace my old fairway wood and hybrid, making all 14 clubs in my bag fitted. I'm going to need new excuses for bad shots 😜
    • Ooh, I don't know about that. I've hit flop shots that are 6-7° down. The more you widen the spin loft the less ball speed you put into the ball.
    • Re: your graphic, ‘ I expected a little more from a varsity letterman.’ Lol…just another one for @boogielicious
    • Can't brag about a 50 last night but it was the best round of my season (4 rounds of 9 holes) so I am not as upset as I could be.  One thing I am noticed is that I got a little more confident in my long hybrids and I attempted a couple longer shots that typically I would just lay up and those holes were a big part of the lower score.  Not every shot was great but good enough that they helped.  I even shot par on a Par 5 after taking a drop.  On that hole I would usually lay-up to @ 100 yards and often miss the green altogether with my 3rd shot (or worse chunk my approach and put it in the waste area).  Yesterday I went for it from @ 200 yards out with wind in my face and landed in the waste area short of the green.  My drop left @ 40 yards in and I stuck it to 3 feet for my par putt.  If I had laid up I would have avoided the penalty stroke but likely would not have been on the green in regulation and may still have been working for par.  By going for it I gave myself a chance at birdie and still saved par. I do not plan on being crazy aggressive but I think I tend to be too conservative at times so I will "go for it" a little more often going forward. 
    • Day 14 (15 May 24) - Worked with the SW in the backyard, short pitches from 10yds up to 30yds.   Focused on ball placement in stance - ball back, ball forward, ball center.  Afterwards moved to inside the shop to work on putting pace on the rug - putting one way gives about an 8' putt, going the other a 6' before bumping onto the adjacent rug.  Focused there on the line - picking a target point about 18"-24" out and making sure the ball rolls through that point.
