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!

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.

    • Day 170: 6/10/24 Indoor chipping. Taking it easy on my right elbow.
    • Day 88. Two 10 minute sessions working on full swing technique into the net. Didn’t feel great. Not sure if I’m just off today or if it was because I’m learning to move slightly differently, which would be a good thing. 
    • Did chest and shoulders today. I'm really enjoying how this mass building workout is getting me to feel so much stronger. I've gone up in weights on most lifts quicker than I have in previous workouts. While my goal is really to get more fit overall, lean muscle mass will go a long way towards reaching that. I really want to start the couch to 5k running program as well.  I had done that once many years ago and it just stripped fat off of me. Even losing close to 100 pounds the last couple of years, my belly is still soft and protruding a bit.  Going to try and play 9 on Wednesday but a few things need to fall into place for that to happen. Hope I can continue the better ball striking I experienced my last time out. Details to come lol. 
    • I am a little late on the posting of this topic, but with the big event almost here I thought it would be interesting to explore. In late April, we hosted a local qualifier and the FSGA came out on behalf of the USGA on 2 occasions to scout tees and pin positions (they had notes from the last one 6 years ago). The course ended up playing just under 7000 and they did bump down some of the par 3s to play at 210, 205, 185, and 170 (they can all be from 195-230). They wanted the greens fast, but not US Open fast (I think they wanted 10.8 to low 11s). The FSGA guys picked the pin placements and made sure it was a good balance for a very great test of golf. The medalist was -3, three were -1 and even par got you into a playoff.  How do you think your course would hold up to pros showing up to show off their skills to go to the next stage?  Here is a video highlighting one person's experience followed by a few photos of Tiger scoping out the course with Charlie during his practice round. All in all, it was a great day and I felt that the course held its own as only 4 golfers (out of 80) broke par.  
    • This is critically important! It's easy to get lazy and start guessing. Just start over and get it right.
