Have any of you guys played both these iron shafts? I currently use the project x 7.0's but I'm thinking of getting new irons and may change shafts. Have high swing speeds obviously and need something similar. Always heard the x7's were comparable.

What did you find at a fitting? Have you gone to one and tested both shafts out? The combo of shaft and head will matter.

Only time I was fitted was back in 2013 but those shafts/driver etc don't work for me anymore. Actually the only time I went back and hit on a monitor with my old KBS shafts my 7 iron spin was over 10k. So I switched to project x 7.0 shafts on my own feeling and my ball flight stopped ballooning immediately. I like these shafts alot actually. My current irons are Callaway X hot Pro's and I just want to switch to something newer and wouldn't mind trying the X7's for comparison sake. Problem is none of the fitters have these shafts in stock to just try out. For reference I can go over 140 mph on driver speed so most things in stock do me no good.

Just an update, I picked up a used set of 2021 p790's and put X7's in them. So far I like them. Shafts feel good to me. Maybe little less spin than the 7.0's. Thumbs up for me. Side not the 790 heads are definitely little hotter.

    • Day 430 - 2025-12-04 Slow motion backswings (with chippy shots) with AlmostGolf balls.
    • Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.  
    • Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.
    • Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
