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.

    • If you like golf podcasts, Hack It Out is tough to beat. Lots of interesting info and it's very funny.  Lou is one of the hosts along with Greg Chalmers and Mark Crossfield.  They love to give each other a hard time.  Lou catches most of it, but he takes it well and dishes out his fair share.  Great show.

    • Day 211: putting work today on my mat. Worked on some feels to get my head to move less. Contact was improving.
    • Day 9: 2/15/2025 Spent several 5-10 minutes sessions today working on what I learned from Yoda yesterday. Pretty much a new priority piece. 
    • Day 25 (15 Feb 25) - A little background on today’s drill session.  On the way to band rehearsal this morning I was listening to the guys on PGA Tour radio in the golf school segment and they got to talking about short game practice.  As I love working that part of the game, my ears perked up.  They were talking taking multiple clubs and doing pitches/chips from the same distance and learning how each flies the ball.  So today was the start of the 8P54 drill (8i - Pw - 54°).   Set it up to hit two balls with each club from the same lie to a set distance.  It really helps envision what I should see in each club.  A sweet new twist to a fave drill.
