There are so many factors to consider, that one cannot even begin to answer this question with a simple answer. The best for me is Project X flighted. The most used on tour is still DG. I previously used DG and rifles in my irons, and the PX shafts are better suited for my swing (medium launch, flatter trajectory). I have also heard good things about Nippon shafts. Sorry to give a cliche answer, but you either have to get fitted or learn from experience.

IMO...Project X no question, the trajectory control and ball control in general is unreal I would not have anything but project x

As has been said, there is no "best" steel shaft, only the most suited to you. DG S300 was perfect for me, i hit the ball high, and the prject shaft didn;t help me at all, it just ballooned and i lost distance and accuracy as a result, the nippon was even worse! But that was just me.

Go out and try them all on the same club to get a feel for the best one!

    • Is it? I bought the Stack radar to replace my PRGR based on what Stack told me! When I am swinging for speed, the PRGR would miss 50%-80% of my backswings due to a higher speed. The stack seldom misses those- at least for me.
    • As an analyst by nature, I would like to compare the scores under both systems. It is something we can easily do if we have the data. I actually thought the new system was less fair to those whose game was on the decline - like mine! Old: Best 10 of last 20 scores with the .96 multiplier. Course handicap excluded course rating and overall par. New: Best 8/20. Course handicap includes course rating -par. My understanding is Stableford caps scores at Net double bogey like stroke play. If so, handicap should be slower to rise because you are only using 8 versus 10 scores. If I am missing something, I am curious enough to  want to understand what that may be. My home course tees that I play are 72.1/154 now. My best score out here is 82. When my game started to decline, my handicap didn’t budge for 13 rounds because of good scores in my first 8! I know I am an anomaly but my handicap has increased almost 80% in the past few years (with only a few rounds this year). For a few months I knew I was losing every bet because my game was nowhere near my handicap. I suspect I have steamrolled a few nuances but that shouldn’t matter much. When I have modeled this with someone playing the same tees and course, one good round, or return to form, will immediately reduce the handicap by some amount.
