which project x shaft is best to put in ping i0

[shotstop_10]

I got ping i10 and now I am wanting to reshaft and put project x shafts in them and which should I go with 6.0 or 5.5. I know I have demoed them and I love them I am just not sure which ones would be best for the pings. any help would be great I am using stiff flex AWT right now so just let me know what you think.

There isn't a certain shaft that works for a set of clubs, it's the shaft flex that fits you. You should go get fit to find out what frequency you need.

i feel being fitted is over rated i was just wondering what is the diffrents between the 6.0 and 5.5

6.0's are stiffer then 5.5, IIRC the 5.5's are but as close to a DG S300 as you can get standard from Rifle, and 6.0's are like in-between the DG S300 and DG X100

Close. I've always heard the DG S300 is about a 5.7, and the X100 is about a 6.2 or 6.3 or so.

So they're about equally spaced, really: 5.5, S300, 6.0, X100. You can hard or soft step some to close the gaps, too.

Okay, thanks for clearing that up. But could you order a set of, say AP2's, with 5.7 shafts in them?

Ask if they can softstep a 6.0 or hardstep 5.5 once or twice, same thing as getting a number between the lineup as has been said. But if you ask for 5.7 straight out, that you can not get as a direct product. However, hopefully if the person you talk to knows what he is doing, he will know how step them to get what you ask, like a fitter will ;)

You really should get fitted, ask around, it is not overrated. If anything, it is underrated. Could be that you need the shafts to be longer/shorter, could be that you need to alter the lie, could be that you want to slightly alter the loft on one or more of the clubs for higher/lower trajectory or more/less distance on that club.

Most stores offer a fitting where the cost of it is deducted from the ordering price, as such in a form it is free if you order from them. Does not cost anything extra to have a special order & as we just cleared up does not cost extra to get fitted if you go to the right place, so why not?

I have x100 in my AP2, they are basically as iacas says right in the middle of 6.0 & 6.5.
On a sidenote, if you have longer than regular shafts, they player softer. If you have shorter, they play harder.

I have been fitted before and it wasnt as good as I thought it could have gone. but by the time I was fitted to now I have changed my swing pattern and I have gain some distance so I have decided to change to the project x shafts

Just curious... what is your motivation to change shafts... what are you trying to accomplish?

[shotstop_10]

i hit my irons way too high for where I play and I am looking for a little more distance in my irons.

[Jay-Bird]

This should help:
6.0 are stiffer.
How far do you fly a six iron?

5.5 are lighter.

[shotstop_10]

according to that I may have got the 5.5 but I got the 6.0 instead but if cant and swing the 6.0 I will go with the 5.5. thanks for that information
