Hi all,

Try and find a place local to you that has a launch monitor. More info is needed other than ball flight. Swing Speed, ball speed, launch angle, and tons of other info is given to you in front of a launch monitor.

I would check out the ProLaunch Red, Aldila NV, and if you want to spend a lot the Mistubishi Fubuki, or the Diamana Whiteboard.

Here's what I play:

Titleist 907 D2 10.5* UST ProForce V2 76-S | Titleist 906F4 18.5* Aldila VS Proto "By You" 80-S | Titleist 585H 21* Aldila VS Proto "By You" 80-S | Titleist ZB 4-PW TTDG S300 | Bob Vokey Spin Milled Oil Can 54.10 | Bob Vokey Spin Milled Oil Can 60.08 | Scotty Cameron Red X5 33" |

Bingo.

Also, to lower your ball flight, you will want to check into the shaft's kick point.

Hi all,

I agree with other posters, go to a place that has a launch monitor and different shafts to try. With that said, if you want to lower the ball flight look at tip stiff shafts like the V2, but be warned that you can't have a whimpy, wussy or partial swing with these babies. Oh, in regards to your ball flight, if you are 6' or taller you will naturally have a higher ball flight b/c the swing plane is a little steeper.

    • Day 18: 2026.01.20 Continuing work on arm raise during backswing. Starting to feel less weird, especially the slower I go. Looking like a busy week so might be the weekend before I can hit some balls.
    • It’s possible the graphite shaft has a small internal crack or a delamination. Tapping it and hearing a vibrating sound is usually a sign the shaft isn’t behaving as it should. Since the store wasn’t helpful, consider taking it to a club fitter or a pro shop that can check the shaft flex and integrity. If it’s defective, you might be able to get a replacement from the manufacturer.
    • It’s interesting how much a 3D system changes your understanding. Observing top players in full detail and realizing the trail knee shouldn’t fully extend is a great example of why being open to new info is so important. I like your approach: not trying to be “right,” but trying to teach correctly based on actual evidence. Makes sense why golfers would benefit from this perspective.
    • I would say both are equally not the best for golf. Is it better than nothing, sure.  Golf is an athletic motion. Professional golfers are doing a comprehensive workout routine focusing on strength, power, flexibility, stability. They might include some yoga into the routine. I would put both of them in the recovery bin, not golf enhancement bin.  If you want to increase swing speed, core strength, longevity in golf and life, then lift heavy weights.
