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.

"Keep it in the short grass."

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.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      Contact is getting better. Swing path is still too inconsistent. Pushes and over draws. Sometimes some pull draws. I got to get this downswing path figured out.

      The Greatest Swing Ever

      By ChetlovesMer · Posted

      It's really hard to argue against the Tiger Woods 2000 swing.  I like Rory's swing. And, I've always liked Joaquin Niemann's swing. Although, if I tried to mimic Niemann's swing I'd probably end up in traction for 2 months. I was kinda bummed when he went to LIV cuz I almost never see it anymore.  At the other extreme, I can't look at Bryson when he plays. Even if it's very effective, it's coyote-ugly to watch.  I'd rather watch Charles Barkley than Bryson. ....

      I think he was always kind of like that - he hit it off the planet relatively frequently throughout his career. I saw him play a couple of times. One time at Walton Heath in the European Open. He was playing the 13th on the Old (dogleg right par 5) and his drive had gone through the fairway and found a patch of grass in the woods there to the left (the woods have now gone). He had an opening to play back to the fairway. Maybe 25 yards to reach the fairway and 65 yards to run through the other side. He was maybe 230 yards away from the green, but the trees made sure that was not a viable option (at least that's what I thought at the time). He pulled out a pretty long iron - probably a 3 and gave it a full blooded thrash. I watched this ball come out straight for about 40 yards and then it just turned hard left, but stayed in the air (still not sure how he did that). He started the ball at a point that must have been 100 yards right of the green and hooked it basically that whole 100 yards and the ball wound up on the front of the green.  Shotmaking he was pretty much peerless. Not sure his swing was ever technically solid. Flowing and fun to watch yes, but not one you'd want to copy.  As to the question, I have heard a few people suggest that Mickey Wright had the best swing ever. Frank Nobilo had a pretty sweet looking one. Bruce Lietzke's was pretty cool - he managed to maintain PGA Tour playing rights with basically little to no work on his game - got to be a lot said for that.
