I have a set of these shafts ready to be installed in my Nike Pro Combo OS irons. I have the stock speed steps in right now and hit them good enough, but tend to get quick because of the weight I think. I play a ton of backspin and don't want to lose that and I've heard the DGs300 may take it away. I'm not one of those golfers that like spin because "pros do it", but I really have grown accustomed to utilizing it. I don't like hitting it high because the longer its int he air the longer it has to go offline especially now that the winter months are coming so I'm looking for a heavy shaft with a mid-low trajectory. Can this be achieved with the DGs300's?

I have always used DG S300's and i know no different. In terms of the amount of spin you will generate: i personally think from a 8-9 iron and lower, you shouldn't see any more/less spin. As spin in wedges is generally caused from a mixture of swing technique, ball used and more importantly, equipment.

You shouldnt see a drastic change in your wedges, however, expect to see a lower piercing trajectory in all of your irons. More importantly, you will hopefully be getting more consistant flex (because it is stiffer) and hopefully more consistant results. good luck.

      Driver and 3W Swing Weight Changes, Make Sense?

      By BananaBomber · Posted

      Thanks for the comments. I fully understand that these changes won't make any big changes compared to getting a flawless swing but looking to give myself the best chance of success at where I am and hopefully lessons will improve the swing along the way. Can these changes make minor improvements to ball striking and misses then that's fine, even if not significant. From what I understood about changing the grips, which is to avoid them slipping in warm and humid conditions, is that it will affect the swing weight since midsize are heavier than regular and so therefore adding weight to the club head would be required to avoid a change of feel in the club compared to before?

      I think part of it is there hasn't been enough conclusive studies specific to golf regarding block studies. Maybe the full swing, you can't study it because it is too complicated and to some degree it will fall into variable or random.

      Going one step stiffer in the golf shaft, of the same make and model will have minor impact on the launch conditions. It can matter, it is a way to dial in some launch conditions if you are a few hundred RPM off or the angle isn't there. Same with moving weights around. A clubhead weights 200-220 grams. You are shifting a fraction of that to move the CG slightly. It can matter, again its more about fine tuning. As for grip size, this is more personal preference. Grip size doesn't have any impact on the swing out of personal preference.  You are going to spend hundreds of dollars for fine tuning. Which if you want, go for it. I am not sure what your level of play is, or what your goals in golf are.  In the end, the golf swing matters more than the equipment. If you want to go to that level of detail, go find a good golf club fitter. ChatGPT is going to surface scan reddit, golfwrx, and other popular websites for the answers. Basically, it is all opinionated gibberish at this point.

      Well the first advice I would give is to look at your swing. If you are swing out to in, it may be difficult to fix your misses with club adjustments. They would only be a bandaid. I use midsize grips because I have long fingers and I feel I have more control with them. I also have tinkered with shaft length and swing weight. But I know when I miss it’s because my swing was off.
