Hello all,

So while at the driving range today, I was pounding my three wood, were talking 270 from the deck. I mean clobbering it. It has a legit X Matrix F7M2, which is a lower launching shaft. Then i pull out the Driver, and am hitting just a variety of shots, Left, right, High, Low, All over. The Altus is a pretty low spin, high launch shaft, and mine, while it says strong flex, is CPM wise pretty much a Stiff flex. It plays a bit shorter than average, like 44.25, and the thing feels like absollute mush..

3 wood- http://www.matrixshafts.com/ozik_xcon_special_m2.html

Driver http://www.matrixshafts.com/ozik_xco...ial_altus.html

So my question is, Should i move to a Stiffer shaft? My SS is probobly 105-110, so according to Matrix, i should be in the X range.. but im not sure how those speeds corrolate to other comanies, as i really, really, dont want another high launch shaft, So heres what im thinking,

Either a 907D2, G10, or L4VX, shafted with,

Diamana WB 63X, or 75S, Matrix F6M2 in X.

Any thoughts on these set ups?

Thanks in advance,

Brian

FT-5 I mix, the way to go for best combos, that way you can try all of them right there.... They had the whiteboard (sick shaft, i know). Plus, with the new heads coming out, you'll be able to upgrade for less expensive.

Miller,

What weight is your WB? The WB is just so freakin smoothe feeling, i am right now thinking of a WB 63X in a Titty D2 8.5, get some spin with a low launch.

And as to the fitting, I really, really cannot go to my Local GS anymore.. The guy told me that i fitted best to a 13 degree head with a Regular flex Aldila NV..With a SS upward of 100.. Dont trust them anymore.

    • Day 23: weird day, and only had a little bit of time. Just did mirror work again, working on where the elbow is in the downswing 
    • I flipped over to this tonight and thoroughly enjoyed it. Anyone else watch? I picked it up during the golf relay event, but seeing these pros out having fun in alternative events was refreshing and entertaining. I’m sure it will be on in reruns in the next week or so, so I won’t spoil the outcome. Im curious what others thought of it. I’m recording it’s later airing to see the beginning. 
    • Day 443 - 2025-12-17 Made a few swings in testing some things out at another academy. Might pop up on someone else's podcast in a few weeks.
    • Day 37 (17 Dec 25) - nine hole round with my good friend.  We got paired up with a couple of the men’s group regulars as part of their shootout.  Started off with a wonderful quad bogie and then a dbl on three to be six over thru three holes.  Game went 180° over the next five as I shot one under (including a chip in birdie on hole six and four up and down 1 putt pars) for a net finish of five over. What could have been a really tough nine became a solid finish due to staying in the moment and not checking out.  Great day in course management and keeping perspective .
    • Day 127 12-17 Backswing and flow practice. Took advantage of the 60 degeee weather(it was 20 degrees Sunday)
