If youre happy with what youre getting with the DG's then stick with them. But i think AP2's come stock with Rifle 5.5 shafts. I used DG's in my previous set of irons, and switching over to the rifles was a nice surprise. I get more of a boring tragetory with the AP2 - rifle 6.0 combo.
THE WEAPONS CACHE..

Titleist 909 D2 9.5 Degree Driver| Titleist 906f4 13.5 degree 3-Wood | Titleist 909 17 & 21 degree hybrid | Titleist AP2 irons
Titleist Vokey Wedges - 52 & 58 | Scotty Cameron Studio Select Newport 2 Putter | ProV1 Ball

6.0 is stiffer and 5.5 I play 6.0's in my ap's and I love them.
Ive never played DG shafts but I believe their right in the middle of stiffness
between the 5.5's and 6.0's somewhere around 5.7

The Project X 5.5 is the stock shaft but you can get whatever you want in them. I doubt that DG would be an upcharge, since the cost of that shaft is less than the PX (I wouldn't swear to that, just a guess). Titleist has a nice fitting cart system that many courses have. See if their is one in your area and you should be able to try out 5-6 different shafts and flexes.

I will judge my rounds much more by the quality of my best shots than the acceptability of my worse ones.

    • That was a good watch. When I started working on pelvis in the backswing. I thought, this sounds contradictory to those leg straightening threads on the site. Erik has already done a correction. Then the last lesson we went more down the route of feeling the right knee gains flex. It doesn’t, but the feeling keeps my knee position in a good range. Also, I just realized how much extra work my right hip needed to do to stabilize the body with the proper weight shift. Those glute and hip stabilizers got worked. 🤣 I wish this evolution in the golf instruction happened 20 years ago! 😭
    • I've been Playing Golf for: 40 yrs My current handicap index or average score is: 4.0 factor My typical ball flight is: Straight however sometimes slight draw. The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: squirt to the right due to to much arm not enough turn.

    • The first issue Erik spoke about is something we worked on for my swing during both GEARS sessions. GEARS was showing my pelvis center moving towards the ball during the back swing. I wasn’t the 4” guy though! This forced me to correct on the downswing to give myself space. My hip rotation was to high as well. We corrected it by first getting the weight off my heels in my stance and getting my posture correct. Then the feel was shifting back into my right hip at a 45 degree angle. This kept my pelvis center from moving towards the ball at the start of the backswing. I also didn’t sway back as much as I felt I did because of the angle I was shifting. Feel Ain’t Real. The cool thing about GEARS is as you work on something you can see the exact (Real) change happening. On video, it is much harder to spot this issue because of the 2D nature of filming. But I know what to look for now. Sadly, I was hurt all last year and most of this year so I really haven’t been able to work on it much. I did do a lot of backswing work though.
