I understand that the Project X shafts are considerably lighter than True Temper shafts, but is there a difference in distance? I found that with Project X my distance was longer but is this just me or do Project X's play longer than their true temper counterparts?

If anyone has any insight I would really appreciate it.

All other things being equal, you will hit a lighter shaft farther, assuming the shaft is fine and you load it properly.

      Course Ratings and Slope, Difficulty, and Hole Stroke Index

      By Carl3 · Posted

      I think 95% is more accurate. The leader of our course rating program shot from the hip and said 90%, but I recently read elsewhere that it is more like 95%. So we spend 4 hours or more on a course with a team of 6 to 8 people to figure out the last few rating strokes as to whether they exist or not due to difficulty. I credit this site/forum for getting my interest up in volunteering for my state association. I am marshalling for the US Mid Am qualifier later this morning 15 min from my home. We get shirts, hats, 1/4 zips, a cart with our name on it, a radio, lunch and unlimited snacks all while watching some great golfers. 🙂

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      Day 2: August 12.  I did 25 balls of the ruler drill from LSW for putting.  24 of the 25 stayed on the ruler through 36" but some were smoother than others.  I suspect if the ruler (and goal) had been 48" far fewer would have stayed on.  I'm trying to go by sound, and not look, since when I attempt short putts, I don't want to look (although now I wonder if that's conventional wisdom that turns out to be wrong).
