I have a Titleist D2 driver with stock shaft. Problem is, its a regular flex and I wanted stiff flex. But I knew Id get a new shaft one day..

well I did a little research online and came across this Fujikura Rombax 5x07 shaft. Lighter weight shaft with high launch. Seems perfect for me. I have the Dynamic Gold Dynalite shafts in my irons. Something about the lighter weight I perfer...

anyone have one of these shafts? curious about your input

I don't personally have it but it's a great shaft. The Rombax series is Fuji's best tons of players on tour use them. 58 grams is a pretty light shaft but if you like light it should work well for you. They are pretty expensive shafts so you might want to get fitted to be sure first.

I recently purchased the Taylormade CGB Max Limited driver, and it came with this as one of the 3 shafts that you get with it. It is my favorite shaft so far. The lightness is perfect I think, and I'm like you and prefer the lighter shafts. The ball trajectory is exactly what I wanted. It's low to mid and very piercing. It's also the shaft that gives me best distance out of the 3 that came with it. It works for my swing, I hope it works good for you.

    • I have trouble with vertigo on occasion, but have gotten nutritional and biofeedback tips to keep it at bay. Dehydration can help trigger v-like symptoms so one recommendation, along with maintaining overall hydration, is to start with 8 oz. of water early in the morning. A meta-analysis on Golf As Physical Activity indicated that golf is rated as a moderately intensive physical activity. This scientific literature review came from the University of Edinburgh. The physical activity level ties into hydration. A former university colleague was a marathon runner who had published a couple of articles on endurance training. He likewise said that golf was a moderate physical activity especially when the round stretched past  the two-hour mark. For hydration he recommended switching from water to electrolyte drink on the back nine (past two hour point of exercise) to prevent cramping. At the two-hour point of moderate activity, water starts flushing electrolytes out of the body, which can lead to fatigue and cramping. (I have had trouble with leg cramps in the past during exertion.) During a round, I start out with water on the front nine and switch to sports drink on the back nine. If the day is unusually hot, I may drink 8 oz. of Pedialite concentrate before going to the course. Maintaining overall hydration plus on-course boosters keeps me going.
    • Personally I’d try booking direct first - either via the Vidanta golf reservations number/email or through the resort concierge - especially for Christmas/New Year. Vidanta’s main courses (Greg Norman and Nicklaus designs) are popular and can book out fast this time of year, so direct often gives you the best shot at your preferred tee times.
