Project X 6.0 v.s. Dynamic Gold S300

[TempoIsKey]

I currently play the PX 6.0 shafts and have no complaints at all. I was just thinking about trying out some Mizuno MP-57's and most seem to come with DG S300 shafts. Any of you guys got any insight about the differences between the two shafts. Thanks in advance.

the s300 will be a little softer and find they fly a bit higher

PX is a lighter shaft that launches the ball higher. DG is a heavier shaft at 130g and has a flatter trajectory. I personally like the DG better because you feel the weight of the club and easier for me to "drop it in the slot." People say the PX has a longer carry, but I haven't noticed a difference.

Having played both for some time in the last three years, I settled back on the DGs. The PXs seemed dead feeling in my case, just a little less punch and not quite the same kick point I like. Of course I have played DGs a lot more than any shaft, so it could be familiarity made the difference. Another guy I play with, who is much better than I am, tried the PXs, and he also switched back to DGs. Some like PX, others don't -- sorry no help.

i can compare the px 5.5 to the dynamic golf s300 and the project x gave me a higher ball flight and about 5 yards longer carry. the s300 is quite a bit heavier than the px 5.5 so it gives a more boring trajectory

well the px is a little stiffer and launches higher.personally since i have a high ball flight the dg is a better shaft for me.sorry no help here its just personal preferance.

I've got the Project X 6.0s in my MP57s and they are fantastic. I get plenty of height and distance with them, and don't notice them flying on a flatter trajectory relative to the DG S300s (which is have in my 67s). My SS is about 102-105 with driver, with a pretty quick transition, and the 6.0s are just right for me. I've got 6.5s in my travel set of X-forged, and those are a little lower-flying, but 6.0 is a nice balance. If you want it to go higher, just swing harder.

I concur. I hit the PX 6.0 on a set of TM r7 TPs for a while. Got my high ball flight under control. Nice launch profile. The dg s300s might get you hitting higher. Hit them in for a club fitter into a screen to find out how it will work for you.

Looking at this thread, I am seeing half the folks saying the Project X 6.0 will fly the ball higher and the other half saying the same thing about the DG S300. I'm a little consued.

There is more that goes into trajectory than just the type of shaft. The clubhead design and individual swing characteristics also affect the ball flight. Like many people say, you have to hit them and see which performs best for you. I am a high ball hitter (not ballooning) and I get about the same height from DG's, PX's and SGI shafts I have hit.
