Reshafting Irons

[robbo323]

So I recently went to my demo day and I tested all the major OEM irons out. While I was there I found out that my PX 5.5s are to light for me so I need, well want, to reshaft my irons. I hit Dynamic Gold S300s pretty good and I also hit the X100s really good. The Rifle 6.0s where good but the 6.5s seemed like a little to much. I prefer a lower/medium ball flight and so I don't know if I should get some s300s or 6.0s. I am curious thought if any of you have reshafted some irons recently and about what it cost to do so?

You going to do it yourself of have someone else do it?

Most places charge like $20 per club for labor. Then you pay for the shaft and grip separately.

I've re-shafted my own clubs multiple times, and if you are handy, I'd recommend doing it yourself. Its really pretty easy with the right equipment. Getting the head off the old shaft is the hardest part, but its easy with the correct torch.

Dumb question I think. My 3 and 4 hybrid irons (Adams Tech OS) are set up for draw. Is there a way to reshaft the club and make them square or normal??

S300, smooth as silk

No, not with the shaft, the draw effect is in the head itself

Just had my clubs reshafted.... cost me $15 a club to have the S300's pulled and have the KBS Tours put in. The KBS's I bought were pul outs with new grips.

KBS Tours are excellent shafts, enjoy

Thanks, thats not the answer I was hoping for but thats okay just means I either need to learn to hit it without the draw or buy some new sticks

Thanks for all the replies guys. I hit some 6.0s yestreday at the range and even thought I wasn't hitting the ball good at all they just seemed to be really heavy towards the grip. I am gonna try the s300s and see how those feel. I just know I would be better off with a stiffer shaft and something a hair heavier.

Best thing to do is buy a normal driver and hit the range everyday for a month hitting at least 30+ balls, move the ball around, move your feet around, change your grip, etc... etc.... until you figure out what works for you, there is no correct swing, only your swing and making it square at impact, whatever you gotta do to make that happen is your correct swing

Unless you get paid to play golf, you won't notice a difference between the S300 and S400 shafts, just go right to the X100's

I hit the PX 5.5 for 2 years. I liked them, but I was inconsistant. I recently purchased new irons with X100 sensicore shafts. Theses shafts are heavy and 'STIFF'. So I reshafted (DIY) with S300, +1 on smooth as silk. These shafts are the bomb. If you are still interested I have the x100's in my garage (4-P).
