DG 300 instead of graphite

[Gerald]

I am thinking of putting a Dynamic Gold shaft in my Titleist 909 H 17. I demoed it with the Diamana stock shaft in Regular, ordered it with the stock Voodoo in Stiff.

I feel the Dynamic Gold, might add more control and a lower trajectory ..... any thoughts ?

CU, Gerald.

i actually feel the opposite. with the advanced graphite technology these days, i find newer graphite shafts to add much more consistency and control and not at the cost of my swing either.

I played my Callaway x-tour 3 wood with steel shaft for several months before I tried out the TItleist 909F3 with voodoo and I went with it right away. Trajectory is just perfect for what i'm looking for and definitely no loss of control.

I don't think you would like it. The weighting will be all over the place. That shaft is almost 130g, and any hybrid graphite will be in the 80-100 range. The head is much lighter than a regular iron so it won't play nearly as the same as an iron. It sounds good in theory, but there is a reason they put graphite in all of the hybrids.

If that is a club that you hit 215 yards, with a steel shaft I would guess you would be lucky to hit it 200 consistently. There are plenty of graphite shafts that will do what you want without sacrificing the distance and control.

I agree - at least that's how it works for me. I've always played steel shafts in all of my woods and hybrids. I probably give up something in distance, but can hit the steel clubs where I am aiming (which I have always found is very helpful when playing golf).
