I am considering a set of Nike VR Full Cavity irons and I was looking for a bit of advice concerning possible shaft choices. I am looking at a mid launch shaft and the choices available are:

Mid:
  • TT Dynamic Gold HL
  • Precision Rifle (Nike)
Mid/High
  • Nike Speed Step (True Temper)
I really don't knoiw much about the differences between steel shafts, so I am just looking for some information about these choices...

Thanks!

Check out the web sites for these shaft makers. Lots of features for comparison:

* True Temper: http://www.truetemper.com/golf/ * Royal Precision: www.royalprecision.com/ * KBS: www.kbsshafts.com/ Others are out there too. Note: DG HL is a high launch, not a medium launch.

Focus, connect and follow through!

To be honest the DG high launch shaft doesn't send the ball really really high. I have this shaft in my split cavities, I see it more like a 'higher' launching shaft than the dynamic gold (which is a low launching shaft). The best way to choose your shaft is to get the numbers from the launch monitor if you can get fitted for them.

      Day 159 1-19 Flow drill while attempting to add arch in wrist on downswing. Not where it needs to be but felt good working on swing flow.

      Day 1 (19 Jan 26) - after a week lay-off due to travels, felt great to get in some drills in the backyard today.  Started with lead arm only short pitches focused on squared face and light divot post ball.  Haven’t done this in a while and it showed, with some skulls and slices.  Settled into easy flighted balls - wrapped up with standard two handed swings.  Good restart to the daily drills.

      That depends what you do within those two.  Are they your only options?   Check out Fit for Golf if you get a moment.  It's linked on the sidebar;  I did it for two years, stopped for a really bad reason, and I plan to get back to it soon.   Mike Carroll also has a great free podcast about a lot of topics in golf fitness.

      Day 19, 1/19.  Finished work in time to spend 25 minutes hitting balls (hit 15) indoors, off a mat, into the net.  Usual focus.

      Day 30 - 2026-01-19 Got 10 minutes in on the mat / net working on exagerrating movements I'm working on. And grip. Also worked with my friendly AI to summarize key negative tendencies I have so that I can build a personal checklist to follow. Will do more mirror work tonight.
