Seems like everybody raves about Matrix Ozik shaft. For me the price is way too steep for a shaft.

For owners, is this shaft really that good?
Do you gain any real consistency and distance?
Is worth is to spend more than $200 for this shaft?

If you get professionally fitted and it is the shaft for you, then yeh, i guess so. But obviously there is no point buying it if it is not the shaft for you. Some of the people with that shaft on GOLFWRX have pictures of it posted in the WITB thread, instant drooooooling if you are a club nut.

The matrix ozik shaft comes in many models. There must be one that will fit my swing.

Sure, then get fitted if you want a matrix shaft. However, club fitters don't just fit for a specific shaft brand, they generally see your swing and analyse it or whatever they do, then they find the shaft to match your swing. It might not be a matrix ozik at all. I guess you could ask which matrix ozik is closest matching to your swing, but if they didn't suggest it in the first place, it wont be the best one for ya'.

I got fitted twice in 2006 and 2008. Back then Matrix Ozik is not well known by most clubmakers. Today they are like "Gucci".

My last driver had a Matrix Ozik Xcon6 in stiff, SST pured. I loved it, it is still my favorite driver shaft. I was almost ready to pull it out, but I got a nice offer on the driver and sold it as a whole, which still haunts me a bit. I occasionally find myself surfing ebay looking for pulls. The Fuji Rombax I have now is nice too, but it ain't no Xcon....

As for your questions...
1. In my case, yes, it was that good
2. I didn't really gain any distance over a couple of Fuji Speeders I had, but was definitely more consistent
3. Buy a pull, much cheaper

Two of the long ball hitters at my club use the Xcon6 in stiff. They are very good drivers and love the shaft in their Callaway Diablo tour drivers. I am speaking based on playing with them, and them having to wait for us on the tee because they can be extremely long.

I have the Matrix F7M2 in my driver, Altus for my 3&4 hybrids, and HM2 in a 16* hybrid and they are amazing.

But, they are only amazing because the characteristics of the shafts match my swing and desired ball flight/spin.

      Agree. The next omission needs to be that ridiculous team concept. Nobody cares about a team when they really don’t represent anything except being a group of diminished morality and/or washed up pro golfers. Or wait, we’ve also got total nobodies who’ve accomplished nothing who now get a participation trophy! Doesn’t that sound invigorating!

      LIV moving to 72 holes is a subtle admission that 54 holes was nothing but a joke all along.

      Is This Club Blatantly Sandbagging?

      By imsys0042 ·

      I was going to start a thread, but this seems like the place.  Yesterday I played my matchplay match at my local club.  My opponent is a notorious sandbagger by reputation.  The pro once pulled his tournament rounds from the past several years and said that it is impossible his tournament rounds are legit based on his handicap. here is what happened last night.  I am getting 4 shots from him.  His current handicap index is 15.3 i shot 45 on the front.   Was down 4 after nine, he had three birdies and shot even par. I was closed out on thirteen, we halved with a bogey.  That bogey put him one over par for his round.   He then took a triple on 14 and then left. As if that wasn’t bad enough, he lied about his score.   I wrote down on my scorecard what the score was.  He put higher values that didn’t affect the outcome of the match to pad his score and apparently make it not look as obvious.   He shot 36 on the front, but claimed 40.  The higher values for his score were in the online scoring app our club uses.  He did it this way: I won #7. He had a 2 foot putt for par that if he made would still lose the hole.   He picked up and said it didn’t matter since I won.  He took a 5 instead of a 4 after picking up a gimme. on #8 his approach shot on this par 4 was 8 inches.  I verbally conceded the putt but I had hit into a hazard.  I finished the hole with a 6.  Instead of birdie he put in for par. on #9, another par 4, his approach was to 18 inches.  I missed my par putt and then knowing how close I verbally conceded the putt.  I missed my bogey putt, he never conceded mine.  Instead of birdie he put down a bogey. He padded his score by 4 shots on the front.  And then did again on 10.  I rinsed one and made 6 on a par 4.  I putted out and he was fishing balls out of the lake so I drove off to the next tee.  He had 15 feet laying two but claimed a 5.     love to know the odds of a 15 handicap being even thru 12 holes on a round of golf.

      They've been chuckling since they hooked the shark. I think Greg doesn't realize the jokes on him.
