Okay guys, I would really appreciate your comments and input on this topic.  And before I ask, I will say that I understand this is as much a matter of feel and preference, as it is proper club fitting technique.

First, I little about me.

I have played the game since the age of 7.  Played through high school and college as +1.  Now, with 2 kids, I play once a week and realistically play to probably a 7.   I am about 6'1" and 180 lbs with a smooth transition.  Tend to keep my back swing around 80% (a bit more compact for control) and typically hit my 7 iron 150.  If its windy, I might even hit a 6 to keep it down.

The most consistent club that I have put in my bag in a long time is my R9 4 wood- and here is what I think I like about it- the shaft is heavier than what I used to play.  I have a standard length, stiff, F1 Motore in 80g shaft.  This club is amazing straight, and it feels as solid as any club I have ever hit.  I then decided to trade my hybrid from a 65g to 80g shaft and started hitting that dead straight- and the feel is amazing.

Anyone feel the same way and made these changes?

Now for the big question.  I am thinking about changing the shaft in my Superfast TP (44.5"/D5) AND I am looking for KBS shaft options for my Mizuno MP 58/68 combos (+.5")

What would be a good weight in my driver that would match an 80g fairway club?  Anyone try the UST AATAS?

What weight shaft would you recommend in my irons (given I like the feel of the heaver shafts) without making them too heavy?

Your comments are GREATLY appreciated!!!
