I read somewhere that if you do not know what shafts to get, say between STIFF and REGULAR, then go with the REGULAR. Because if you get a shaft that is too stiff then there is no place for you to go. But have more leeway with a shaft with more flex.

FYI: I have never been fitted. I live in a place where there are no real golf fitting facilities. So in other words I'm in a bad spot. I would say I am pretty strong. But I don't think that equals getting a stiff shaft based on that point alone.

I'm tempted to buy this

It's probably not perfect. But might give me something to go on.

Q, if you don't have an idea of what rating shafts to get okay but when you swing a driver does it flex at all? If you are younger than 60

I venture a guess that less flex during a swing is going to give better potential accuracy.  Also most courses have demo drivers you can use for a round. try some and see which flex allows you to hit better.  Skip the medicus it is not worth it. And any golf shop that sells Mizuno clubs has the mizuno version that you can try.

It ain't bragging if you can do it.

OK, thanks for the info. I'll skip the medicus. And with my current driver I do get some flex.

    • Day 322: did the yardstick putting drill for a while. Gotta feel like I’m pulling the putt to keep it online. But good work at it. 
    • Given that I am an 8 and halving it would go to a 4, I don't really see the value in it.  Even if I went from a 16 to an 8, it wouldn't be much use.  I would definitely pick option 1 of a flawless swing, because that is more likely to help lower my score far more
    • There you go. Very simple stuff there. You have the videos in CoachNow, too, right?
    • Yeah. Nobody looks for a thing to "blame" for a good shot — they just give themselves all the credit. 🙂  They could have had the worst mental game/pre-shot prep in the world… but they'll skip over the post-shot evaluation. I know for a fact I've hit great shots thinking "oops, head dipped a bit, don't chunk it!" mid-swing.   Not really, because all that really might matter is the actual moments you're swinging the club. I disagree, unless your definition of "a lot" is wildly different than most everyone's.
