hello!

i was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for a after market Driver shaft similair to the Fujikura Rombax 6W06 X-stiff. I am trying to check some new shafts out. I prefer lighter shafts but still extra stiff. Anyone have any recomendations for a shaft with spec similair to this one. I prefer lower ball flight, low spin. I will be putting it in a 909 D3 9.5*. I appreciate your ideas and help. Thanks!

When I went to the Maltby Clubfitting School last Oct..the instructors were raving about the Arthur Xtreme Engineering (AXE)Xcaliber Shafts, They were best shafts that Maltby had tested-bar none at any price. Either the Tour Graphite TS or the Xcaliber 7 TS would be great for you. I just ordered the Xcaliber 6 to put in my Nickent Evolver.

Launch monitor results from the Project X graphite shafts are about as good as it gets when it comes to low flight and low spin. I'd recommend the 6.5 version. However, some people don't like the feel so you may want to take that into consideration.

That said, why don't you just get a 6W06?

Hope that helps.

Not sure where you were looking but here are several links with new 6W06 shafts:

http://www.victorycustomgolf.com/products/186/shafts/fujikura-rombax-6w06.aspx

http://golfshaftdeals.com/product/fujikura-rombax-6w06-131.cfm

http://myclubmaker-com.securec5.hostek.net/product/fujikura-rombax-6w06-131.cfm

You can also call Fujikura directly and ask them what shaft would be similar.

Good luck.

      Live Updates from the range! Open the club face at address, and trust that you’re gonna be able to get the face in a good position at impact. I don’t have to feel like I have to keep the face open throughout the entire downswing. The swing feels much more free-flowing through impact. Difference in ball flight is that previously it would be a low to mid trajectory that starts straight and draw left, or slight pulls. New ball flight are high push draws.  It’s kind of stupid. I feel like it should slice off the planet. I look up and it’s maybe a slight push. 🤣 Some distant wedge feels. More weight on front foot. Keep weight on front foot.  Pivot around left knee. Solid contact all the time.

      Day 2:  I hit a bucket of balls this morning.  Not gonna lie, almost didn’t go since it was my first time going alone and it was a little intimidating.  I mostly hit with my driver (the last bit of balls was with my 7 iron).  The sun was in my face but I think the ones that had good contact with went the furthest yet (maybe 150 yards then a good roll?).  Once I switched to my 7, the first half of my balls were crap.  I’ve always hit my irons before my driver when practicing and done fine - does this make any difference or is it just because I’m so green?

      It's likely per "category" of clubs, so irons would be one category, wedges would be a category, driver a category, fairway woods/hybrid a category, etc. They aren't going to charge you $50 per iron for a fitting. Almost all iron fittings are done with like a 6 or 7 iron, fitters don't carry full sets of every iron. So yes, if you use a 7 iron for the fitting and let's say you get fit into the P790 with a certain shaft, 1 degree flat and .5" longer than normal you would just order the full set of P790s with that shaft/lie angle/length combination and you'll be perfectly fine.
