The MX-25 heads are already "flighted" based on the variable location of the mass so I don't know that getting flighted shafts is the best idea. I got my MX-25's with the Dynamic Gold SL shafts because I did not want the higher trajectory provided by the Dynalite SL but did want the light weight. The DGSL shafts are great!

Would you say that getting the flighted rifles on the MX-25s would be detrimental to the point of lost distance? Would the ball just balloon too much? I've been thinking about getting the MX-25s with the flighted rifles since my ball flight is relatively low. I'm using TTDG w/ Sensicore right now.

The "Project X" flighted shafts will rise to the point they're designeds to rise to, flatten out and land very softly.

If you're a flat/low ball stiker, then I think you'll really enjoy them and you will greatly benefit.

Are the Project X flighted that much better than the standard flighted shafts? Or rather, is the extra value derived worth the difference in price? Thanks.

To be honest with you I don't think that you and I, at 12's & 15's, are going to notice that much f a difference to warrant the cost of these shafts.

If you can purchase irons with these shafts already on them, like the Callaway X-20 Tours and X-forged, then it's a bonus, but I think the Dynamic Golds and many others for that matter will suit us fine. You may want another opinion, but I hope that helps.

I am also a high trajectory hitter as well. I am looking at the MX-25s, what is your swing speed? Want to see if these shafts would work well for me as well.

Man, I'm going to get grilled for this, but...

I refuse to play any make/model of any club manufacturer that has not been played on tour at some time.

I know a scratch player that plays MX-25 irons and has kicked my ass.

A regular golf playing partner of mine plays MX-17 irons and he's a good player of almost the same ability as that MX-25 dude.

IMHO, I don't notice any "eyesight" difference between the MX-25, 23, 17, and the rest of the "whatever" Mizuno "fat-iron" club selection. They be fugly.

They all look the same and are available at the same prices...

      Dr. Raymond Prior and Block vs. Random Practice (The Spin Axis Podcast)

      I think part of it is there hasn't been enough conclusive studies specific to golf regarding block studies. Maybe the full swing, you can't study it because it is too complicated and to some degree it will fall into variable or random.

      Driver and 3W Swing Weight Changes, Make Sense?

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Going one step stiffer in the golf shaft, of the same make and model will have minor impact on the launch conditions. It can matter, it is a way to dial in some launch conditions if you are a few hundred RPM off or the angle isn't there. Same with moving weights around. A clubhead weights 200-220 grams. You are shifting a fraction of that to move the CG slightly. It can matter, again its more about fine tuning. As for grip size, this is more personal preference. Grip size doesn't have any impact on the swing out of personal preference.  You are going to spend hundreds of dollars for fine tuning. Which if you want, go for it. I am not sure what your level of play is, or what your goals in golf are.  In the end, the golf swing matters more than the equipment. If you want to go to that level of detail, go find a good golf club fitter. ChatGPT is going to surface scan reddit, golfwrx, and other popular websites for the answers. Basically, it is all opinionated gibberish at this point.

      Driver and 3W Swing Weight Changes, Make Sense?

      By boogielicious · Posted

      Well the first advice I would give is to look at your swing. If you are swing out to in, it may be difficult to fix your misses with club adjustments. They would only be a bandaid. I use midsize grips because I have long fingers and I feel I have more control with them. I also have tinkered with shaft length and swing weight. But I know when I miss it’s because my swing was off.
