I am in the market for a new driver and new fairway metal. I am going to purchase the 905 driver and the 904F fairway metal. What is the difference between these two shafts. I currently have the 983 driver and 980F fairway metal with the Aldila shaft. I was considering purchasing the speeder shaft and wanted to know the difference between the two.

The 905 is a little stiffer at the tip, so try to match the playing characteristics of your current shaft with that in mind. So, go with a slightly softer tipped shaft with otherwise similar characteristics, I'd say.

For the 980 to 904, keep your current shaft. I actually went from an S300 in my 980 to my YS-6F in my 904, and it took awhile to get used to. But having hit a few shots with the YS-6F in the 980, they play nearly identically. The improvements in the 904 are solely in the clubhead with no discernable effect on shaft.

      Day 59: just a short bit of mirror work and foam balls. Working on the leg stuff throughout the swing.

      Day 601 - 2026-05-25 Short-ish day with only some later Skillest lessons, so I stayed after and got some swings in. GEARS Hybrid was set up for a lefty, so… not that. 🙂

      Day 21, May 25.  Hit "the whole bucket" as practice today after reviewing my Skillest lesson.  I think something crept into my swing last week that wasn't in the lesson, so I went back to the lesson and renewed my focus.  Each ball was a minute or so, 2-3 slow rehearsal backswings and checking the mirror for how far back I was going. "The whole bucket" means every ball I have in the bin at my indoor practice room;  I counted when I put them back, that's six dozen plus six total.  That is probably more full swings than I took over the weekend (excluding range warm-ups) in two rounds!  But these were all with a 6-iron.

      Day 265 5-25 Hit some balls just to see where i was, no "thoughts' except getting arms in front. Did some recording where i focused on getting chest through and arms in front.

      Day 76 (25 May 26) - Broke out the "vintage" clubs (MacGregor blades, Wilson 4150 laminates) to work with clubs that are much less forgiving.  Worked through the bag using hard foam balls for the full swings, regular balls for the chips and pitches.  Found it to be a more focused session on making consistent contact.
