So at my home courses Pro Shop there is a brand new Cobra X speed with Aldila 65s Proto By You shaft for 300 dollars, and the man working there said that he would take both of my r7s straight up. Now one is a 425 and the other is a 460, and the 425 is about a 7.5/10, and the 460 is about an 8, so do you think im getting ripped off, or its a good deal?

Yeah, I mean if you didn't hit it as well as the r7 you obviously shouldn't get rid of the club.

well i have already hit it, and i hit it straighter, and longer. but if i do not end up liking it after a couple of rounds, i can sell it and get as much as i could of for the two r7s

    • Day 203 3-8  Focus on getting wider in backswing and reconnecting arm in downswing. With wider backswing reconnecting arm wasn't happening as well. Made some good progress. Hit foam balls.
    • Day 523 - 2026-03-08 Got some swings in after a Starter Set of lessons with two new-ish golfers. Downswing work almost exclusively.
    • Lets see, Kapalua, and any other course played on Maui, Hualalai, Koolina and the course where the LPGA now plays the Lotte, Poipu, St Andrews, and Ballyliffen. I think that's it, never chased it but sure do enjoy playing Kapalua, Koolina and Hualalai. Will
    • Updated feels Backswing 1. Knees stay at the same depth 2. Shift right 3. Right now it's imagining the hand path going right and up by raising the right arm. I imagine the hands holding the club while it is pointed up and behind me at my right shoulder.  4. Torso (belly) and hips stay facing forward.  Downswing 1. Mostly just straightening in combination with arms down behind me. I know my knees are bent, but it doesn't feel like much. It doesn't feel explosive because I am not going from a deeper squat.  2. Hands to right pocket or right foot. It should feel like my go down as my shoulders stay up. Stay taller. I don't need to use the body to get the club down. 
    • It also counts in my heart! Thank you
