So I had my Proforce V2 tipped with the Amp Cell adapter.  It was very helpful because I was able to keep changing shafts for a good comparison.  With the V2, I was more inconsistent, but I was hitting pulls and some low hooks with it.  I did not do that at all with the other 2 shafts.  I also had a Graphite Design Orange AD-6 S-flex which I was hitting similar to the stock shaft (mostly fades with the occasional straight ball).

But, given that the V2 was over-correcting my problem, what characteristics do you think would have most contributed to it?  Heavier weight (76g vs 60g stock), lower torque (2.1 vs 3.6 stock)

I like the feel of the lighter shafts better, so do you think a a similar shaft with lower torque would help?

If the draw setting helps then that would indicate the fade is being caused by the club face remaining slightly open at impact.   I'd look at higher torque shafts first to see if that eliminates the fade.  The shaft torque controls twisting and it sounds like the shaft might not be returning to true at impact because of your swing speed and quick transition.

I'm thinking lower torque would help to square the face better with a quicker transition....?

    • Is it? I bought the Stack radar to replace my PRGR based on what Stack told me! When I am swinging for speed, the PRGR would miss 50%-80% of my backswings due to a higher speed. The stack seldom misses those- at least for me.
    • As an analyst by nature, I would like to compare the scores under both systems. It is something we can easily do if we have the data. I actually thought the new system was less fair to those whose game was on the decline - like mine! Old: Best 10 of last 20 scores with the .96 multiplier. Course handicap excluded course rating and overall par. New: Best 8/20. Course handicap includes course rating -par. My understanding is Stableford caps scores at Net double bogey like stroke play. If so, handicap should be slower to rise because you are only using 8 versus 10 scores. If I am missing something, I am curious enough to  want to understand what that may be. My home course tees that I play are 72.1/154 now. My best score out here is 82. When my game started to decline, my handicap didn’t budge for 13 rounds because of good scores in my first 8! I know I am an anomaly but my handicap has increased almost 80% in the past few years (with only a few rounds this year). For a few months I knew I was losing every bet because my game was nowhere near my handicap. I suspect I have steamrolled a few nuances but that shouldn’t matter much. When I have modeled this with someone playing the same tees and course, one good round, or return to form, will immediately reduce the handicap by some amount.
