Anyone play this shaft in their irons? What do you like about it, how does it suit your game? Would also be good if you could post your specs such as swing speed, what type of swinger are you etc! I tried XP95 R300 recently but felt it was a bit too light so im sure the XP105 would best suit me. Please share your thoughts! Thanks

I had the same issue with R300, so I went to the R400. I LIKE the R400. I am supposed to hit the s300 according to the fitters, but when I use accelerometers on my clubs during a practice round, the speeds show the R400/S200 swingspeed range. This is real typical for me, swinging inside the max speed I could make. I never really seem to NEED a wide open tempo, I will club up. I think you should be careful and study ball flight. Those xp105s are high flight. That means low bend typically, which may chang some things. Perhaps you can find a mid bend, something neither too high nor too low, so that you have sticks that are pretty good at all kinds of shots not just low or high. Another subtle thing is whether the bend profile of your long sticks yield the same ball flight as your irons. It can be hard to track, but I have seen guys that favor low bend sets (graf blue D through wedges) look for drivers without success because the flight was wrong but they didnt know why.

I just picked up a set of AP2s with XP 95 Stiff.  They feel a lot like my NS Pro 950GH stiff but launch a bit higher and feel a little smoother on the handle end.

    • Day 132: 5/7/24 Full Speed Spectrum Training session 8/24. 7th training program overall.    Another slow session but 4 mph faster than my last session, which was my slowest ever. Going to the doctor on Friday to check on pulled neck muscle.
    • Day 26: Did full swing practice after work. First 15 balls were working on top of the backswing feel, and then tried to incorporate transition feel into the next 15 balls. A's, although this will be my last season of being a fan as they leave for Las Vegas (by way of Sacramento for a few seasons). Hard to see myself rooting for the Giants, but if that's the only MLB in the Bay Area, I guess I might get on board.
    • My two cents? Don't. As a beginner that's interested in learning about the golf swing, you'll find yourself consuming a lot of information, most of which isn't even relevant to your own swing. You need to learn you can't think your way to a good golf swing. Focus on the one thing that you're working on and doing that on every swing, come what may. And remember, mishits happen.
    • Day 6 (7 May 24) - More work in the backyard focused on tempo in addition to setup.  Worked with 6 and 7 irons hitting hard foam balls - used the old MacGregor irons to mix it up a little.   
    • No! lol. But they have to be in the right sequence to play mid-handicap golf or little better. Mostly. And even in that there is range/margin for error in the motions and positions that most normal humans can handle. It helps if you have a decent idea of how a golf club moves around the body like you would any other equipment sports (baseball and hockey might be the closest) After all, fairways are 40 yards wide. Don't overthink it. Be diligent in getting basics right. I will concede that it is harder than it sounds but it certainly is not exact angle/exact position/exact degree of bend/exact speed/exact facial expression, etc, every.... single.... time or the result is horrible death.
