I am considering having X7's put in my pw-6i. 

I use x100's currenltly but the shorter clubs have a tendency to baloon if i go full out. I have the power for them from what i can tell, my PW carries 155 and my driver club speed is around 123mph. However nobody i have spoke to has even heard of these shafts including club fitters and tour pro's. It seems Jason Day os the only guy on tour with them in and he has them in pw-5iron and has had for 2 years. I read somewhere that if you are powerful enough then they would noticably tighten shot dispersion without sacrificing length due to a more penetrating flight. My current ballflight with my x100's is pretty high

Anybody tried these? Or could shine some light on them.

Seem very comparable to X100 - weight is 2g heavier. They say the spin is lower (low v medium) than the X100. Both tout the low flight spiel.

Like you, I still hit a high ball with a full follow-thru, even after changing to the heavier X100 this season. Maybe they don't balloon so to speak, but I can only imagine what you mean.

If it were me, I wouldn't see the X7 as much of a change from your current set-up.

Yes not much difference in weight but they have  a bigger diameter then the x100 which would help them alot stiffer and able to take more load. I can only see them having a positive effect and it wont cost that much to trial in a few shafts so ill just go ahead and try them out. Ill report back. I will compare the too on the trackman

Just an update.

Put the dynamic gold x7's into my irons last week.

Big imrpovement on the x100's for me. No loss of distance and a much nicer flight and noticably tighter dispersion. Great solid feeling at impact with them too

    • Day 225 (14 Dec 24) - Son called and invited me to play nine with and grandson.  We head to the local course - temps in the mid-50’s, N-NE wind 10-15 mph (hurting going out, helping coming in) as the course pretty much runs N-S on both nines.  Highlight of the round - grandson chips in for par on the 1st hole.  My play was much better to today-five pars, four bogies for a solid 40. Course management as it relates to the wind was key. 4 of the 5 pars were up and down saves as the green side pitches/chips were the ticket.   Have to say it was neat playing with my son and grandson and seeing the love of the game continue….
    • I've been playing golf around California for several decades. Shortly after COVID I think we all noticed an large increase in the amount of play on all the courses. Around that time I noticed the pin placements were being placed in the most difficult positions on the greens. Mostly they were placed as close to the edges of the green as possible. Often within as little as 6 or 7 feet. I ask PGA pro at one of the courses why are they doing this because it make the course play considerably more difficult. He responded by saying a study was done and they found that these difficult pin placements created fewer ball marks on the greens. I recently played a course I've played numerous times over the years and the were in nearly impossible locations to get an approach close. Has anyone else noticed this and if so do you feel it is still necessary? Here is a photo of an example;
