What you are proposing is a lot harder to do than just to fix your setup. I just can't imagine trying to change the flex of the shaft on command?

 

Are you absolutely sure that you aren't flipping or anything like that?

You can check my swing thread!! I'm still flipping a little - I've worked a lot of it out...I posted a pw and a 7i. I can detect the flip in the 7 but not the pw - there's still a little one there tho.

Are your divots well past the ball or right under the ball? Short high floaters are usually caused by getting under the ball more.

EDIT: I just checked your swing thread. Nice video! It looks like you're not getting your weight up on the lead leg at impact and on the follow through. I also noticed that you bend the legs just before impact. I can definitely see why you are getting under the ball, and why your launch is so high.

Varies really but never as far in front of the ball as I'd like them to be.

    • Day 33 (20 Feb 26) - played the Friday men’s group shootout.  Solid day of working from some tough shot results - made for a good number of up and downs for par (8 of the 9 pars were such). Cart mate and I discussed the visual aspect of the game - and how much it plays into the individual’s mindset during the round.  Love when the discussion is focused on learning and taking positives away and not just how bad the miss may be.  
    • Day 507 - 2026-02-20 Got some backswing work in on GEARS Hybrid.
    • Still kinda working on the backswing stuff. I can turn < 45°, but I tend to tilt toward the target a little. I can tilt away from the target, but I tend to turn a bit more. Case in point. I can do it, though: This I can do all day (it's more lateral than I want, but it's very linear): Here's what 38° of turn looks like. Almost freaking nothing.
    • Good progress. I am finally feeling like I am settling my weight into my right foot earlier in the backswing. Right hip sinks back, right leg feels staying flexed. Feeling very stable and firm in the right leg. I feel like I could do a good squat with that right leg. Very balanced. 
    • oops, forgot Pebble Beach and Spyglass.  And two more of the original Open rota, Prestwick and Musselburgh (with hickory shafted rentals).  And Muirfield.  And maybe a few more, I'll check my list when I get home.
