Shaft help pls

[mazza78]

Hi. I'm after some shaft advice. I currently have 2 project x shafts I'm using but looking for something in between. I've got the project x 7c3 stiff which when I hit it I tend to get an occasional slice with and no hook  also have the project x pxv stiff which I do opposite with and occasionally hook it but no slice. Obviously I'm looking for something between the 2 then. I'm quite a quick tempo swinger and hit drives about 280+. I know custom fit is way to go but can't afford it. Was looking at 2nd hand 915 d2 so what shafts would you recommend please? Thanks

I would find out from these sites where the two shafts you've tried fit. Golf Works tests the shafts and categorizes them using the code. You can get an idea of what you want from that then look for a driver with that shaft. The last link is kind of a shaft fit guide.

Why not try a $10 solution first? Get the Project X pxv shaft regripped with an extra wrap of tape. See if that takes away the occasional hook before you spend quite a bit more on a new shaft. Just a thought.

A second thought would be, get a fitting. Is a fitting going to cost you any more $$/time than a hit-and-miss bid to find the ideal shaft in the used market?
