Hello, i am wondering on if I should get x-100 shafts. My coach said I should 100% get them because I hit my 7 iron 190 carry on track man and like 182 on course and I hit it high. My club head with 6 iron was like 95 mph I think. Just let me know what u think.

It seems to me that your coach knows you and your swing a lot better than any of us do...

Better yet, a qualified fitter could compare several different shafts and help you choose the one that actually best suits you.

It depends. 

If you are looking into new clubs then go get fit.

Before you make any decisions of that nature, I strongly recommend actually hitting all the different shafts you're interested in potentially using. 

I have tried Project X, Dynamic Gold, KBS Tour, KBS C-Tapers, and the newer Project X LZ shafts, and of the bunch of them I prefer the KBS Tour and Project X LZ shafts the best. They both felt nice, and they gave me the best dispersion and spin numbers. Other golfers are best suited by the standard Project X, or the C-Tapers, or the Dynamic Golds. 

Try them all out on a launch monitor, then get the ones that you like the best if their numbers back up their feel if you're looking to upgrade your shafts. Another question that's relevant to ask is what shafts you are currently using.

In addition, I have a 4-PW of Tour Issue Dynamic Gold X100 (just a fancy label and tighter weight tolerances compared to the standard X100) shafts lying around that I could work a deal with you on if you end up deciding to go with the X100s.

      Day 4 (24 Jun 26) - Played the mid-week shootout - iffy day on putts as I had 35 and of late been in the upper 20's.   Greens recently verti-cut and they are a bit bump and long haired - no excuses as I need to learn to trust making the proper adjustments.   Overall a decent day with some solid long game shots.

      Thank you.  I'll cross it off the list since it isn't going to achieve what I want.

      Phil Mickelson Booted out of Farms Golf Club

      While it does turn out that both Tiger and Phil are less squeaky clean than I previously believed, I don't think golf quite has the worst in professional sports.  Or maybe they're better at image management.   Obviously I'm not fond of Phil's issue we're discussing in this thread (or his involvement with LIV) or Tiger's choices of how to drive.  I used to really like Dustin Johnson and, even before the LIV situation, we started to hear rumors that he bought more snow than Seward, although I don't think those stories were ever substantiated.  Meanwhile, I did think of Anthony Kim as the "good, bad boy" of the tour for a while fifteen years ago because of his party persona -- and if it turns out the worst he did was show up hung over to play (barring what one thinks of LIV), that's pretty good.  And I'm still happy he found a way to get his life clean. If we contrast that with some other sports I enjoy, I'm sure we could find a nice long list of NFL players that, at one point in my life, I was quite fond of, we get far worse disappointments (to put it mildly).

      Answering that properly would land me in hot water, so I'm not going to. I don't think that many people would do that. I think that in certain circumstances many people would be willing to overlook someone doing that. But I was really referring to what I assumed was Tiger's transgressions (cheating on his wife) not Phil's.
