I picked up a set of Ping eye 2s with (mostly) DG S200U shafts; I feel these shafts are a just a bit too stiff for me.

The 2 iron has a Ping shaft but no flex. It has a black top band, a blue Ping man and a blue bottom band. It is hard to get a sense of feel for this shaft. Can anyone tell me what flex and weight it is?

The 3 iron has a "TT lite" shaft in R flex (green and black shaft sticker). I like the feel of this one. Searching the net for details, I find only "TT Lite XL". Can anyone tell me if TT lite is basically the same thing as TT Lite XL or what the difference is?

Thanks

I have a set of :ping: Eye 2 irons that have a similar set of shafts in it. TT Lite XL is the updated version of the TT Lite that's literally all I can find as well. Are you sure it's not ZZ-Lite? That's the Ping version of the shaft... But True Temper made that shaft exclusively for :ping:. Which was a flexed version of the TT-Lite. The TT Lite XL is a multi-flex mid-flex shaft meaning depending on how you tip trim it dictates its flex.

Thanks for that.

The TT lite is definately not a Ping shaft because today I managed to pick up a couple of old 3 irons with the same TT lite shafts for only R40, I will swap them into the 4 and 5 irons. The Ping shaft in the 2 iron is still an enigma. I will be happy if it is a light weight regular flex then I can just leave it.

I am not sure that I can tell the difference between R or S but not knowing, plays with my mind when I hit it less than well - was it me? was it the shaft?

Usually the further up the shaft the first step is the softer the flex (If the shaft has steps)

The ping shaft with the blue bottom band and black top band is the Ping zz lite shaft.  You can google it for info or specs.  I have them in my old Eye2 irons.  I never looked into them much.  They only came in one flex...stiff.

    • Thank you.  I'll cross it off the list since it isn't going to achieve what I want. 
    • 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.
    • No! Is a large part of the human population selfish, apathetic and cuts corners in the name of self-preservation 'more than they would like to admit', yes. Degenerate, scum, etc?.. no!! Most humans/men would not grope a woman like Phil is accused of doing (I think he absolutely did). That is scum. I mean what % of men do you think would do that? Seriously?? 
    • I don't think that is true at all. That is off-topic here, I think.
