  1. Is the Fujikura Fit-On-Max 76 a good, low spin fairway wood shaft? I broke a shaft for my Callaway X 15 degree and need something of reasonable price and that will have low spin. My 3 wood swingspeed is approximately 95 miles per hour. My spin is above 5000 rpm and I need something that will help lower it. I have a smooth transition and a smooth release. Suggestions are much appreciated!!! Also, does anyone know if the Callaway X is a low or high spin head?
  2. If a player hits a 21 degree 38.25 inch 4 iron 170, how far would he typically hit a 21 degree 40 inch 4 hybrid? I am trying to fill the gap between the 4 irno and a 3 wood that is hit about 205 yards. I am not sure if I should get 2 and 3 hybrids or if the gapping will be off. Any help you can give on that is much appreciated!!!
  3. I don't want to go higher than a 58 because I cannot hit them consistently well. Tom Wishon is the President of Wishon Golf. Thanks for the response.
  4. The R11 9 iron is 40 degrees and pw is 45 degrees. I would like to add 3 wedges to that which do no exceed 57 or 58 degrees. Would it be a good idea to bend the pw to 44.5 and go at 4.5 degree increments to 58 degrees? Will that be my best distance gapping? I have also thought about just going 49-53-57 and no bending of the pw or 50-54-58. I will use the gap wedge (49/50) for full shots and most of my chipping, the next wedge for sand shots and some full shots, and the highest lofted wedge when I need the high ball - which isn't too often. For what I am looking to do with the clubs, what do you think would be best? Would bending the pw and having even increments be best? Tom Wishon says very few people can bend a club to 1/2 degree increments accurately. What do you think??? Thanks!!!
  5. Thanks for the reply. Another question for you great fitters. The R11 9 iron is 40 degrees and pw is 45 degrees. I would like to add 3 wedges to that which do no exceed 58 degrees.

  6. Thanks. I would love to wake up in the morning and have a lot more opinions from you wonderful clubfitters!
  7. I was fitted into TaylorMade R11 irons with Dynamic Gold S300 shafts. The Trackman Launch Monitor stats for that setup 6 iron (28 degrees, 37.25 inches, 61.5 degrees lie, 5.6 frequency, D3-D4 swingweight, Golf Pride VDR or Tour Velvet grip) done on a 75 degree day with no wind is as follows... Club Speed 81.2 Attack Angle -1.7 Club Path -4.8 Vert. Swing Plane 57.7 Horiz. Swing Plane -5.8 Dynamic Loft 26.4 Face Angle -.9 Ball Speed 104.5 Smash factor 1.29 Vert. Angle 21.0 Horiz. Angle -1.7 Spin Rate 5604 Spin Axis 3.7 Max Height 27.1 Carry 148.7 Side 1.2 Flight Time 5.46 Landing Angle 43.2 Total Length 159.8 Total Side 1.7 I am 51 years old, 5' 9" and 155 pounds, an 11 handicap, will have these for at least 5-7 years, my swing speed isn't getting any faster, I have a flattish swing, a smooth release, a typically high ball flight, have little wind in the area in which I play, and this is a very expensive and important purchase to me . Does this setup look good to you? I am getting this shaft as I really like its feel and typically play well with Dynamic Golds, but I am worried that it is too stiff. Are there any adjustments that can be done to the S300 or club setup that would make my ball flight, distance, and accuracy better for the long term? Are the launch and descent angles good? Do you think the DG S300 is appropriate based on the information given or would softstepping the S300 be better for me long term? How does the entire setup look to you? Any help any of the professional clubfitters on this forum can give me is incredibly appreciated!!!
