One other note the R Flex 64g V2 HL stiffness profile is Butt 256, Mid 6.4 and Tip 24.

As for the weight I also have a 983K 9.5 and the shaft is a titleist 4560 62g and I can drive the ball as far or even slightly farther however besides using in on my driving range I have only played 27 holes with it. I am planning on going in the next 2 days to a reputable club builder. If my shaft is more of a mid launch which I think it is I probably lean toward the 64 V2 HL. I also think as I play more my swing will improve and the 64 will fit me better for a longer period. However the clubfitter may have other ideas. Thanks

I have read that you need a softer tip to get a high launch shaft. Just wonder what my current shaft is compared to a V2 high launch 6700R. My current shafts specs tip freq. 786 butt freq 241. I did the wizard on the UST website and it recommend the V2 High 6700R that is 64g. I saw the 53 and was wondering if that would be to wippy and thought the 64g would be good longer as I improve my swing speed.

I was told that with my club head speed (mid to upper 80's) that I may get more distance with a high launch shaft. My driver is a titleist 907 D2 that is 10.5*. The shaft is a spec grid 67 R flex that is more mid launch. If so I was possibly looking at the USt V2 64g R flex high launch. Thanks for more info.

I just had the new driver for a couple of months my old driver is a 983K with a titleist 4560 R shaft and its 62g. I am going to get my swing analyzed. With my new 907 D2 I am about 10 yards or so shorter than my old 983K with the 62g shaft.

I am going in a couple days to have my driver swing speed tested. I think its only in the low to mid 80's at best. I went thru the wizard at UST and from the facts that I think it had recommended me to use the 57g R flex V2. My current driver is a Titleist 907 D2 with the spec grid 67. Just curious if the 57g shaft would be good for me. Anyway just wondering if anyone here swings one that light. I will no more after I go to my LGS and have my swing analyzed. Thanks

My old driver Titleist 983K 9.5* has a Titleist 4560 shaft. From a search I found it is 60 grams and 4.7 torque and listed as a regular flex. My new driver 907 D2 10.5* has a Aldila made for Titleist shaft and it is 3.9 torque and 67 grams shaft. I can hit my old driver about 20 yards more. I have never had my swing tested but 2 guys said probably low to mid 80's. I was thinking about getting a new V2 shaft for my 907 D2 and I used their club selection wizard and it came up with a 5050 57g 3.7 torque. I figure that I could gain my 20 yards back due to the weight. Of course I realize I need to get my swing speed acurately tested before I get my club reshafted. Thanks for any comments.

Just curious what is the difference between the regular V2 and the V2 high launch. Anything besides of hitting a higher trajectory.

I have heard the boxer was a very good hybrid however I have never used them. As for the Nickent 3DX I have 2 ironwoods 1 is a #2 17* 3DX GenX which is an older version. It is a reg shaft and the shaft is made by UST. It is my best club in my bag. I have been tempting to buy a newer version but I wonder why. I just bought a 3DX #5 26* with a UST V2. I only played one round with it and maybe with 4 or 5 balls with it. So far I really like it. I am not a big swinger so I got reg flex shafts in both. My next will be a 3DX #3 then a 3DX #4. I like the Nickent because they are good quality clubs and you can get them on ebay at a very good price.

I have never heard of the Niblick. I did see one a couple weeks ago with the cleveland wedges at Dick's. I thought it was a new wedge line. After reading it I was intrigued when I seen a 37* (about what my 8 iron is) thought this may be great for bump and run. Very intresting club would love to know more about it.

I got a Nickent #5 Hybrid 26* with a V2 shaft.

Wondering if anyone here practices swinging with a Medicine Ball. It seems to be a good way to practice my hip rotation and build some strength. Just curious what weight ball you all use. Thanks

I have joined. Long and Straight

I am intrested when is the deadline. Never played Fantasy Golf but defiently would like to give it a try.

I boguht a new Titleist Drtiver a few weeks ago and I was telling a friend that the Torq is 3.9. Its a regular flex shaft and he says if I sing too hard it may get some twist. I think my swing speed on my driver is in the mid 80's just curious if I should be concerned about the torq. My intentions is in the next few weeks is go to my LGS and have my swing speed tested and if I need to I may get the driver reshafted. Anyway thanks for advice on torq. Steve

I have heard in cold weather to use a lower compressed ball. I was wondering what temp should it be when to start playing a softer ball. I was playing a Callaway HX Hot but am switching to another ball probably a Pro V1. Thanks

I really like my other 2 hybrids. The are my easiest club to hit just as long as I dont over swing. I am not a great long iron player and plan to eliminate my 5 iron with the 26*, I think it will be good on some par 3's one thing I have noticed they land very softly when hitting into the greens.

Last night I bought another new Nickent Hybrid. Its a 26* 5 and what I like about it it has the V2 shaft. Oh it a christmas present. I have a Nickent 17 2 ironwood that I love and I have a 21* Nickent 7 wood. The new 26* will replace my 5 iron. Just curious if anyone here plays a 26 hybrid. Thanks for the info.

Just curious besides 1 degree what difference would be between a #3 20 degree ironwood and a #7 fairway utility wood.

Just curious if any of you all buy used Pro V1's online. Who has the best prices on the better quality ball. Thanks

I have really grown to like my hybrids a lot and just tonight I bought another well its going to be a Christmas present from my wife. I got a Nickent 4 ironwood 26 degree. Oh the one I bought tonight has a V2 shaft can't wait to hit this will replace my 5 iron. I also have a Nickent 2 ironwood 17, and a Nickent hybrid 7 wood 21 degree. Just wondering what all hybrids you all carry. Thanks

So far looks like Pro V'1s. He actually owns part of a knife company and has made his own divot tool and probably make a groove sharpner. (I'll have to ask him about that.

Don't know if this has been discussed. I am looking for some ideas on a inexpensive golf gift (below $50) for a golfer that has about everything in his bag. Thanks

How about the Nike PD Soft

I guess I am closing my clubface. I really try to concentrate on having a loose grip which I think too loose could cause this.
