  1. Yea I'm going to call on Monday. Do you think the Rogue Black 110MSI is a misprint as well?
  2. yea that's what I was thinking but this looked legit
  3. I was getting ready to fill out the Titleist 915D2 order form and one of the shaft options was an Aldila Rogue Black 70 (125MSI)......is this a misprint or does the Black come in 125MSI now??? I thought only the silver came in 125MSI.
  4. So I went to Golfsmith yesterday and had their fitter help me out. I brought my current driver along (with the DVS shaft) and tested it against the 915D2 with different shafts. After a few swings the fitter told me I should be hitting an X flex and something around 75 grams. So I tried the Diamana in a X flex 70 grams and hit it okay but nothing worth bragging about. After trying many different shaft combinations I went back to my old driver and hit it much better than the rest. The results, the feel, the trajectory, the spin, everything. The fitter did say that the DVS runs stiffer than most shafts so it's more like a stiff flex by industry standards which is why I can hit it. He did also say the Rogue Sliver 60 (125) might not be a good fit for me since I prefer a little more flex in my shaft. My club head speed was right around 113 during most of the fitting but I struggled to get the ball high enough with the X flex even with a 10.5 head. I hit a few at the end with my driver and was consistently carrying 285-290 with my spin rate averaging about 2400 and launch was around 8.5 degrees. I do tend to shut the face a little, thus creating a slightly lower ball flight and a consistent draw. I'm leaning towards getting the 915D2 with an X flex (haven't decided which one yet) and try it out based on the recommendations and my swing speed. If that doesn't work I'll just get another DVS shaft for $40 and put it on.
  5. Thanks for the input. The Rogue silver 60 (125) is actually on my order form thru my school discount which is why I was looking into it. I tested the driver the other night at the PGA Super Store but they only had the Diamana shafts and I didn't really like em. I'm gonna give Golfsmith a try. And great idea, I'm gonna bring my 909 with. Appreciate the help!
  6. Currently have a 909Dcomp 10.5 loft with Aldila DVS 60-R and love it but am going to upgrade to the 915D2. I use the regular flex DVS even though my swing speed is 116. The DVS is stiffer than most regular flex shafts so it works well for me. I want a shaft that has the similar characteristics as the DVS but can't decide on one. Went to get fitted but they only had a couple stock shafts that weren't that great. I'm looking into the Rogue silver 60 (125) but wanted know how similar they would be. According to the website they seem to have similar characteristics (I'm sure the Rogue spins a lot less) but can't get my hands on one to try. I have a discount so the Rogue (125) wouldn't be much of up charge for me so price isn't much of a factor. Any insight would be awesome!
