you held off for a while - what was it a week since seeing the ball speeds on the launch monitor?

I hit it again yesterday evening. Nice high draws, one after the other. What I like is that I seem to be able swing so easy and get the same results with this damn thing. Its long (shaft wise) as hell and seems like a telephone pole to me but man can I hit it consistently over and over and over.

Its a 10.5* tour burner, 45.5 inches long and a stock RE-AX R flex shaft. I feel like Ernie Els swinging it. Just lalalalalalala BOOM.

Oh, so the steel shafts have gone in the bin then?

At the length this thing plays I couldnt lift it with a steel shaft


Its funny but I am pretty sure I am a complete anomaly when it comes to golf equipment, especially in relation to flex with woods. I can hit any flex pretty much exactly the same. Only slight differences in ball flight, but nothing worth mentioning. With irons I need the stiffness to combat my back in the stance ball position. With woods I can hit anything from an L to a 2xx with pretty much identical results. Of all the people I have fit over the years I have only met one other guy with the same (problem).

At the moment I am ballooning X100 Tours! I can't keep the spin off the 7, 8 and 9. Yet I can hit a regular shaft with less spin. Hence the PX6.0

You are sensitive to feel. You cant feel the X100's flex so you swing harder and flip at impact creating more spin. This is typical for 99% of the population.

He's talking crap. He hasn't got the club head speed for a firm flex never mind stiff or X flex, swings like a girl to be honest

[dave.]

That makes sense. I twat the 5 iron 200. 7 iron 160, it just fizzes. I swing smoother with the longer irons and get a flatter trajectory through the apex as a result. 7,8,9 just drops at the apex, like lead balloon with so much backspin I almost hit them backwards
