Sorry in advance, bit of a nit picky post here. Playing SS 120-125ish, into the low 130’s when messing around in a simulator. Looking for as low launch shaft as I can find, but I also really enjoy that loading feeling at the top. To throw in a 3rd wrinkle, I’ve also found that I don’t get along with lower balance point shafts ex: TZ5/Hzrdus Black. I’ve recently gamed Hzrdus Yellow, PO Orange, and TZ5. Yellow felt the best, but launched super high, Orange performed the best, but there’s no distinctive load. It may well be that I’m looking for a bit of a unicorn, but I’m open to opinions or reviews of shafts anyone has used. Thanks!

Here's my Full OVEN bag that I got one round in with.

Haven't done one of these in a while. I don't change clubs very often (i know... a sin) as you will see. Lucky to be a golf professional and get to play what I want so even though there are some ancient clubs in the bag they work for me. Looking to upgrade my driver and hybrid this year with some Titleist offerings but we will see. My 3 wood and putter are my bread and butter hence why they are the oldest clubs in my bag. I have yet to find another 3 wood that I can work both ways and consistently hit 285.... so why change? So here is it. My WMD's: Driver: Titleist D2 8.5° (Set on C3) w/ Matrix Ozik HD6 TP X-Stiff Fairway: Taylormade R7 TP 15° w/ Fuji Vista Pro 80 TP X-Stiff Hybrid: Titleist 712U 18° w/ Project X 6.0 Irons: Titleist 710 MB (3-9) All lofts 1° Weak w/ Project X 6.0 Wedges: Titleist Vokey SM4 (48°,54°,60°) w/ Project X 6.0 Putter: Scotty Cameron Pro Platinum Newport 2.0 (33.5") Bag: Titleist 10.5" Staff Bag Ball: Titleist Pro V1x (#34 or #41) My Dave Matthews influence Glove: Titleist Players/FJ Pure Touch

Just did an updated custom build on my SIM Ti 5 wood. I live in Texas hill country, so I use a 2 iron on the windy days and the 5 wood on calm days. Happy to have it back in my bag. Specs: TaylorMade SIM Ti 5 wood @ 18.25 degree & 1.5 open (Graphite Design Tour AD DI 7S shaft) I have been fighting a pull, hence the adaptor setting and lead tape.

1. 2014 Scotty Cameron Select Fastback - Bought brand new and wanted a stealth blackout look, Went with Putter Spa by JRich. Again Hardly ever used since. The putter finish is great the one on the shaft does show some wear due to re-gripping at a big box store. No change in feel. Brand new Super Stroke Traxion Pistol GT 2.0 Putter Grip - Digi Camo Color. $old. 2. Mizuno T20 Wedge (Used 1 range session) , Stock Club , S400 Shaft, Z Grip, Standard Everything - No Longer Available 3. Graphite Design Tour AD IZ 7x Wood Shaft with Left Hand Taylormade Adaptor - Sparingly used, was a demo shaft, Brand new Tour Velvet 360 (+1 Wrap) Grip- $old 4. Oban Devotion 7 04 (Stiff) Flex Driver Shaft Callaway Adaptor - 75 Grams. No Tipping - Used bu in excellent condition, Pure Pro Grip - $old See Pictures for details.

3 remaining Graphite Design shafts for sale. Prices include Paypal and shipping to continental US. I will ship elsewhere but prices will reflect additional shipping fees. 1) AD-TP 7S: this shaft has about 15 swings on it. It originally had a Titleist tip on it which was swapped to a Callaway tip for an Epic Flash. The Titleist tip goes much higher on the shaft so there is a small area of tip prep area that I put silver Sharpie on (see photo below). I never noticed it standing over the ball. Obviously, if you change the tip, you may never see it again either. Anyways, it measures 44 inches, has been tipped 1/2 inch, and played 45 inches in an Epic Flash. It could be very easily converted to a fairway wood shaft with room for additional tipping. The shaft condition outside of what is mentioned is nearly flawless. It has a Golf Pride MCC black/black that is midsize and essentially new. Asking $150 shipped and can send the Titleist tip if wanted. 2) AD-HY 85X: The 3H shaft measures just under 39.5, tipped 1/4 inch, and has Golf Pride MCC black/black that is midsize with a lot of life left on it. I would say it is in very good condition with 1 season of play, few minimal bag scuffs. Callaway tip was for original Epic Hybrid. Asking $110 shipped, will take $200 shipped for the pair. 3) AD-HY 85X: The 4H shaft is right at 39.25, Golf Pride MCC black/black that is midsize also a lot of life left. This was tipped 3/4 inch. It is also in very good condition with 1 season of play, few minimal bag scuffs. Callaway tip was for original Epic Hybrid. Asking $110 shipped, will take $200 shipped for the pair. 4) AD-UT 85R: SOLD I am happy to do any basic modifications such as such as cutting to length or further tipping if needed. Please let me know if you have any questions or would like additional images.

Are there any specs out on how to spot a fake black ad di shaft? I just picked one up and I wanted to be sure it isn’t fake. edit: I’ve seen lots on the Orange but nothing on the black shaft.

I demo’d a Sim Udi 2 iron the other day and loved it. Although I actually got along with the stock Diamana Thump 100X it comes with, it was still launching just a bit high for me. Im looking for a lower launching hybrid shaft that still has a somewhat smooth release (not a board) that won’t fight the draw I use to knock my ball flight down. I haven’t messed around with many hybrid / driving iron shafts, so I’m looking for a little input from those with more experience. Thanks guys

Pretty much all of the fairway wood shafts I've played in the past have had recommended tip trim instructions of the usual 0.5" trim for 3 wood, 1" for 5 wood (sometimes 7-wood these days) etc. which seems to have worked nicely in general, comparing how the shaft performs from driver to 3 wood etc.. Recently I've picked up a few Fujikura and older Aldila models that recommend 0 tip trim for 3 woods and I'm abit nervous/curious about why they do this. It's not as if the tips of the shaft are so stiff in comparison to other manufactures that they perform differently (or is it?!). Is it just a presumption that you want a fairway wood to launch higher than a driver? I'm not sure that's always the case from a shaft perspective, loft does the job for the most part. I've noticed Aldila have gone to the standard 0.5"-3 wood, 1" 5 wood or similar since being brought out by MRC. Anyway, so the question is what are peoples experiences or knowledge of why they do this? And how has if effected the performance of the shaft? Has not trimming the 3 wood shaft worked or have you had better results ignoring Fujikura etc. advice and going with the usual 0.5" trim etc? Anybody follow the no tip trim advice on shafts from other manufacturers that usual recommend trimming and had success? Any particular experience of the Fujikura Atmos line would be appreciated! Cheers

Hello everyone, first post in here but long time lurker.. Former D1 golfer and quit after graduation for 4 years. Gotten back into it over the past year and have really taken a deeper interest into equipment science then before when I was playing more often. Current gamer: LH Tsi4 9 degree lofted down to 7.25 (special billy bobs loft adapter) Fujikura Motore X F1 7X 46” CHS-132 Ball speed-196 Backspin-~2300 Transition- very aggressive/fast I was fit for the motore 6 months ago.. I also tested Ventus Black, VA Slay, Green Hulk, Tensei Pro white, and a speeder. After that I’ve learned I like a shaft with more kick/explosion, but want to try to keep the spin down. A mid/low profile it seems feels the best. really did not like the stout feeling of the Ventus and Hzrdus Fast forward, I’ve done well in some tournaments at my club and have a good chunk of $ in club credit to spend and want to order a couple shafts. I’ve placed an order for a graphite design ad hd 6tx, but wanted to see if there were any opinions on if there was another one out there worth ordering that gives me that explosive loading/kick, but kept spin reasonably down. I.e. Diamana zf/tb, tensei 1k white, Kaili Blue etc. Not terribly concerned with dispersion as I have a 1 iron for the narrow tee balls. I want to build out the biggest bomber I possibly can. Any feedback/opinions appreciated!

Hello WRX! Just started getting active on here again. I've always enjoyed this section of the forum so I figured it would be fun to do one of these posts. Thanks for checking this post out! This is my first WITB a long time and lots in the bag has changed over the last few months. A few ageless warriors, some new stuff, some stuff straight off the BST, some clubs stolen from my Dad. It's something of a bizarre blend but I think it keeps things interesting. A little about me -- I'm a retired high school golfer who couldn't hack it in college. Now I'm anything between 2 and 5 depending on my location in the world and the time of the year and try to stay competitive by playing in Men's Club Tournaments when I can. Hopefully will get seriously back into tournament golf soon as well as get some solid time to practice and take a crack at some long overdue swing changes. Frankly, I'll just be happy if I can get outside. Hopefully I will be able to get outside in some better lighting tomorrow ... not the greatest lighting at this point in the evening, but in the meantime here it is: Driver: Taylormade SIM (9 degrees) Shaft: Graphite Design YS-6X (tipped 1.5") Grip: Golf Pride New Decade MCC +4 3-Wood: Taylormade V-Steel Tour Spoon (13 degrees) Shaft: Graphite Design YS-6S (tipped 1.5") Grip: Lamkin Crossline Full Cord Midsize 5-Wood: Taylormade SIM TI (19 degrees) Shaft: Graphite Design YS-7X (tipped 2") Grip: Golf Pride New Decade MCC +4 Hybrid: Callaway RAZR Tour (21 degrees) Shaft: True Temper Dynamic Gold X100 Grip: Royal Grip LinkTech Cord Irons: PXG 0311T Gen 1 (5-W) Shaft: Nippon Super Peening Blue X (Soft Stepped x1) Grip: Royal Grip LinkTech Cord Gap Wedge: PXG 0311 Forged Gen 1 (50-12) Shaft: True Temper Dynamic Gold Tour Issue S400 Grip: Lamkin Crossline Full Cord Sand Wedge: Cleveland RTX ZipCore (54-12 Full) Shaft: Nippon Modus 130 Stiff Grip: Golf Pride New Decade MCC +4 Lob Wedge: Titleist Vokey Cold Forged (58-04 K) Shaft: True Temper Dynamic Gold S200 Grip: Royal Grip LinkTech Cord Putter: Ping i-Seires 1/2 CRAZ-E L 45" Grip: Super Stroke Tour 1.0 Split Ball: Snell MTB X Black, ProV1 Other: Jones Utility Trouper, Bushnell Tour V2 (the one from 5+ years ago) -- eats through batteries but works like a charm, a mix of headcovers, a ton of superglue.

Have a gorgeous mint set of the new baby blades. They are 3-PW with Modus 125X. The 5-PW are 1/4” over standard with align MCC +4 midsized grips while the 3 & 4 irons are 3/4” over standard with tour velvet grips. Only used one round. A few things to call out. The PW was refinished because the hosel was damage by some fool when bending the lie angle. The Golf Garage did the work and did an excellent job repairing it and you can’t tell there was ever any damage but the finish is very slightly different from the rest of the set. I can’t tell that there is a difference unless I am looking for it. The other item is the ferrule on the PW is very slightly separated from the head and the ferrule on the 9i is a little damaged. All of this is priced in. SOLD 2017 P790 UDI in excellent shape with a tour AD DI 95x shaft. Length is standard 40”. SOLD Brand new Project X Evenflow White T100 75g 6.5 shaft with PXG adapter.

I’ve been recently exploring the option of upgrading my stock shafts to aftermarket. I currently use the HZRDUS Smoke Black 6.0 in all of my woods and wanted to get recommendations on which shafts I should try. If you could explain the feel and differences between shafts, especially if you switched from the HZRDUS Smoke, that would help a lot. Thanks in advance!

I don’t know what it is with this driver. I’ve had it about three and half or so years. Bought it used. It had to of come off a tour bus and the specs just don’t align with my swing. I have to aim about 30 yards left to hit it where I want it to go and I’ve gone from bad hooks for a year to now really bad slices due to tweaking my swing. I can’t figure it out. I need to just pony up and buy a cheap old forgiving head to put on my Graphite Design AD IZ 6x.
