Look what I got straight from the Oven. Can't wait to get it on the course!
[/quote] please keep us updated - i for one would love to hear the thoughts on the fuji pro tour spec shaft...it was in my list of 'could buys' lol[/quote]

I have my review you can look at on the thread you will be able to see trackman numbers versus whiteboard ,BB and rogue

[leftypga]

So my Vapor Pro came in with a 70 gr Blueboard. First thing I noticed was, "damn this thing feels light!" It was... D1.5 swing weight. Had to throw some tip weight in the shafts, but got it playing D3 with the Blueboard, Speeder Pro, and Rogue Black. Hopefully my back stops acting up soon and I can hit it.

Here it is with my 915D3. [attachment=2616287:ImageUploadedByGolfWRX Mobile1423874506.846873.jpg]

I think these look much better than the yellow sasquatch years... ouch, those were ugly. These look pretty slick. Not sure about that swoosh on the crown but I take it people get use to it and just start ignoring it.

I finally had a chance to hit the Pro and speed today. They definitley feel lighter than the Covert models, which I liked. I hit the Pro very well, probably not well enough to kick my CT2.0 out of the bag but I did enjoy the feel of the Vapor drivers. Jury is still out until I can get outdoors. On the simulator I was seeing some very high spin numbers though, and I'm not a high spin player, at least I don't think. even with a whiteboard in the Pro I couldn't get it under 3k. Could be my swing though.

Nice clubs overall. Still not sold just yet.

The GG near me had one of the new fitting bags. Aside from looking cool, it didn't seem like much of an upgrade from the Covert launches. I was able to hit the normal array of upgrade shafts on both irons and drivers. Nothing for the fairways or hybrids at the store I went to. And not one left handed driver wood or hybrid on sale.

But what about stock ones in shops? They must be set to a standard loft/setting? So the shaft does turn with adjustment, pity
[/quote]

The shaft is aligned with the Neutral position as the stock setting. When adjusting the loft only, the shaft will not turn. When you change to either the Right or Left setting, the shaft will then turn. The Flexloft is by far my favorite adapter because of this.

Does ANYONE have a picture of the FLEX vs VR Pro limited? Limited is 440cc and balanced but i think it's more in line wirh vapor pro head.....
[/quote]

I took this not the VR Pro Limited but the older VR Tour

[csiachos]

I took my Vapor Pro out yesterday and put it up against my Vr Tour. Both have Whiteboard 63x tipped .5". The vspor Pro has a higher ball flight, less spin, and is easier to hit by far. I think old faithful might take a back seat.

Thanks bud.....that FLEX is just perfect to my eye!

[myreside]

Second outing with the vapor pro (still with s+ shaft as waiting on d+).

Swinging much better than last weekend. Only missed 2 fairways, one because I hit the ball further than expected and ran out of fairway at the dogleg and one aimed right and didn't bring it back enough).

For me club is long and straight. I even took on a carry over gorse that I would not have attempted with my G30 and even though I didn't fully catch it comfortably reached the fairway.

Very excited to get the d+ in to really see what this can do.

[quote name='wldchld22' timestamp='1423772167' post='10940333']Has anyone put a new flexloft shaft into a CT 2.0 head? Wondering if the change in weight is noticeable.[/quote] I went both ways. I put the 2.0 in my pro and my pro in my 2.0. Very noticeable. Biggest was when moving 2.0 kk shaft to my pro. Felt heavier considerably.
[/quote]

no it does't
I couldn't tell one bit of difference in the tips w regards to the club's SW[/quote] maybe I'm overly sensitive! The new club is supposed to be lower swing weight. The tip I thought was a few grams difference. I forgot what the swing weight per gram chart says but I think its something. Nevertheless it may be all mental!

[sneaky]

Golf : it's all mental.

[mwrdkc]

Is anyone on here hitting the flex with modified shafts? Seems like a lot of people are going with the pro model instead. Im looking to upgrade from the Covert Tour 2.0 and want to try the Flex with a white board 70+.

Thanks Lesmond. I have a 915D3 8.5 D+ 70x and ordered a Nike Vapor Pro D+ 70x that will be here in the next few days. This was pretty helpful.

Never let a bad round stop me. My Covert staff bag is the only bag I have right now. Good round or bad...that thing is with me.

Get it.

I've always stayed away from gaming a staff bag. Psychological warfare is very much a part of the game, and if it seems like someone I'm playing with or against is paying to advertise a company; it makes him/her look like a chooch. Unless you are a club pro with your name on a staff bag (or a tour pro of some sort and given the bag for free) I lose just a tiny bit of respect for you. I always tell my friends, let your game do the talking.

Agree, but I would only use it cause I love the way it looks. Not to pretend I'm a pro.

[leftypga]

Anyone else have any swing weight issues? My Vapor Pro came in Friday at standard length, Blueboard 70 X, D 1.5. Got it to a D2 with the Speeder Pro.

Other than the SW issue how did you like the Blue 70X in the VP? Been curious about that shaft.

Vapor Pro at Harding park. In my own private WGC match-play.

I assumed you weren't a chooch, and you wanted to buy the bag for looks. My guess is the photo doesn't do the bag justice. From one competitor to another, use that bag during your recreational rounds and use a low key bag during competition. Others will fear you more if you are not sporting a staff bag as an amateur. This all sounds silly, but it would be interesting to do research on the results. Same idea as when a player wears flashy clothes and can't keep up with the competition.
