  • What's your current ballfilight? Medium with a draw that can get a bit too draw-y.

We're going to mix it up with shaft testing for you guys today. If chosen, you'll receive a shaft but we're not telling you what it is.

 

This is for the folks that signed up for our Equipment Testing Panel. (If you haven't signed up, do so here: Testing Signup)

 

Please answer the following:

  • What's the current driver model you're playing?
  • What shaft are you gaming? (mfgr, model, flex, weight, tipping)
  • What's your current ballfilight?
  • Average driving distance?
  • Are you happy with this current shaft?
  • If chosen with you agree to test the new shaft and participate in an ongoing review thread with other GolfWRX members?

We're going to chose 5 for this test.

 

Good luck. You'll be notified via pm early next week.

Please answer the following:

What's the current driver model you're playing?

I am playing a Taylormade M2 10.5*

 

What shaft are you gaming? (mfgr, model, flex, weight, tipping)

Aldila Rogue Silver 110MSI 70g Stiff, standard tipping per OEM.

 

What's your current ballfilight?

Medi trajectory.

 

Average driving distance?

Approximately 250 yards.

 

Are you happy with this current shaft?

For the moment, yes. However, I am always on the hunt for anything that might lower spin rates. I tend to move into the ball with a negative angle of attack, so lower launch and spin shafts work better for me.

 

If chosen with you agree to test the new shaft and participate in an ongoing review thread with other GolfWRX members?

Absolutely. I enjoy testing products and offering as much insight as possible, especially with data to help paint clear pictures of results.
