Is there anything wrong with playing this shaft

Reg Flex
I bought a set of Ping i5 irons with Cs lite Reg flex. My swing speed with driver is 95 mph and 7 iron is 160 yards with a relatively smooth swing tempo. Irons feel good with mid/high trajectory. Decided to get fitted later and fitter recommended cs lite stiff flex. Do I sacrafice anything by playing the reg flex and should I change?

Don't let your ego get int he way, often times people play shaftts too stiff because they think they have a high swing speed. I have a 105mph driver swing speed and I play a regular flex in my driver with great results. Never let what is written ont he side of the club dictate wheter you use teh club or not... it's results that are what counts.

I agree with everyone here, I have played everything between an R and an X in my driver, depending on the manufacturer, with the same swing speed. Like many other things in the golf industry, there is no standard for shaft flex, its more of a feel thing. If you like your iron shots now, I wouldn't switch.

How is your accuracy with them?  I've been told by my fitter that more flexible will give me greater distance while stiffer flex will give me more accuracy.  I'm like you, I have a SS that's in the 95 range, but opted for stiff.

Most of the time the reg flex is good. Once in a while, when I am swinging real real well or going after it, I hit the ball high and to the right. Is that me swinging too hard or the shaft?
