Thanks for the tips, guys!

 

Unfortunately, Tour Edge has minimal presence in Europe... so don't have that many options.

I'll check the Vapor Fly out.

 

I'm also watching a 915F with the Rogue Silver...

and put a Rogue Silver 60 in it.  

 

You are welcome.

Yea both are low/low shafts for sure. It's a little weird to me that you like Silver Tini and not the Ahina though. The KK has a similar bend profile to the Ahina. Actually the KK XT(not the silver tini) profile is almost identical.

I had an Ahina in a 910d2 and loved that set up, but I think this goes back to the butt being stiffer in the KK, same reason I like and do better with project x shafts vs dynamic golds.

If it's low launch, then do not get the cobra F6 Baffler......with the rear weight, this baby gets airborne!  I will try the weight in the front soon.  That is supposed to lower the flight.

Foz I have it and for me when I put the weights in the front it indeed launches lower with way more roll and can also be altered by changing loft as well, I have spent a long while figuring out the correct settings for me but it's an awesome 3 wood!

Great, Ill change the weight when the course dries out this winter......for now I am satisfied with the high launch. I am using 16* and getting about 180 out of an easy swing off the deck.

Any one that I'm hitting of late.

:(

 

Fairway woods are killing me right now and I need to find a swing with one that is reliable. Its very frustrating to the point that I'm going to hit driver on every hole on Tuesday even though it's normally not the wisest play for me on 5 holes on my course. Depending on wind direction I may have to hit 4 hybrid, 5 hybrid on one hole.

Taylor Made Stealth 2 10.5 Diamana S plus 60  Aldila  R flex   - 42.25 inches 

SMT 4 wood bassara R flex, four wood head, 3 wood shaft

Ping G410 7, 9 wood  Alta 65 R flex

Srixon ZX5 MK II  5-GW - UST recoil Dart 65 R flex

India 52,56 (60 pending)  UST recoil 75's R flex  

Evon roll ER 5 32 inches

It's our offseason so auditioning candidates - looking for that right mix of low spin long, more spin around the greens - TBD

We are playing from a temporary tee on our #17, par 5.....so I am going Baffler 4, Baffler 4, then an 8 iron to the green. This has kept me out of trouble as there is a creek across the fairway at 200 yards.
