  1. Modus 120s are completely different profile from the s300 and steelfiber. They are softer shaft. The 120s is closer in flex to r200 but the shaft profile is still completely different. As has been mentioned we don’t have the necessary info from your swing or what might feel right for you. Also as mentioned the letter code on a shaft is irrelevant outside of the same shaft line and weight class. Only two real options get fit or spend time testing shafts in your iron
  2. Your hips are working in reverse order. Your right hip should be working back and around in the backswing instead your left hip is coming towards the ball. You need to go to YouTube and look at how to setup by Porzak golf or athletic motion golf. You need to search how to shift by athletic motion golf.
  3. Not fixing pitch marks on the green was a problem long before the rule change, even at higher end courses. That rule had no effect on PoP or how people treat the greens
  4. Scotty Cameron putters both otr and circle t. Price of prov1s but that’s died down now that most of the big brands are $54.99
  5. Two changes that have been beat to death across the internet for a long time. i wouldn’t change any rules Al’s they are all pretty good right now for helping pace of play and for maintaining the principle of playin the ball down. but if I had to change anything it would be to make it harder to have a reason to take a drop.
  6. Im with Ben. The marshals at most courses aren’t worth anything. They are usually there for the free golf and not much help. Plus the course probably doesn’t want them to say anything so that they don’t upset the patrons. One of the reasons it don’t play courses that don’t enforce a pace of play or if I do it’s during non peak hours
  7. Agree it’s. It goin to have the deposited effect. Dr. Sasho McKenzie has said the same as have some other experts. to your last paragraph the pga tour doesn’t care about that. They want longer drives and lower scores. It’s what sells on tv and draws the viewers. If the pga tour was concerned about distance and challenging the golfers they would put more tees all the way to the back, grow the rough and slow the fairways. But that’s not what their fan base wants to see
  8. Scottie $28 million to Xander’s $15 million. Scottie’s and it’s it not even close.
  9. I like them. I think they are better than odyssey. I would put them right there with tm and titleist
  10. Issues in the swing get exaserbated the longer the club gets. Working specifically on driver is not the best way to fix the driver issues. The longe the club the harder it is to compensate for the club being out of position compared to a short iron. Fix the swing issues and it will carry over to the driver. as cnosil mentioned you have to figure out where the change is needed. Find a good teaching pro. It will save time and frustration on getting better especially if you are able to check in to make sure you are doing the drills right and understanding what the pro wants you to do. Seen too many not do things the proper way and have a swing that’s just as bad years later despite tons of work and effort in practice
  11. Yes robots. It’s how you control the test which is why it’s been started best there is the human factor and the feel aspect of the shaft. It’s also why it’s been stated in multiple threads that how a shaft or even a club performs for one person is irritant to how it will perform for another. This is why fittings or some level of set testing are necessary to determine what works for a golfer. a lot of the mentality in here is like the bro science in the gym. Lots of opinions that are based on feelings and not supported by any data. Its also obvious that most have no desire to actual read anything and learn and that it’s okay to express opinions and tney shouldn’t be challenged . im out
  12. Not making it personal. When ones opinion differs a lot from actual experts who have done hundreds and hundreds of fittings and thousands off hours of data collecting and testing they have to be based on something other than feelings Rational people tend to change their minds and opinion when presented with data from experts in the field. The rest stay stuck in tneir mindset and don’t learn or grow and stay complacent. We disagree on the role of the shaft and what it actually does. I know it doesn’t spin or launch. Callaway and some others have done this testing on a robot and shown that lightweight ladies shafts and all the way to xxx stiff long drive shafts don’t have any big change in launch or spin from each other. The human factor determines club deliver which determines dynamic loft which is loft at impact. Its the head and the swing that influence launch and spin plain and simple .
  13. The fitters job is analyze what’s happening with the ball flight, understand the golfers goals including are they currently going thru a swing change or planning to. U.S. feedback from the golfer on their goals, their game including things like their big miss, what shot shape they want, what their on course strategy and results are and then get the golfer into a setup that optimizes their ball flight and gives them a chance to make a good swing and have the club work with them rather than them fighting the club to achieve their desired shot. A good fitter also understands the golf swing and how the golfer is swinging the club, and can even offer some swing advice to help. That’s what practice is for. You drill the proper mechanics on the practice range and green to teach your mind how to swing the club so that all the things that are supposed to happen you don’t have to think about. You play golf on the course and golf swing on the range
  14. Based on your years of fitting hundreds of golfers and thousands of hours conducting testing right? Data > feelings and opinions The feel and timing aspect of the shaft which affect club delivery. Just like for some when a shaft is to heavy and/or too stiff people make bad swings to compensate for the feeling they have with the club. It’s to fine tune the feel for the golfer. Then feel determines how one swings when the feel is off the timing is off. Then the timing is off then out swings are off and produce bad results. The shaft is there for feel and weight and is a timing device.
