I got a 3 dot shaft (I can get my SS up to 90 tops), but I accidentally (golf bag fell against cart) snapped it in half before I got any real feedback. When they graciously agreed to replace the shaft I asked for a 2 dot figuring at my age I am only going to lose SS, and soon. My mistake, because I also have an aggressive swing and the 2 dot doesn’t like the sudden change of direction. My limited experience has been that this shaft helps with accuracy and will add some SS once I get it tuned in. All of this is to suggest that if you are an aggressive swinger you may want to go with the highest dot number in your SS range.

The RC is totally a good old boy controlled event. Just look at the captains, the assistant coaches and the players who get picked. When one of the “ins” doesn’t automatically qualify he gets in because: “he has been hot the last week” or “he won one big event” or “he did well before and he is a leader.” If JT really was so concerned about “respecting” the game, he would say thanks but LG, KB, etc. are more deserving. But in the end pro golf is a “ME” sport, so GO USA, go JT.

A local pro suggested practicing one arm swings (lead arm)and doing so really got me away from worrying about backswing grooves/positions. Now when playing I just try to reproduce the one arm swing feeling. Best drill ever for freeing up my swing of tension.

Have tried them all/Kirklands are the best deal I have found in 50 yrs of golfing/just knocked out a 74 using a Kirkland the full 18 and it could be used again. I have 48 Kirklands for about the same price as a doz. of my old ball, Pro v, and have given up nothing in performance.
