Response to EJW: I agree with your assessment of Recoil. About 2 years ago I replaced a set of 15 year old irons (DGS300 shafts) with new Srixon 785s and Recoil 95 F4 (stiff) shafts and soft-stepped them one club. I do have sensitive joints but was not willing to sacrifice distance. In fact, I gained over ten yards in distance with this setup. I did all the testing and research on my own and couldn't be happier with the results. Everyone should know that stiffness does not equate to distance. A #4 rebar is stiffer than any golf shaft but delivers little ball speed. It's the way a shaft loads and unloads that counts. Sorry if that sounds a little preachy, but EJW's comments are right-on.
