What would you like to see MyGolfSpy test?

Golf shafts generally come in 4 flexes - senior, regular, stiff, and extra stiff.  The swing speed stuff they do here at MGS should reflect what I consider to be a 4 swing speed standard as well, not 3. It would make more sense to do it that way and seems like it would be easier for users to fit a swing speed category.

That makes a lot of sense Clayton... I am sure some responses will be about shaft flex from one shaft/mfg to another are completely subjective designations (which is certainly true - not to mention kick points and such), but at a 10,000 foot level... breaking swing speeds into 4 categories rather than 3 seems more intuitive to the range of amateur golfers.

I'd love to see a test of Puring the shaft where the orientation is controlled.  Pure'd orientation, +45, -45, +90.  All the tests I've seen so far is one pure'd shafts vs another of unknown orientation.  Problem is the unknown orientation makes the test results non-conclusive since the other shaft could be by luck in correct orientation.

Test could be extended to include a number of stock/after-market shafts to see if affect is less with high end shafts.

Lighter weight drivers (XXIO/Beres) vs standard 

Then 45.75” or 46” drivers vs 44.5” but with heavy heads around 210g.

I replied to this question on Twitter and got no feedback so I will reiterate here. I would love to see a double blind test of pured vs unpured shafts to see if it matters to weekend golfers. Look at distance and dispersion as the metrics and a make a case for what is a somewhat controversial topic.

I'd like to see a head to head test of the hybrid style SGI irons. Halo XL, LaunchPad, T-Rails, Hot Launch, Sub 70 799, etc. See which ones have best turf interaction, forgiveness, height & stopping power, etc. And actually have them tested by folks that would play them on the course, having them tested by a 6 hdcp with a 105 driver swing isn't really going to show what a weekend golfer could expect to get out of them.

Just as an FYI, for categories like SGI they try to keep the testers skill appropriate.
