Samson Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 After having my fitter sell me a set of Srixons based on dispersion and included shaft and grip upgrades - I had a driver fitting today. At the end of it he recommended that I keep my 3 year old driver head and make a 200$ shaft swap. I am absolutely blown away after all of the demo days and 700$ price tags I have been shown. It was very refreshing to see someone not push the newest and shiniest. If you happen to be North of the Border near Calgary, Alberta - check out Simply Golf - one of the most positive purchasing experiences I have had in any industry.

Samson Posted March 11, 2017 Author Share Posted March 11, 2017 Low when that happens, what setup did you have and what is the new shaft recommendation? I had been playing a Cobra FlyZ+ with a stock project x 6.5 60g. Super forgiving but rarely straight. Misses are slices or straight pulls Swung 10 different combinations and found that the Speed Rulz Type C in an 80 gram gave me a very tight dispersion-l with a very predictable 2-8 yard draw. Biggest difference was that I was finding the sweet spot consistently. Fitter is going to tip some high end Diamana shaft to try side by side with the Speed Rulz - but he says he prefers the Speed Rulz.

AH1980MN Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Super cool. I'm hoping to get a driver fitting from 2nd Swing once (if) my back heals up- played all last year with no real gamer, just rotated through old ones​ I had laying around... Really hope my swing and swing speed comes back or maybe improves with the ​stretches and yoga. (Sorry if I hijacked this thread!)

opsimpson Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Head cracking sucks. Had it happen to my white 12* SLDR. After much work and a fitting the 2017 M1 is the only thing I have found to come close. Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
