Popular Post tony@CIC Posted March 18 Popular Post Share Posted March 18 When I talked to Angelo last week he thought I was between a 2 dot and 3 dot. He suggested I wait for the intro of their "Try Before You Buy" program and get both to see which one works best. That program went online today and I just ordered both the 2 and the 3, and I have until April 15th to try both of them. In case you're not aware it's called their 'Demo' program. cnosil, William P, Indy_Oz and 11 others 7 7 Quote Left Hand orientation SIM 2 D Max with Fujikura Air Speeder Shaft Cobra Radspeed 3W/RIptide Shaft 410 Hybrids 22*, 26* Cobra Speed Zone 6-GP/Recoil ESX 460 F3 Shafts SM7 54* Wedge Glide 3.0 60* Wedge O Works putter V3 NX9-HD - 4 Wheel EZGO TXT 48v cart - too many shoes to list and so many to buy And BAG Boy Golf Balls: Vice Pro Plus 2020 Official Tester Beginning Driver Speed - 78 2019 Official Tester 410 Driver 2018 Official Tester C300 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MIGregB Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 (edited) I was going to hold off trying the Newton shaft until I've experimented more with a Motore X shaft on which I installed a Cobra adapter. Because it was originally made for a Callaway driver and I installed a universal adapter, it comes in at about 3/4" longer than standard (I didn't want to cut it down until I played with it a bit). I'm not as accurate with it as with the stock LINQ shaft, probably because of the added length, but I definitely have a higher ball flight (which I wanted) and I'm longer. But the demo program is too good to pass up, so I ordered a 3 dot (I'm solidly in the 3 dot range) and I'll experiment with them both. BTW, it looks as though they may have a finite number of demo shafts to offer. When looking at both a 3 dot and 4 dot, it said only 9 or 10 remaining.

Like @tony@CIChas said, I know what works for me, but I'm always open to something better.

I tried 4 dot and then 5 and sticking with the 5 Based on everything I'm reading online, the common recommendation is to go up one dot. As I mentioned in my post, Angelo recommended I try the 3 dot even though the 2 dot specs fit my distance numbers. However, he just didn't go by that spec, since I was also able to give him AOA, Launch Angle and Swing Speed along with the shafts that worked or haven't worked in the past for me.
