GolfSpy_BNG Posted July 27 Posted July 27 Didn’t see a thread on this and will keep this open as long as we stay civil. What’s your golf “hot take”? Here are a couple of mine NEVER take swing advice online from someone that won’t show you their own swing! Shafts can’t affect dynamic loft without affecting other factors such as directional ball flight. Shafts are more than just a fine tuning component. Golfers can wear whatever they want Music on course is better than having to hear others scream when they make a 5’ par putt!

Jakesy35 Posted July 27 Posted July 27 Maybe more like a lukewarm take but I would rather play with a bad player who takes 10 shots a hole and goes a little slow than with a great player who’s pissed off at every tiny mistake and rushes through the round because he’s mad that he’s not going low today. barney_bogey, JFish350, Rob Person and 5 others 7 1 Quote SJ

Don’t blame ya there. I’d also rather play with someone just looking to enjoy themselves.

sirchunksalot Posted July 28 Posted July 28 Don't be ashamed to play it forward if you can't hit it long. Listen, I have as much man pride as the next guy but if I can't keep up with my playing partners as far as distance, I'll move up a set. I played the forward tees at RNK and it didn't bother me a bit. It's all about getting out and enjoying the round. See also: we need to remove the stigma around moving up a set of two.

Golfspy_CG2 Posted July 28 Posted July 28 My Hot Take is. I hate all opinion i see often online——unless you are a single digit handicap you should spend money on Lessons not getting fit for clubs. First a good fitting migjt sctually benefit a higher handicap more fhan a single digit. Two who says you can’t so both.

This is nearly a burning tale because any good to great fitters with years and years of experience and collecting data have shown it’s not as important as most golfers think it is or want it to be. One can either read the data and information from those fitters and learn or they can continue to believe in ideas based off feelings. Wishon and Tutleman are two fitters who have written about the shaft for years. They have published information as well. Most Americans aren’t familiar with Howard Jones but he is another one What’s this opinion based on? Thousands of fittings you have done for other golfers? Hundred and hundreds of hours collecting data from those fittings or all those hours getting data from your swing and testing shaft after shaft with your swing? Or just how you feel?

The clarification is that you are seeking the advice out from that specific instructor. Not just some guy that comes along with references and starts giving advice.

GolfSpy_APH Posted July 29 Posted July 29 Search enough and one can find data to support any argument they want to make on one side or another. It then comes down to who they trust the most in terms of data validation, which again can be subjective. Why do we always circle around the same topics with these threads? Let's try someone just a bit fresh, have some fun with the debate and enjoy the conversation versus making it to the same exact argument that has been happening with all the shaft threads recently.
