Go MMT, Axiom, Steelfiber, LAGolf: all have shafts in the 125 gram or so range. Glad they created a golf subforum. Thanks, GoatBoy! |

As a former golf professional, I don’t think it is appropriate to provide golf instruction over the internet. There are too many variables to assess someone’s body type/mechanics to accurately correct their swing, unless an in person lesson is provided.
Lots of good intentions in this thread, but I would encourage anyone serious about improving their game to find a good instructor that they can communicate with to work with. I will say, the most important aspect of switching to graphite shafts was the “feeling” of the weight of the club head versus the weight of the head and the shaft combined. This has a lot to do with grip pressure. Try to “feel” the club head only. |

Man, the blades are awesome on center strikes, but my shoulder and elbow say "oh, hell no" on anything of the toe!!!

Since this was the thread that started it all, I say we keep it going as the general chat.
Anyways, am I the only one more excited watching Wesley Bryan than watching the big names at Harbour Town? Anyone else? |

Yeah, the whole "so good he's boring" thing doesn't make sense to me. Going from "We were busy after winning the Masters, didn't have time to prepare" to taking the lead today was great. But watching a YouTube underdog go wire to wire was also something.

View Quote Both are great to watch in different ways. I enjoy watching the Bryan Bros on YouTube and really hope Wesley gets another tour win. People don’t seem to realize he won the RBC Heritage in 2017. Scottie may be a boring person, but he’s playing golf that hasn’t been matched since peak Tiger. Best ball striker on the planet and it’s not even close right now. |
