Shaft Optimisation

Steve, these figures are longer than I hit it especially into a head wind, average of over 240 is long IMO.


Just think how much further you'll hit it with the new i20 driver!

Jon i was fitted for 10.5 degree but the fitter notched it down to 9.5 and i got better results from that,just watch they don't have it set for Tennesee at 40 degrees and no wind and giving you 300 carry haha. Is it just the Mizuno your looking at or have you others in mind ?

Ha! No, Mizuno is top of the list but am looking to try Cally, Ping etc as well, see which one comes out on top. Just need something more forgiving.
 
Good hitting Steve. your stats look very similar to mine , although I really suffered with dispersion when i went to a 9 degree from an 11, so i've stuck with my i15. On a launch monitor I managed to get a couple of 260 yard carries with a Cleveland SL but overall my accuracy was a lot poorer. I'm dying to give the i20 a crack with the project X shaft and see how it goes.
 
I'd be interested to see your carry stats relative to spin and launch angle with no wind or even downwind as head winds tend to exaggerate the effects of spin.

You know that JPX800 will be filling your bag soon.

Seriously, when I was trying drivers before I bought mine, the Cobra S3 was a close second and, quite surprisingly, the Adams Speedline was third.

I was suprised as well mate but i was nailing it into that wind, i get plenty practise thats for sure, i20 is nice with the PX Shaft mmmmmm. Am afraid i don't think i could get any better looking to see how it goes tomorrow and Saturday.

Now set at 9.5 degrees, Sole Plate to Open and the heavy weight in the toe,getting a good flight and very straight,hopefully will be like tomorrow and saturday.

How is yours set up and what shaft have you got ?

Ive not had my pro pal watch me hit it since I picked it up but at the moment it's set with closed face, heavy weight in the toe and Standard loft (10.5).
It's fitted with the custom shaft he recomended for me - Tp matrix ozik hd6 stiff shaft.
Thats the newer version of the shaft I used in my R9.
Hitting it well so far, but will get him to tinker with it once the warmer weather comes.
