Shafts

[Latty08]

I have a RBz driver which I have been struggling to hits straight,well it starts straight but then fades right

It is is fitted with a stiff matrix ozik does can anyone help if I change the shaft to a better make will help me out with my hitting

Also my old driver was ping k15 which was great

Doubt if a different shaft will make much difference(Maybe wrong though). Sounds more like a swing thing. Is it just a fade or a slice. If it is just a fade set up on the right hand side of the tee box. Aim to the left and let the ball, fade back to the center of the fairway. Gives you the whole fairway to play with.

I think I slice more of the time I think maybe were I had a reg shaft in my k15 and going to a stiff shaft in my RBz

I have this shaft and it provides me a super long draw......so I guess it's a swing thing as suggested. You may find a better match, but are unlikely to find a complete 'solution' from the shaft alone.

Maybe the shaft is to stiff then. But I'm no expert on shafts. Ethan is your man for shafts. I only tend to know what I like really.

the K15 is an antislice driver too so maybe you need to set the face closed a touch,

I am going to try a regular shaft and see how we go

Starts straight - Face Angle is correct. Fades - Swing path Out to In.

It's your swing, not the shaft. Absolutely nothing wrong with Matrix as a brand, though unsure whether quality has stayed ultra-high since getting into the 'Made for' market, Those I've hit have felt pretty good though.

Regular may help distance, but you may find you lose control - hitting bad shots both left and right.

How fast do you swing - how far on a good hit? And what sort of swing do you have - smooth, aggressive? How much do you weigh? Athletic? Quick hands?

Lots of different parameters as to what shaft might be 'best' for you - at the moment, let alone in the future. Changeable shafts do give you the facility to try things out though.

Good Luck

BTW. If your K15 was 'great', why did you change?

I suggest a lesson in the Queens own English for a start!
