jakewalsh88 Posted March 12, 2005 Report Share Posted March 12, 2005 I recently bought a callaway GBB II and I like the fell of it but I often hit a snap hooks with it. It came with a aldila nv X flex. Could the flex of the shaft be a problem? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vokester Posted March 12, 2005 Report Share Posted March 12, 2005 it could be, although i think it would be more likely that if you were hooking it, the shaft would be too flexible. hard to believe it would be the shaft cause it is an x flex.

TTLam Posted March 23, 2005 Report Share Posted March 23, 2005 I agree. Whippy clubs cause snap hooks. However, for an X flex to cause snap hooks, you would be entering yourself in the long drive contest! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
golfin4pph Posted June 10, 2005 Report Share Posted June 10, 2005 If the shaft is too whippy it will snap hook go to stiffer shaft. :fever: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sam2011 Posted June 10, 2005 Report Share Posted June 10, 2005 [quote="tsg4tch No. Club face angle & club path do that. indeed...one good way to fix is weaken your grip. the only real way to hit a snap hook or to get your club in that position to hit a snapper is to have a really strong grip that turns over way too early.
