Switching to lighter shafts.

[jecko]

Hi all,

I will be getting a new set of irons really soon from a new sponsor and I am strongly hesitating on what shafts to get.

I currently play the Rifle Flighted 6.0 and my swing speed with a 6-iron is around 100mph.

All I know about my new shafts: I want them light!

Any recommendations? Experiences?

Thanks in advance..

NS pro, is a good company, they make light shafts, not many men play them on the mini or PGA tour but a few LPGA players use them.

They produce a higher ball flight and play weak to flex. They look and feel good but to the majority of U.S players they are too soft and hit to high.

I just hit the 1150 shaft from them and its no Gem IMO, Its a heavy NS shaft that still balloons the ball for my swing.

I have not hit the GD SL shafts yet.

Thank you for your reply.

I have a NS 950 in my 2 iron and I don't miss a shot!

I also tried the 950's in Srixon I-302s and didn't find them too whippy.. I actually really liked them!

That is why I am confused when I read some posts on this board saying some guys are playing 950's in a stiff flex and have an 80mph SS...

I really want to go light..! I think the 1150s are probably too close to what I play now.

Haven't tried the DG SL either... but not sure I'll like them as I'm not a big fan of the original DGs..
