puppy Posted November 20, 2009 Report Share Posted November 20, 2009 Hello there. I'm interested in selecting a Diamana shaft for a new driver. Current set up is Titleist 983K 9.5 with Grafalloy Blue Stiff 45". I play to scratch. I tend to hit down on the ball a bit and while I don't have textbook launch numbers, what I don't achieve in carry I usually recover in roll. My goal is to launch the ball higher for increased carry without creating the excess spin that I usually get with 10.5 drivers. I've settled on the Titleist 909D Comp 9.5 and have good launch numbers with the made for Titleist Diamana Stiff, but control is an issue due this shaft's 4.5 torque. While I have become accustomed to the 63g Grafalloy Blue shaft, I've noticed that I always seem to hit 70g shafts well, perhaps due to the reduced torque usually found in such shafts. I was considering the 73S Blueboard with the 3.0 torque, although I was also wondering if the 73 ilima or 73 Redboard would be as good or better choices. * Swing Speed (mph or m/s) 95-99 * Driver distance (yds) 240-260 * Tempo (Slow, Reg, Fast) REG * Transition (Smooth, Average, Aggressive) AVERAGE TO SEMI-AGGRESSIVE * Wrist lag (Minimal, Average, Lots) TRUE TEMPER SHAFT LAB INDICATES NOT MUCH LAG * Usual ball flight (Low, Medium, High) LOW TO MEDIUM * Desired Flight (Low, Medium, High) MEDIUM * Desired Weight (60g, 70g, 80g range) 60 or 70 * Bad shot (Right or Left) RIGHT BLOCK * Current shaft specs (if available) GRAFALLOY BLUE STIFF 63g * What are you looking for in a shaft?
