I played it in the SR flex for a few rounds in the AF102. I loved the combo. Hard kick, smooth acclerating power. I do believe it launched pretty high.

Spoon Posted April 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2010 I played it in the SR flex for a few rounds in the AF102. I loved the combo. Hard kick, smooth acclerating power. I do believe it launched pretty high. i am gaming the af102 10.5 with the new oban tour proto v430 S. i left it untipped but i am still noticing some spin. i had better results with my 151 w devotion 65 s tipped .5". i am playing the tour proto 102 combo at 45.5" so i have .5" to trim, not sure if it will make a difference though. dont know if its the shaft, the 10.5* head or both. just debating on wether to get the di6s or x. the obans play softer to flex due to the fact they can be trimmed.

pabsquid Posted April 5, 2010 Report Share Posted April 5, 2010 Spoon, I played mine for a little bit as it was the stock shaft in my Yamaha V201 Tourmodel. I found it to be too light and was getting too much movement (it was a flex too soft for me as well). I'd say trajectory is mid+ and is more smooth rather than hard kicking. I think I prefer that kind of feel in my fairway woods, along with a thicker face, but in the driver I like a good active feeling stiffer shaft with a hotter face to pair with it. I hit an X-stiff motore f1 today that I thought was pretty decent and it was fairly similar to the DI6 I thought despite being slightly heavier in the low 70g range comboed with a TM Supertri TP.

+TourSpecGolfer Posted April 5, 2010 Report Share Posted April 5, 2010 I think the DI-6 has more feel than the Motore. I didn't have the weight issue with it, felt perfect to me but then again I don't mind playing light shafts. Try a DI-7 or 8 maybe. We all have different swings. I played several rounds with the 102 DI-6 SR and like B said it was smooth and hard kicking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I played several rounds with the 102 DI-6 SR and like B said it was smooth and hard kicking. do they play true to flex? im debating between the 65x and the 75s. i could use the extra weight but unsure about the flex. my current shaft on the 102 has too much spin and i dont want to go to a lower lofted driver. btw saw tiger using the DI in his practice rounds. lets see if it makes it to thursday!
