Thanks for the clarification as usual a little more matter of fact and substantiated.
Thanks
PS. I now have access to the plans

The recent discussion on Lob Wedge Swingweighting got me thinking. Based on
a lot of personal experimentation and a recent corroborating Shaft Lab
session I'm probably going to reshaft my irons. I'm currently using Titleist
962s with DG S300s.
Since the 962s have a tapered hosel bore, I have two
I talked to a guy today that told me he has a 110 mph swing, likes
reg irons and X flex shafts. Said he feels he gets more roll and
total distance (maybe a little less carry) and hits it a lot
straighter. Has anyone had any experience (and luck) going over
their heads with super stiff X flex
Some random thoughts:
Taper vs parallel INSIDE the hosel I believe doesn't matter. The hosel
has much more resistance to flex characteristics than shaft does at this
point. If all OUTSIDE the hosel characteristics are the same between the
2, then expect the same performance. I'm not aware of
John,
There is an old axiom in fitting that says put them in the longest softest
shaft they can hit properly. First of all, what ball flight are you trying
to change? A mandatory part of fitting is that it feels good. Going with
XX shafts will have to feel good and the golfer will have to

It is the old axiom (axiom's, axia?) that I always wonder
about...I've mentioned before my favorite book is How We Know What
Isn't So.
I've always followed the longest/softest theory and never tried
shafting up the ol' telephone pole and simply wondered if the
longer/softer theory was
Of course there is another axiom that says never test a new club in cold
weather. Therefore, you must go south to test the new club. I am available.

John,
In theory the old axiom works. You can hit a softer flex
almost as long as stiffer flex and usually more accurate. I've
never put much store in it and I think it drove Britt Lindsay and
Mike Dugan nuts. They had me hit the stiffest shafted driver at GS and the
most flexible. I did hit the
