Hey John...that Harrison UL3.5 isn't any better than the others, it was just grateful to you for pulling it out of the barrel. After a week or so, it'll remember who you are and treat you just as badly as those other clubs <GRIN>

I was stuck in the "as soft as you can control" thought process and never bothered to "think outside the box" (I just made that up, think it will become cliche?) I always thought I should be hitting a firm or soft stiff and sort of adjusted my swing to fit that when I played with those flexes so I could hit the ball with some consistency. If the shaft has a soft or flexible feel, I'd slow my swing down, stiffer and I'd cut loose a bit. I've also found that the better shaft manufacturers actually seem to be remarkably consistent...an AJ Tech/Apache/SK Fiber/Graphite Design/Accuflex/Penley R flex is an R flex. The only one that seems a bit out of whack is Harrison, which seem to play stiffer. On that note, I pulled my old beat Peerless Steel PHD 7 wood with a Harrison UL3.5 f/s flex shaft out of my old club barrel a few weeks ago. I have NEVER hit a bad shot with that club, screwed around with other 7 woods for the past 4 or 5 years and brought it back and still have not hit a bad shot with it. The Harrison UL3.5 is the world's first perfect shaft. For everyone. Finally the debate is resolved. Rambling is over. -- Thanks!
