Thanks for putting this up OP. Just this past Wednesday, during my lesson, my pro asked me the weight on my driver shaft. He looked at slow mo video of a couple swings to try and figure out why I was getting the ball way too high in the air and he saw this:
I have the stock 60g shaft (stiff) from the 2014 BB Alpha on my 2014 BB, 10.5* and I can't keep the ball down. He grabbed his 9.5* R15 with a 65g shaft and I hit it exactly the same and flexed the shaft the same way. I don't think I've ever exceeded 100mph club head speed on a launch monitor but I've never been swinging well when going on one, so I'm not sure what to think. He wants to use 30 mins of my next lesson to put me on a monitor and possibly get me fitted to a new shaft.
He seems to think I need a much heavier shaft, but would weight or flex be the reason for the flexing in the shaft seen in the above pics? Personally I think it's a factor of a little early release of the club head but I don't know what the Hell I'm talking about.
