Crw. If I gave you a blank shaft that had a torque of 2.7 and one with 2.9 I would be very surprised if you could tell me which was which.

Ridiculously confident in this club this morning. Some range time and straight to the course and not sure what did it, but this is clicking for me right now.
Confidence in the tee is what I always look for to spark my game, an right now, I am hammering the SLDR. All 14* of lofted uppness.

I just traded mine in. I couldn't hit it well. if I pured it, yes it was very long but I had an extremely difficult time shaping shots. In all fairness this was also with the stock stiff shaft that I know for a fact is not good for me. I had the face set open and the weight all the way on fade so I could hit it straight. off center hits imo were not forgiving..at all. maybe if I reshafted it I may have had better luck with it but to pay 400 bucks for a driver and then invest another 125 for a good shaft and hoping I like it didn't seem like a good idea. im using the big bertha which even with the stock shaft feels better than the sldr on a good day
Most amateurs cant. and of course the lack of standard in testing and it's a number that is common to be discussed on the interwebz for some reason and every time we have tested groups of them to determine if they could tell high and low torque it confirmed the above.
but then again so did a whole lot more with shafts and amateurs.
Talk about a purely honest post right there. Glad you are working though the issues and now seeing the results of all that work. What length are you playing this at right now? I know we talked in the past about playing one at a much shorter length than the stock setup to help get that desired contact position.
44.5", took an inch off the stock shaft.

And to think some have said there isn't truly honest feedback on here...... They need to read that post. Great stuff War, I liked reading through that as the sldr seems to be hit or miss with people. I haven't spent much time with it but it's cool to see what some tinkering and practice time can do
Just another reason we all love it here. Straight up, honest feedback. Good stuffJust calling it as I see it dude.
Links to sites that do not honor embargo dates unfortunately must be removed.
And FWIW I will take live thpers conducting tests on actual golf courses with launch monitors at one of the 15 events held here over a handful of guys hitting on a simulator.
Truly just my take however. I tend to side with actual testing and #OutingApproved type of things more often than not. Definitely not a knock on anybody looking around for info. Knowledge is power.

Meant to add this......I've gripped down on ANY driver over 45" so playing length is about the same .
Then GG has her own rule.
Don't be a D-Bag or suffer her wrath (her words, not mine).
Not to make light...
but lol... that's a good rule
