Let me lay this out there 1st. Yes I know that a new driver won't fix swing flaws. I realize that a new shaft also won't fix a swing flaw. I'm not trying to fix a swing flaw, what I am looking to do is tighten it up a little with better feel. I have identified that with my personal swing what feels best to me and what gives me a flight trajectory I like is a mid kick X-Stiff flex driver playing at about 44.25". I don't currently have this setup, but have demoed several drivers in different flexes and lengths and this gives me the best combination of feel and consistency.
So now here is my quandary, I have narrowed my options down to 2 a new shaft for my Cobra Amp Cell, or buying a Taylormade SLDR setup with the X-Flex shaft. I like the impact of my cobra at impact when I get my timing right, but the shaft feels too whippy and hard to time for my swing. It's a stiff flex and I understand the stock shaft plays a bit soft. Shaft wise for the Cobra I am contemplating a Diamana Blue Board. The SLDR drivers I have tried feel a little more solid at impact, less springy, but more solid. I have a SLDR mini and love it with the Speeder 57 shaft in it.
Any thoughts or experience on these options would be much appreciated!
