So tonight I'm starting my analysis of 3 different graphite shaft weights. 85g 95g and 105g. My own shift to graphite this year and the realization of the fairly shocking performance I wanted to experiment with the different shaft weights. The OEM offerings are getting lighter and lighter all the time. I have 3-8 iron heads and 3-5 iron heads. They will be mounted onto 2-85g, 2-95g and so on. All shafts will be S flex standard graphite length. I will have them on a monitor tested by at least 5 golfers of varying HP. From a teaching Pro to about a 15.
The heads are from Golfworks. They the Maltby Ke4 tour + heads. They have a weight port to dial in swing weight but I'm not going to play with the the weights for now.
The shafts are the AXE Tour X shafts. They are a hybrid shaft of sorts with a metal weave over graphite. Great feel and performance has been shockingly good.
It will be interesting to see distance differences, height differences, dispersion and personal likes.
I should have all date collected and posted by next Wednesday. I'll have some data to post by Saturday night. Should be interesting.
So the clubs are built and ready to go. They were all spine aligned and I made sure they were all exact in length and on the tip trimming. I do have to say how good looking these heads are. It's a maltby design that has been tweaked for maybe 5 renditions.
