Due to a recent new shaft install I found out the swing weight on my driver and the repair guy and myself were a bit surprised so I thought I'd try and find some answers.
He measured my current setup (Callaway Alpha 815 w/Diamana S+ 62g stiff) fully assembled it came out D6. He rechecked it with the new Yellow HZRDUS in it and still came out D6. I don't know much about swing weight or how much it can affect anything except feel but we were a bit surprised by this for a couple reasons. He said that was pretty heavy for a driver.
1. According to Callaway's info the Alpha 815 with the Diamana S+ the swing weight is D4.
2. I have read things about the yellow HZRDUS that says its a counterbalanced shaft and could change swing weight up to 3 points lighter.
So what is making the setup heavier? Just trying to learn something here.
