'16 Grandaddy Champ - Team Unity
I've never had that much technical knowledge about shafts until I got back into the game a while back.
I was fit into a certain driver shaft at The Grandaddy despite having a horrible, horrible swing that day. My swing has improved a good bit since both in tempo and plane.
I am playing a Diamana D+ 60 X flex in my Epic SZ and I also have a Diamana BF 60 X. My observation with the Whiteboard is that I like a lot with a couple of exceptions.
1. Feel...I'm not sure if the word is harsh or "boardy" as I've yet to see what that means in the THP shaft nerd dictionary but it just doesn't feel as smooth as some of the other shafts I've tried.
2. Weight - that's easily resolved by bumping up 10g.
3. I'm not sure what trajectory I should be looking for. I get a fairly high trajectory with this but thankfully it keeps going.
The BF feels better but side to side dispersion is worse and the ball seems to drop out of the air at a certain point leaving my shots significantly shorter than the D+.
What else have I tried?
I tried a Matrix 75M4 X in the Superstore and the feel was fantastic and side to side dispersion was pretty good. Pretty good carry and 8-10 yards of rollout on the monitor.
I haven't tried but have been curious about the HZRDUS Black.
Anything else I should be looking at? Swing speed is 120ish with quite a bit of lag, fairly quick tempo.
Ultimately, I'm going to game the Whiteboard unless I find something better...I've hit some stupid good drives with it, I just wish it felt better.
