Regular shaft driver spraying right

guys,

been trying the new Titleist D1 with a regular shaft 67 gram factory fitted shaft and my ball flight is changed to a fade.

My older club is a stfff 45 gram Cobra 440Sz (sadly now non conforming) and it was like mostly draw and about 20m longer. it was also about half inch shorter.

I thought a regular shaft would make my ball draw more? try as i might I cant get the Titleist to draw naturally! funny thing is that I would never miss the fairway if I carried both for a round of golf.....

any idea why the REG shaft behaves this way? i would like to understand more before I go spend some money on a after-market shaft.


Thanks Guys!!

Re: Regular shaft driver spraying right

It sounds to me like you're overpowering the shaft. Although, conventional wisdom says that because you're slicing, the shaft is too stiff for you

Move to a stiffer shaft.

A couple of quick rules:

1) If you're killing the demo club on the range, BUY THE CLUB IN YOUR HANDS.

2) Always consider an aftermarket shaft. You really can't trust the flex designation on the OEM shaft.
