I am sure some of you have seen the TXG videos on this thing. From the first looks they look absolutely insane. Does anyone have more intel?

TXG is the source of all Intel. lol

Here is another deep dive. http://www.golfwrx.com/627608/koreas-autoflex-shaft-challenging-the-conventional-wisdom-of-golf/

First Adam Scott. Now Boom Boom

dphatt The absolute perfect candidate regarding the almost required smoother than silk swing. Once I get to test mine they are either going to be 100% in the bag or the shortest lived item for sale on the TeesandCoins classifieds for me.

Adam Scott is hitting bombs today with autoflex. Ball speed consistently in the 180s. Maybe I can get mine to 150 😂

vincent but has he hit a fairway yet? 😉

Really? Tape at the bottom of the shaft? So I spent $800+ on a shaft and thats how to make it stiffer? 🤷♂️

I am waiting for AF to start selling 5in stability tape for $100 🤪

dphatt Yo, what in the actual F???

AutoFlex shafts

Jaybananapantsarthur Not entirely sure I understand. You’re saying you dig Ventus Blue but didn’t like AF? Yes, that would make you an exception. Hence why I said it’s a theory that’s bound to have some exceptions and not a water tight correlation. Giphy - Reaction GIF

Chubbs01 correct and correct and correct

dphatt

I am waiting for @Noyes26 to respond here. 30-40 yards past his SIM2 with the Ventus BLACK and down the middle

DaHOF

Chubbs01 I actually don't disagree with the theory. Frankly, it's one of the reasons that played into me giving it a shot.

Chubbs01

DaHOF plenty of other reasons why it can be a tough transition, of course. A player using a mid 70s gram driver shaft, for example…

I will give AutoFlex this; it’s quite polarizing.

Noyes26

I hit autoflex longer than @dphatt. That’s all that really matters.

dphatt

Noyes26 what really matters is you hit a 3 year old Callaway club better than your “fitted” TaylorMade

Chubbs01 It felt like swinging one of those orange ball stick training aids, took me 20 minutes to adjust back to my normal driver shaft

Chubbs01

maxbianchi that was my experience as well, best descriptor I could come up with was “rubbery”.

Haughdaddy

I took the AutoFlex out today to play in our men’s league and it was terrible. I just kept hitting the low pulls. I hit it in a Max LS with the back weight removed. So after the round I went back out with my gamer (Max LS with Ventus Black 6x) and it was night and day difference. Like Max said earlier, it’s fun to mess around on the range, but I could never tee it up in a serious round and have confidence in it.

Haughdaddy low pulls, not like you

Benzo

Haughdaddy so…you got one for sale??

Jaybananapantsarthur

I think I hit it once in Florida, maybe twice. Didn't work out for me like it has for others. Wet noodle.

DaHOF

The polarizing reviews on this thing blow my mind. I can say, I at least didn't have a single low pull with it. We shall see tomorrow with my second round of giving it a go.

OffTheDole

Thanks to @Haughdaddy I was able to try the Autoflex on some Callaway heads with TrackMan to verify results.

I did get a little more clubhead speed out of it, like ₂-3 mph but it didn't translate into more ball speed. The Ventus blue 7S was a better fit for me, which was a surprise.

Benzo

one round and one range session complete….

I’m between a +1 and a 1 with driving being a strong part of my game. Driver SS usually 107-112. Typically play a cut or straight ball but can hook it with the best of them.

i have the 505XX and played it with stock head/weight/loft (10.5) of a sim max. I hit it higher and just about the same cut/straight ball with it but just seemed to carry further. Today was very wet but had a couple laser measured 265-275 all carry drives.

it will stay in the bag. Really fun to hit!

ckay

Benzo What length are you playing it at?

dphatt

All aboard

I’m still on the AF train. Been a fun ride. Hopefully it stays in the bag for a while.
