I'm a freaking idiot by the way.

So I was bitching about the BF60 turning over too much, especially when I play a hard fade. Well I have it set at one click higher than normal and the SIM weight in the heel.

Set it back to standard, threw the weight up in the toe, and high soft draws, which for me, NEVER happens, I'm king fader. So we will see how this goes, but BF back in the bag. The saga continues.

And for elbow pain people like me, softer tipped shafts definitely make a difference, when you get jammed up with a tip stiff shaft and that thing doesn't kick, it hurts, a lot.

Welp....with all the speed I've gained from the G box...I'm going to test out an X flex.

Just ordered a Oban Kiyoshi HB 65g X flex. V excited.

Eddie How does the BF compare to the Ventus Blue in the SIM? Really wanting the SIM to find a place in my bag but haven't found the right combo yet.

Similar but the tip section on the BF is soft. I made the mistake of not tipping my BF, really wishing I had just a little bit, but otherwise, pretty similar.

    Little bummed. The shaft came in and I failed to realize the G410 is a different adapter than last years model. I had to scramble to find someone to swap adapters. Now I guess I'm stuck with it...and either X flex works or it doesn't. lol!

    Eddie it’s just different. My g410 goes all the way to -1.5°. The old one only goes -1°. Diameters/screws are different too.

    So I put the g410 on the oban shaft and it’s curing now. Should be ready tomorrow.

      Eddie Just saw this. Shaft is a different animal than my AD IZ. Loads different and I feel the driver head a lot more than I used to. First couple rounds were garbage and I seemed to be pulling everything. The last two rounds however, holy cow, it's amazing. Adjusted the swing a bit on loading it, able to just swing hard now and it's further than my old setup and more accurate. I have more confidence (as of today, haha) of swinging freely and not losing it. Big fan with a couple of rounds in. We shall see if the honeymoon phase continues or not.

      Well the Oban Kiyoshi HB 65g X flex might be the ticket! Laser beams and no more right miss! (I’m a lefty)

      Good to hear, makes sense as it's a soft butt with a stiff tip shaft, typically feel the head more for sure. How are the graphics? Do they look cool at address? Because, you know, that's what I care about LOL.

      Eddie They look totally bad ass! I will get some pics next week!

      Unfortunately, when I told the guy who installed how I wanted it inserted (Big Minus (-1.5º), he didn't understand and now the graphics are facing like 45º to the right. lol!

      Next up, zf60.

      initial trackman sessions were promising 🧐

      Bought a new shaft and head yesterday. Mail day awaits 🤞. Should be interesting...

        Eddie how are you getting along with the ZF? Thinking about going 60TX and eyeballing how it compares to the Tensei PW. The PW is a great shaft for me. The TZ6 is proving to be an excellent shaft itself but I am having an issue with centering the impact as it does play 2-3 SW points higher than my PW.

          So far pretty decent. The bottom half of the shaft feels much firmer than the BF, which is what I was looking for. By firmer I guess I mean less torquey.

          In terms of swingweighting, pretty standard. BF, DF, ZF all swingweighted within one point of each other so there shouldn’t be any surprises there.

            put this combo in play the last two weeks.

            Triple Diamond set at 8 degrees, weight to full draw. Shaft plays 44 inches.

            Could be the most solid setup I've had in years. The T1100 seems to fit perfectly with how I deliver the club, results in mid flight, what appears to be low spinning, a fitting studio near me opens in two weeks so I can get proper numbers.

            Have not been fit for a driver in almost 4 years now, too much self tinkering, which needs to stop.

            Has anyone had experiences with the T1100 and the Hulk and could shed some light on a comparison?

            The Hulk shaft fascinates me for some reason, probably just the chameleon finish, not a great reason at all


            maxbianchi Has anyone had experiences with the T1100

            I had the OG T1100 and my spin rate was 700. Granted I have a +9 AOA.

            Can you say knuckle ball? lol
