My club fitter pulled the heads off a few of my irons yesterday to increase the weight of them. Found out the tips are all bent in my KBS Tours. Certainly explains a few of the 5 iron shots recently ;) That's the excuse I'm going to run with!

He mentioned it can happen with that shaft for a stronger hitter as they are not as strong in the tip. He suggested DG x100's. the retail cost is crazy. I'm thinking Project X 7.0's, but that is a guess at this stage.

Can anyone who knows about shafts suggest an alternative stronger iron shaft so I have some options, or even better have a set 3-PW or 4-PW of iron shafts around they may be interested in offloading?

Px 7s would be insanely stiff.

6 are fairly stout, 6.5 very, very stiff.

Thanks. The 6.5's might be a bit more available on the bay hopefully.

Hux, are they tours or c-tapers. Just looking at their website. Couple of different options by the look of it. Just want to be sure exactly what they are. Cost?

How fast do you swing a driver, Matty?

I've had PX 6.0's and didn't think they were that stiff but not hit 6.5's or 7.0's which I think would be massively stiff.

Yeah, to Sydney. Sounds good Hux. I'll let you know by tomorrow night. Want to see if other options pop up. But first dibs if you get a PM pls ;)

Will possibly go with them again. Know what I'm getting and can look at other stuff over the next 6-12 months.

I use 6.5's at present they are solid but mine are flighted so they get a bit of joy from that as opposed to the rifles. Driver swing would be around 110 to 115 speed wise if that is any help.

Swings like a packet of wild untamed poop tickets however.
