  • This blind shaft test features three different True Temper Dynamic Gold iron shafts: The Dynamic Gold R300, Dynamic Gold S300, and Dynamic Gold X100. It may surprise some golfers to know that while the shaft flex may vary, the weight of each of these True Temper Dynamic Gold is very similar.
    In this video, 2nd Swing’s Drew Mahowald and Thomas Campbell conduct a blind shaft test with True Temper Dynamic Golf iron shafts. Can Drew guess them correctly?

    Great blind test Guys and welcome back Thomas👍👍
    This demonstrates why I NEVER a fitter to tell me what they are doing (shaft & settings wise) until the end of the fit, just to ensure that I am only responding to the "feel" and the flight/dispersion and not the info being relayed by the fitter.

    So interesting. I love this sort of testing. Would a shaft weight also depend on the club head weight?

  • @rufussthoo4083
    @rufussthoo4083 Год назад +1

    Thomas? Is Thomas back? 😀
    The launch angle was the big difference for me. 2 shafts at around 17* and the other at 14* (and more inconsistent). Looking at the numbers, the X100 seems to suit Drew best (P.S. nice swing speed Drew 👌). Which one did he prefer?
    Also, I'd love to see a 6 shaft comparo - light and heavy versions of R, S and X flex to see how a heavy R compares to a light S, etc. It would be interesting to here your (Drew's?) feedback on feel differences and then see the data.
    Cheers.

    If someone is fitted to a specific shaft/iron head, would it be likely that that shaft will work well in a different(but same category like game improvement) brand head?

  • @MrUlfdub
    @MrUlfdub Год назад

    Hey guys, did you use Taper tip or Parallel shafts in this test? If the shafts are Taper tip, you could tell them apart by looking at the kick points (highest in R, lowest in X). Only if they are UNITIZED (parallel) and you tip trimmed them all properly did you have a fair test! Care to elucidate for us ?

    There’s such big differences in these. I can tell them apart just by a waggle each. What’s a better test is x flex versions in different brands.

      ​@@thehighhandicapgolfer the Dynamic Gold shafts in stiff (124g) are 42 grams heavier than your graphite shafts (82g), which is a big difference. If the current shafts are working for you and you were properly fit for your clubs, there's really no benefit to changing.

    Bit of a strange test (regarding weight) because the weight variations in this lineup are miniscule. But interesting that he really couldn't detect the flex differences.

    I'm guessing they filmed this video with Thomas a few weeks/months ago before the end of 2022, and that Thomas is in fact not "back" since he started a new job this month.

    • @user-ty1wm3cn7n
      @user-ty1wm3cn7n 3 месяца назад

      Momentum. A steel shaft from the top, comes down and through the ball w’ the momentum of gravity. I’d call 105 steels the momma bear 🐻 of shafts, especially the (R) flex.
      Now without CORE MUSCLES of heathy adolescent or College mid life (Men, cuz’ I’m a 66 year old guy..experience answering) - Without a strong healthy core ..people cheat and try to spin their shoulders (at least, I have) and the comfort of graphite shafts (saving your joints at impact) Can be ruined if your graphite purchase has dipped below 95grams because you Yank Spin around and Jank many shots LONG LEFT. - Also I’ll add. IMHO - The Japanese MODUS line of steel shafts are premium. - Secondly - If you haven’t ever hid some JPX Mizuno’s (921/923’s) in a 105 weight (R) ..you have no idea 🤷‍♂️ Where a good cornerstone of Golf exists. Find a Mizuno fitter at any respectable shop. Club Champion etc. And start from that as your Center, and they will evaluate you from there:) Good Luck
