    I actually got fit for this shaft and I play them now. I’m the high spin player you were looking for. On GCQuad the shaft lowered my spin rate by about 400 rpm. I play them in the T100S model and they work great for me. I’m a +3 handicap and these clubs really took me to the next level. I’m glad this video justified my purchase.

    I was recently fitted for the shafts and I absolutely love them. As a play swinging my irons between 90 and 95 mph. This shaft enabled me to be fitted into a players distance iron (APEX Pro) but keep the spin down on those hollow body irons. So I am now able to benefit from the forgiveness that the hollow irons provide without suffering from the enhanced flight and spin that they also provide. I feel completely confident in this set up in my ball and dispersion rate shrunk exponentially with this pairing.

    Haha if you are looking for a guy who struggles with high spin...look no further. I hit it about the same speed as Ian and my ball is affected by the wind far more than anyone I know. A 30 km headwind is a 3 club wind for me. Some of my buddies who hit it the same distances rarely ever have to drop more than 1 club. These shafts may help me. Thanks for the info!

    I was just fit for P7MCs and this exact shaft. I create a lot of pinch on the ball and create a lot of spin. Always loved dropping a 4ir into a firm green with almost no roll for my dad and uncles - they got a kick out of it.
    But it gets silly in the lower ranges.
    On the Trackman, I think the shaft shaved off 300-500rpm and produced a wonderful flight and perfect landing angle. Shots feel incredible.

  • @ronlandry7672
    @ronlandry7672 4 года назад

    Saw the video title and thought "hmm i wonder if i generally would fit into this"
    Plays a low spin Ball CHECK
    Plays a stronger lofted iron CHECK CHECK
    Has a balloony (is that a word? like traj?) ball flight TRIPLE CHECK!
    Real eye opening especially in regards to the dispersion. Agree that a golfer wouldn't see a dramatic difference in spin / launch but i would think if the flight and feel is matched up with the golfers profile, it should increase a golfers confidence, which would turn into better shots.
    Interesting if you take the extreme, lowest spinning ball, that shaft and low lofted irons and see the results with the golfer that fits the profile True Temper is marketing this to.

    Played ctapers 130 for a year and just switched to the px ls 7.0. What I love about these shafts is that even though they are firm and stable (aka boardy), you can still feel what's going on at the tip. Unlike the ctapers that just felt all around dead.

    Fun Fact thanks to Matty Boy...CliffsNotes was started by Nebraska native Clifton Hillegass in 1958. He was working at Nebraska Book Company of Lincoln, Nebraska, when he met Jack Cole, the co-owner of Coles, a Toronto book business. Coles published a series of Canadian study guides called Coles Notes, and sold Hillegass the U.S. rights to the guides.

    I think that's a shaft I may have to try. My fitter put me into the Tour V to try and lower my spin and launch. As a sweeper/picker I have no problem adding dynamic loft to an iron and it naturally makes the spin and launch a bit high.

Anyhow, quick question if I may, I really struggle with spin in my irons and have recently been fitted for Project X 6.0. Am I right to assume that Project X LS 6.0 is likely to be even better for me? Is Project X 6.0 the same stiffness as Project X LS 6.0 but just with more spin? OR is the LS shaft generally slightly stiffer???? Thanks & please keep up the great videos!!!

    Eventually settled on the Z785, in the KBS $taper. That was the only shaft that I managed to spin at sub 8000 on average. Was spinning my own Callaway Apex cf16 in project x 6.0 over 8000. Is that the high spin you mean? I’d pop by but I’m in Nottingham England 😆.

    I may have missed it, but was Matty hitting the 6.5 or 7.0 in the LS ?

    Would the spin effect on shorter irons be more significant than a 6 iron?

    I still can't understand how Matt isn't at least a mini-tour player with that ball striking...

    Why not weaken matts lofts 2 degrees and rock the LS. Now u have modus 130 spin rate and launch as well as the LS ball speed and dispersion

    I don't know why but I was expecting spin to drop more 😂 least they do their job at dropping spin

    Wasn't a T200 a high spinning head for Matt?
