  1. The shaft comparison chart says that the Phemon 80 would be higher launching but it's heavier with lower torque.. are we sure?

    Hi Jim,

    Thank you for the question.

    The Diamana D+ White 82 has a stiffer tip giving it a higher kick point than Phenom 80. So, for most players, it will launch the ball lower than Phenom 80. Again that is for most players and individual swing types can yield to different results. The 3 gram weight difference between the two S-flexes is not significant. Phenom 80 does have lower torque than White 82, which is why it shows as lower spinning than White 82. The shaft chart comparison is a great tool and I use it every day. However, as you know everyone’s swing is different and what a shaft says it does on paper is not always the result every player sees. It is best to get fit by a certified fitter to find which shaft is the right one for your swing.

    Thanks

    Will

  3. Hi Will,

    Can you recommend a resource which explains each of the aspects of the shaft comparison chart in layman's terms. I agree that a certified fitter is the best approach yet I'd like to better prepare for the fitting. Thanks for being there for all of us.
