Re: Aldila VS Proto

I have it in my Rapture and liked it from hitting it on the simulator. Now that I've played it outdoors, I changed my mind. I'm having a really hard time turning the ball over with it after 10 years of playing mostly slight draws off the tee. It's really got me mind boggled. I'm right in the middle of the swing speed rating so I can't figure out the problem. When I demo'ed the Rapture with the stock PING shaft, I drew the ball like a champ.

The problem isn't present in any other club, so I'm convinced it has something to do with the shaft flex, torque.

A close friend has it in the Sumo Sq and he's got the exact same problem. He plays a S flex and swings about 100 MPH and I play the X flex and swing 115 MPH on average.
