Went to Edwin watts and they don't sell shafts. (Weird)

Who in BR should I go to?

Hit different shaft options at Edwin watts or ducks then order off Amazon

Your options are limited. Watts will have some shafts but not many. Word is the TM rep isn't that great so they don't have an array of options at Watts for TM offerings. Best bet is a Demo Day somewhere

Demo days are the best place to try new clubs. If you happen to be traveling, stop in a PGA Super Store. They have everything.

Thanks guys

I'm not that damn picky.. I just want something similar to what was in my old R7 limited (Matrix Ozik X-Con 5.5 MOI. 60 gram I think)

The 63 gram hzrdous that I have in M1 just seems to heavy or that it's getting stuck

probably getting stuck. heavier shaft will reveal your swing flaws by preventing you from easily manipulating the club into a hitting position. try to get your trail elbow in front of your hip on the downswing like you're skipping a stone. if you can't do that, you're gonna be stuck and have to flip.

90% of your posts here are so overly technical they're pointless.

I would just go on eBay, find this shaft. And have someone take your sleeve off your current shaft and put it on the shaft you like.
Robert Patt in denham does all my club work. Very good

It's not the technical point that is the problem, it's that he's flat out wrong almost every time.

If I thought about my golf swing as much as he does I wouldn't break 100.

yet you have yet to point out what i'm wrong about. all you do is


further, what makes you a fricking authority on the golf swing? what makes you so qualified that your advice is above reproach?

Nevada bobs in Covington on the northshore has a good selection of shafts if you want to give them a call and see if they can help

What is your swing speed? What flex you got in there? If its a heavier than your use to and you're playing a 6.0, then I am going with it is to stiff and you're having trouble loading it. I'd see if edwin watts has any on the used rack with a 5.5 and see if they'd let you trade it in. That will "feel" closer to the xcon you got in the other club flex wise.

I don't know if you travel to Lafayette much, but I like dealing with the men at Golf Connection. They will get you a shaft and anything else you need.
