Japanese Golf Gear / Seven Dreamers Fitting

« Last post by wmclarenf1 on March 19, 2019, 11:33:41 PM »

Well a quasi fitting... at the 7D studio at KLCC Kuala Lumpur. Basically told the guy I had a low 60s 12.6 flex 7D which I found a tad stiff at times and wanted to try something in the high 50 gram range and with a cpm of 245 to 250.

Tried a few shafts ranging from low 50 grams to a 60 and with cpm ranging from 242 to 260. Mid and low kick shafts as well.

Turns out a 57 gram mid kick 257 cpm shaft playing to 45 was best for me. dispersion was fantastic with maybe 10% of misses a slight fade. Rest were right down the middle straight or slight fade which is my preferred shot shape.

The low kick shafts had bad eratic dispersion with misses right and left. Maybe that's why I get a long better with my mid kicking shafts being the Crazy 9 Dia, mavc80, COA 5 and COA California.

Will look to move on my low kicking shafts if the pxg session suggests the same.

My swing speed that day ranged from 93 to 97 mph. Spin range was 1900 to 4000. With the desired mid kicking shaft, it was in high 2000s. Lauch angles was 12 to 13.x degrees and I had smash factors of 1.5 at times or high 1.4s.. The former makes me suspect as it's supposed to be near impossible get that no? Distance avg was low 250s but very little roll. Less than 10 yards on all except 1 drive. Could be the 9.5 2016 TM m2 head. Maybe with a jdm head I'll get better roll.

Not too sure which of the following charts is more accurate but I'm glad to know that my launch angle and spin rates are no longer crazy like it was maybe 10 years back.

Btw, the new kamui foamed nitro is impressive and feels better than old versions. Stop a firm face but doesn't seem as hard. Twacky feel and sound given the foam. Runs a lot.

This should help narrow down flex selection for the Daytona.

Nice. I'm reading the new hybrid to be the silent star of the new range. Do feedback asap.

The snow is gone and the ground is thawing out. Will have some temps into the 50s this week. It’s 53 right now which would totally be playable if the ground wasn’t mush due to the frost coming out of it after 3-4 months.

I haven’t swung a club since fall but Sunday which coincidentally is my birthday we are doing our annual “wing and swing” where we go to the simulator in Orland Park and play a round of 18 then go to hooters and eat wings drink beer and watch college basketball tournament games all afternoon.

I sold all my stuff and got some 785 srixon irons, the new PXG driver and hybrid, and M5 driver and FW. Keeping my tried and trusted Srixon U45, Forged Vokeys, PM wedge, and ugly spaceship putter.
