right combo of shaft and head
[QUOTE=Dr Shteeve]I disagree with the advice to ignore the shaft. Read the most recent issue of Golf magazine - getting the right combo of shaft and head for your swing is potentially a 10 stroke swing.
However, your likelihood of finding someone who has played these particular shafts is small. With the irons I am considering, I will try to demo the iron/shafts and even buy a single iron to demo/shaft before I make my purchase decision.[/QUOTE]
well i'm too lazy or busy golfing to drive over to another golf place that may have 'em. most local stores carry permimetered or CB irons...the best that i've seen in my local Coplands is the MP-32s (nice!).
so i spent $55 on a 4-iron Titleist 690.MB with S300, closest proximity i can easily get my hands on: it's tough, but it's manageable: i like it...alot. i can see that from testing other Titleist clubs that flex could help for more consistancy of trajectory so i may go with R300s, but while i may foolishly ignore my pro on the choice of the iron head i'd rather apply what he advised me on the shaft (light and stiff steel).
