Try PX 7.0 or TT X7 shafts.

Man I love my dynamic gold x 300's. They are a tad heavier than the s 300's, but it seemed to help me control the ball a little better.

The X7 is the stiffest True Temper shaft that I am aware of but like you said, hard stepping is an option too but stepping it once will only take it up 1/4 of a flex. |

Andrew, another alternative to flight it down is hitting a knock down shot. Irons are your accuracy clubs and that is a great way to improve accuracy. Just another option.

Just wanted to say Welcome to the site! +4 is amazing hence I have no advice to offer as a >-15.

I have no suggestions because I've never seen, much less played with anyone that fast. You're obviously straight as well as long, and at a +4, I would think your equipment was working just fine.
Just curious, where did you play college golf? Which mini tours have to tried? How far have you gotten in Open qualifying? |
