  1. I prefer the Rifle Project X's and here is why...

    The project X, as all the other rifles, has the better number system than dynamic gold.  You can get the shafts more specialized for your swing speed, such as 5.0, 5.5, 6.0, 6.5 and so on, whereas the Dynamic blacks only come in X, S, R, or A.  I dunno about you, but for the better golfers I would like to see a Dynamic black in a soft X or strong S like the rifles offer.  As for feel, Im used to the rifles so thats the one I like.  The blacks just seem a little flimsy for me, but thats because im in between a stiff and an X, and I hit the stiff.  Plus, I think the rifles are easier to work, and a little more forgiving in my opinion, but the blacks seem to go farther.  

    Hope that helps.


  2. My swing speed with the driver is 94 mph. I like DGS300 Super Lites, Project X 5.5, but, the cream of the crop is the Nippon 950 flighted. These are advertised as an attacking shaft. They aren't kidding. The ball sizzles off the irons. It will bring a tear to your eye.

    Interesting question. I've played with a few different True Temper shafts and hit just about every shaft on the market.

    I've got to tell you, for me, Dynamic Gold's are the best 'feeling' shaft.

    I've played flighted Rifle's, and the Apollo 'Hump' shafts and neither of those two shafts gave me the flight and the feel of the Gold's.

    When I get on the True Temper website and fit myself for shafts, it spits out the Black Gold for me.....I've never hit that shaft, I'd be curious to see what it feels like.

    The project X Rifle feels ok, the flighted rifles just seem to be hard to hit for me, I like the little extra help getting the ball in the air that the Gold's give me.

    Good question.
