    Scientifically impossible that a change in shafts alone will produce 20+ extra yrds. Sounds like more than a shaft change was performed here. Still, 20 yrds. !!!!!

    I agree, especially if the person has a one handicap.

    The previous shafts were too stiff so I was hitting the ball too low. And yes, I gained about 20 yards on each iron, I'm also a kid so I'm still growing so that could have something to do with it. The lofts weren't straightened, they were frequency and MOI matched as well I believe.

    Outstanding Brian- getting fitted worked out well for you!
    Do you know what method of MOI matching Don used?
    What ball do you use?

    I'm aware of three methods of MOI. One is the Wishon method. Which has a machine that MOI the club head. He sells club heads. The other two are not in the public domain, and, they where not mine. One uses a spreadsheet. The other is a math formula.

    So you all have been fitted yet your handicap has not budged one bit. What gives?

    Thank you for clarifying this issue Brian. It all makes sense now.
