So I did something strange today. A guy at work asked me to build him a set. He is a brginner lefty. He needs the full gambit of clubs. I had everything in my Golfworks and DTG carts ready to go and I was going to charge him $450. I was checking OfferUp for possibly a different driver option. There was a guy selling a full set of lefty clubs for $300. Ping K15 irons 6-Sw, K15 4&5 hybrids, TM R7 woods, Callaway Edge driver, Ping CrazeE putter and a bag. I advised him to buy that set instead of building him a set. Hell of a haul he is getting in my opinion.

I built Mia her set of LogicalOne L1.X irons and L1.XW wedges. She is an EPSON Tour player but is coaching/instructing this year. 😊

Spuzz SMT 455DB 11*/ Matrix Red Tie Proto OC Reg Flex/ Star Sidewinder Red grip/ 45.25"

unbuilt it today
:/
Substituting SMT Babylon 11* now
LOL

I screwed 2 irons together from my demo equipment to test outside on Trackman.

P790 7 iron with a MMT 105 stiff
P790 7 iron 2 degrees weak with a Recoil 780 smac wrap F4 flex.

Then I unscrewed them, switched them up and finally unscrewed them and put them away

    Typhoon So... How were they??? I'm going to guess nothing to really write home about??

      That MMT 105 is a totally overrated shaft, IMO. It’s stiff as hell due to the design and offers little to no feedback.

        Hmmm… a bit biased there Xcalibur 105 salesman 😁. Quite the contrary… I also hit the modus 105 that I’ve had in the Pings for years.

        The MMT to me felt very smooth, ball took off from the face with tight dispersion and ball speed was better than any other shaft. There are people that say they play stiff… not sure. They do launch on the low side but peak height and stopping power is still fine. On Trackman I got the same roll out after carry as I did with the recoil. I’m on the fence about softstepping them… a tiny bit more height wouldn’t hurt.

        The Recoil is too soft in the tip for me. Didn’t feel as solid as the MMT but the MMT with Metal Mesh Tech makes you feel like you have more control and can go after it without sacrificing accuracy. The recoils are a great shaft… a close second place finish but at 87 grams it’s also too light for me. A lot of lefts. Didn’t hit it high, just left a lot due to the profile of the shaft. The Modus 105 also is a “soft stiff” tip but the profile is good for me otherwise… it’s just with that tip my launch is 3-4 degrees higher than the MMT… I lose a lot with the modus.

        I can post Trackman screen shots for each one but why bore you guys.

        The funny thing is I really was excited about trying the p790 2 degrees weak. I was hoping for a little more spin and height ( instead of softstepping). What I found was higher launch, too much spin, not a higher peak height that I wanted. Also, loss of ball speed. It just didn’t make any sense for me.

        I would love to have an xcalibur shaft with the TM tips we use for irons… that’d be cool to try.

          There’s plenty of WRX guys saying the same thing about the MMT 105. The high swing speed guys say they’re great (MMT 125) and super stable. Xcaliber also has a shaft (brought out before the MMT) with a woven metal wrap around a graphite shaft. I don’t like the feel of it either.

          If you worked work callaway you’d have access to AXE rapid taper shafts. They are in their fitting carts.
