sdandrea1 . I might only be arguing your implication that graphite is not a lot less painful than steel.
Read me again. I did say, 2 times, given the same weights. Yes, lighter graphite is going to be better than heavy steel, but if the weights are the same, imo it should be much the same. The force of the weight is what is pulling on those tendons and muscles.
I'm probably still not making myself understood. 😩😄
A lot of people go to graphite in irons thinking it will help with physical problems, but does it, when they go with same weight as they used in steel????
I probably should not weigh in in these discussions any longer. I don't have the problems. I have used both graphite and steel, heavy & light, for many years in irons. I can tell the difference from a performance standpoint, but not from any pain relief standpoint. I have had harsh feeling graphite and steel shafts. And, I've had soft ones, sometimes too soft, esp. in graphite.
Get forged heads. Take away some of that sting when hitting the ball off center. 👍 Like butta!
