Um, and then the low side is where we’re getting a little bit more of the low launch and the high spin from. So, it’s a combination of what we’re seeing right there. I would look at changing things up by number one, I’m going to add a heavier and stiffer shaft because I do think we’d want to have a little bit more weight for your club head speed.
