Shaft Change? WATCH THIS FIRST!
A New Year and New product is imminent BE THE BOSS OF YOUR OWN GOLF GAME and only make changes that are calculated and confirmed by your launch monitor.
When you adjust your driver set up, watch each ball flight to the end.The first bounce can tell you a lot based on descent angle and the spin rate data on the ball.
Shafts are often misconceived, the feel can impact how you deliver the golf club which will have a bearing on the optimum flight.
This KBS Proto is a new part that could hit the market in 2024 be sure to keep an eye on following website for more details:

Let’s absolutely see if we can swing one to the fences at the end of the day I think that’s it that’s the end of the video I don’t know if I could even beat that get going boom flew into the fence that is how you start a Tor truck Tuesday what
Was that in the driver a brand new golf shaft that I’ve been testing I swear I will not beat that 2700 at an 11° launch that basically means full send and you can see the Apex right down our Street Lamp that I aim for but I bring you this
With caution right there is my ACA tz6 that I have been using since Moses was a small boy with no reason to change so why have you dived into this is it purely because it says tour only on it and you got sucked into that no come on
Guys give me more credit than that I have been around these tour trucks forever I simply know when something is good and I need to try it what is this golf shaft well it’s not even got a name yet it’s a KBS prototype this is Cat 5
The way they do their stuff cat five cat 6 they base it on speed the higher the cat the more speed you have but it has a higher modulus tip section what what does that mean a higher modulus tip section let me tell you a little bit about graphite shafts when it comes
Through to graphite and it comes through to changing it there are flags and wraps that they can put on at certain directions to change so the tip section having that higher modulus which is graphite fiber in relation to resin in relation to glue by having it stiffer here it’s designed for quicker swing
Speeds so if I hammer one like that and give you the 115 Club speed this puppy’s going to stay with me so all jokes aside that’s why I started this video on the launch monitor down there ripping one as hard as I could to show you that it
Stays with you if you are going to make a shaft change which I don’t press you to do like I said I’ve been in that for a long time if you’re going to make a change you want to make sure that the swing weight is where it needs to be but
It’s your balance point you’ve got a 14in fulcrum point and it’s how the golf club balances to the shaft if you get it wrong if you go putting your mate shaft into your driver it feels Pony for the pure reason that you don’t have the
Swing weight where it needs to be so if you get the swing weight right then you’re in a room and a place where you can work on getting the club to be right but if you don’t get it in two or three shots the balance is not where it needs
To be for you I had to make the head weight heavier in this driver in order to cope for the swing weight that it should be at yeah we know it’s great on a full rip giv us 310 out of that what about if I want to hit a smoother one or
A bit of shape so here we go little Fade up the left and just peels off the left I mean that again is exactly what I want that Golf Club to do it’s hit the deck it’s spun at 2900 that’s the spin rate I once cuz it was squeezed it’s given me a
Lower launch it’s given me a path of minus 4 and a tack of down two again I’ve got a previous video that’ll explain full swing kit launch monitor detail so check that out but when the club is doing what you want it to do then I don’t see any reason why you
Shouldn’t check it out I saw this shaft being used in a video that I fit someone for and that is where honestly it caught my eye I like Graphics that are cylindrical it has nothing to do with the design but if I then can put my loft
Sleeve in whatever position I want I’m not getting offended by the graphics from there test your slam shot of course test your cuty one if that’s the one you like to play when you go to under pressure and just work through the numbers making sure that if it’s a toe
Miss or a heal miss it gives you the spin rates that you want always try and have a reason for the shot you’re trying to hit providing the spin rates are where you want them then you should know that you’re in a decent club for you little heel strike good flight drifted
Off to the right done exactly what I want again Club stayed in there spin rate on that little cut only at 27 so again it’s where I want it let’s see if I can just turn one over just to end this video exactly how it should be come
On truer show us what you got little drawer down our tour aim there you go flat over the top draw gave me what I wanted hugging that left side giving me the numbers that I want and spun at 2300 so it was enough albe it wasn’t the purest of hits but you can
Sense for the video that it’s doing exactly what I want it to do here totaling at 280 so there’s your call out when you go testing driver shafts learn a bit about the shaft that you’re getting for me it’s the modulus the tip section being a bit stiffer we
Understand the graphite has gone in certain directions and made up of a different resin to graphic fiber ratio graphite fiber ratio that then gives you that but on the same note it becomes something that after a few shots if it can straight compare to your gamer then
It’s worth standing there and hitting a few more I’m going to stay here and do just that to finish my practice session if you like what you’re seeing hit that notification hit that subscribe until next tour truck Tuesday there’s a link down below to check out KBS golf shafts
This is one that’s caught my eye I absolutely love it it’s called the Prototype right now who knows what they’ll bring it out as in the future but keep your eyes peeled it’s one to check out

Well done trottie, so interesting. I had the same thing in my TM SIM. Started off with fujikura stiff shaft. Off memory think it had pro spec on the shaft, but it was a 60g. Hated it, fade after fade after fade. Back injury later wanted something a bit more friendly. I thought about trial and error. Bought a SK Fiber Hypersonic 60g stiff counter balanced shaft. Friendlier bend point. No more fades, straight and can get a draw sometimes. My point is if it ain't broke no need to fix it in your case but in mine, necessity dictated change and i got lucky. For £40 including the adapter and some pony grip that I cut off and changed when I received it , my driving has been transformed. Irons and putting still crap but hey ho!
Thanks for this. I’ll be on the lookout for one when it becomes available.
I have found after years of tinkering that my swing responds well to SW above D4. I have an Autoflex shaft and went to Paradym this past season. Took an extra sliding weight in the track to get it to D4.5. Went from mediocre to great in an instant.
What swing weight do you recommend for driver?
Grant lol
Since Moses was a small boy 😂
Best in the biz ! The Trott
Well done Chris happy Xmas 😊
Are you an ambassador for KBS?
My wife wishes i had a higher modulous tip section!
would love to see a review of the Crank driver Bryson uses
That was no draw more like a pull
Why are you showing us a shaft we can’t even get?
You mentioned swing weight and that seems to be the new focus right now and something that I think a lot of people overlook. it really influences how the club feels. I had to go to a heavier swinging weight as well because of having higher swing speed I couldn’t get the feel that I was looking for until I made the switch changing the shaft didn’t really matter as much.
Can someone tell me what app he is using that allows you to have your phone on the ground?
Trotster 😂😂
How do you know what the proper swing weight should be?
