Oh my!!! I did NOT expect this.... I put the brand the new Callaway Ai Smoke tripple diamond driver with a $850 autoflex shaft against a senior shaft.. and well, it is safe to say I DID not expect to see the results I did, and I think you will be very surprised by the results, the club head speed, the spin rates and most of all the yardage! In this video we settle the argument of is an UPGRADED expensive rare $850 shaft any better than a senior shaft that you just take off the shelf? I put this to the test! Not only testing these shafts in a normal 2024 driver head but I place this $850 shaft in a Taylormade Qi10 MAX driver one of the most forgiving drivers of 2024! We often think that just spending more money is the way to get more consistent and hit the golf ball longer and straighter but compared to a senior driver shaft in the Callaway Ai Smoke driver tripple diamond does this rare expensive shaft go and long and is it any more consistent?
We put to the test a VRTX project x senior graphite shaft against a AUTO FLEX golf shaft a very rare version of this! What would you do would you go for the expensive shaft? Lets hit 5 golf balls with each and see on a fair test using the exact same Callaway Ai smoke triiple diamond, which golf ball goes the longest and the most consistent. I Put a $850 AUTOFLEX Shaft In The CALLAWAY AI SMOKE DRIVER VS SENIOR SHAFT...HOLY MOLY!
. I TESTED this $850 shaft VS STOCK & these are the RESULTS This $850 DRIVER SHAFT is NOT what you think...VS SENIOR SHAFT

Calloway was just at our club and I was fitted with the triple diamond with that same senior shaft. I have a swing speed of about 95 and that shaft was light and felt so smooth. I was hitting the ball 25 yards further than my Stealth and the dispersion was tighter. If you are going to spend this much money on a driver get fitted. They tried three other shafts before they got me in the right one and it is heaven.

Hi Alex.... You should try the Autoflex with a focus on the Swingweight, if you have have the stock 12gram weight in the Callaway Driver + the 2 gram weight in the back it will mess with the Autoflex performance... If it measures D4 or D3 the head is too heavy. The shaft performs better in C8 or D/0 Give it a try.... The lighter the head makes a Big Difference...

I play mine at D3 and it plays great. I tried it at D0 like suggested but my dispersion was awful. Didn't bring it to D5 like my irons but D3 added 10 yds of carry and my dispersion went back to normal.

Solid review. I remember Golf Digest doing an article with Raymond Floyd with light clubs for the time (D 0 I believe). Raymond commented he had trouble feeling where the club head was and wasn't as confident in finding the center of the club which showed in inconsistent results as did the autoflex. I am considering adding weight to my driver in an attempt to "feel" and better confidence. Again, good review and look for the your next vid.

If you are interested in this topic, elite golf took the autoflex and found a handful of shafts with the exact same flex profile. He tested it with Mr. Short game, and the other models tested the same or better than autoflex. I picked one up myself and currently play the Evenflow CB 40gram Senior flex. My driver swing speed is 116, and I have had great success with much less physical effort.

My son is 12y, hdc 3.9, 90mph… we had the chance to stay more than one our with his coach in the fitting area and play with clubs an shafts… we found the perfect fit for him… smoke tripple diamond wirh the 45g Lady big bertha shaft. He hit constantly about 200y carry. We just by accident found this combonation. It showed me the sometimes the unexpected is good. It is really a problem to find the right clubs for young junior golfer with low hdc and almost no test available… thanks for this test.

Last year my new Mizuno STX was a shorter 44.75 and moved to regular shaft. I gained speed and center face strikes more often. Carry was up 6-10 yards. It is worth a look for some. Shorter for me is easier to control. Which then leads to better and quicker swings.

I have the sf505 AF and a project x 5.0 hzrdus red. My swing speed is just under 100mph. I have yet to compare the shafts for distance and spin. But I have hit them side by side and what I notice are these.. 1. AF has tighter dispersion 2. I can get aggressive and the AF still felt smoother and found the center more often than with the hzrdus red. But on a side note. My TM mini burner is 20-30 yards Further in total. And that has a stiff RDX hzrdus shaft

You might want to try the Accra F3.0 140 M0, like they did on TXG, as another Autoflex alternative. Maybe one thing that Autoflex has done is get people to rethink the shaft stiffness that will work for them and consider softer shafts to get more kick and clubhead speed, instead of the old thinking of needing it stiffer, especially with higher SS's over 100. Even the naming of calling a soft flex a "senior" flex highlights the old thinking that softer shafts are for old folks with slow SS's. I guess the question is if you are going to game that "senior" shaft now in your bag?

Also with your swing speed, you should have went with the SF505XX. That would have put you in a better swing weight but that XX is built for people who have around 110mph swing speed and above. The SF505X is too light and whippy for you and you had the swing weight wayyyyy to high. If you get it correct it will def increase your distance and swing speed.

Often a shorter shaft can give better results as you get more centre hits. As you showed in the video the auto flex was so wippy at the club head it must have been difficult to find the centre of the club head when swinging. What shaft do you normally play - perhaps it would be a good test to play your current driver shaft against the senior flex shaft with the same club head.

If your good at golf hitting it straight then play the lightest shaft you can handle. If your are shite at golf play shafts with lower spin to minimise side spin so your left and right side spin are less so that your misses are limited. You will hit it shorter but will be in the fairway then concentrate on coping and putting rather than hitting it 300yards.

So save the $800 to play some really nice courses, #2 at Pinehurst(the only one there I havent played) and a few other courses, and get a $50 senior shaft, lol. It seems that "autoflex" is just a gimmick to get golfers money at this point. Oh, and I always feel that have have better control of the club head when I choke down a bit so the shorter shaft just probably gave you a better feel and a freer swing.

You need to test the AF against the ACCRA FX 3.0 140 M0 - as it is very comparable but more stable to get your ball/swing speed. Also someone else made a comment on swing weight I cannot remember where AF excels (could be D0 to D1 at the max) - the TSR is a better fit vs the Callaway etc.

Callaway works great - you just need to take out 4-6g of head weight. Autoflex shows up as "just OK" every time a KZfaqr just does a plug & play. That's not how it works. It requires some adjustment/proper setup. I took out head weight and went down in loft with Autoflex vs my previous Ventus Blue and picked up 15 yards of carry.

The 380s were on a 39 yrd uphill hole, and 400 on level par 5 fairway. This year, After I broke a rib last year in July, I have cut the shaft by 1 inch to be closer length to my irons. We'll see if I can get that back up to 315 avg this year.

Look up ottophlex, this is interesting. But also people misunderstand autoflex, it needs to be the lightest possible. When it first came out it was 405 and 505… then they added x and xx which just added weight, and the distance gain was lost. You have to have a good tempo, if you do you can get to ladies flex and ultra light .. The thing is controlling spin levels, so it’s a case of changing your swing and reducing the loft, check your apex on these drives and land angles, there is more to be had here
@never_say1881
@never_say1881 2 ай бұрын
you shouldn't make these comparisons without getting the proper fitting or at least the recommended settings. 1. you should use 505xx for your swing speed. 2. The head weight should be much lighter. Autoflex has been tested and fitted in other channels like TXG (now Club Champions) with a lot more detailed testing. The results were drastically different from what you are testing. TXG even built "the longest possible driver" in a live stream using AF which went crazy distances.

When calculating swing speed decrease due to one inch shorter shaft. You need to calculate the total length including length of arm. This makes the percentage much smaller. I believe every golfer has there own natural swing frequency/ speed. 8 years ago when i was 52. I was tired of spraying the ball all over. So i cut 3 inches off the butt of my driver. And still love it 8 years later. For years i have been asking youtubers to try it. None have tried it. Mini drivers... why would manufacturers shorten the shaft for more consistent drives. Then make the head smaller. Its a contradiction. Only pros can hit a mini off the fairway. My plan is to get a Ping 10k. Cut 3 inches off and to get the swing weight back. Add 25 grams of lead tape and make it a 12.5k driver. Most pros play a standard length driver . Maybe 1/4 to 1/2 longer or shorter. What makes anyone think a weekend warrior can handle a standard length shaft? On another note. I recently switched to JumboMax grips. Love them. When gripping a standard grip now. It feels totally wrong. As a test at the range. I asked a 12 year old girl to try my 8 iron with the jumbo. Her swing instantly became shorter and less floppy. All plusses.

Interesting side note here. Shafts have little to no difference on spin. This has been proven elsewhere. Club head and loft will dictate spin, shaft will dictate launch. The spin results here, low to mid 2000s, was all to do with the triple dimond head in 9 degrees.

Hi Alex. You should try a steel iron shaft cut to Driver length! It would be very interesting to see how it performs. 😁

Autoflex is a gimmick. It’s just a flexible shaft there’s no hidden technology.

While the Autoflex itself is an absurdly overpriced gimmick, the concept works. It's all about tempo, tempo, tempo with these lighter whippy shafts. They really help with tempo control and put more of the actual shaft to work. Ultimately the magic formula is: 2 flex classes lower + 20g lighter weight + sub 5.5 torque + low-spin/lower loft head = Otto Phlex. There are plenty of sub $100 and even sub $50 shafts that meet these specs and work exactly like the Autoflex as shown in this video.

AI smoke with a Mitsubishi Vanquish! Test that one and it’s less than half the price of the AutoFlex!

I hope you realize now, that the triple diamond isn’t as low spin as you thought. Try the Cobra LS Dark speed.

Long drive guys are using senior flex. The weight is more important than flex

Why would anyone spend $790 on the Autoflex and not use the manufacturer's recommended swing weight? Stock AI Smoke will be D3/D4, and if you play a longer shaft (Autoflex) it will be even higher. It's ruining the whole balance and performance of the shaft. When properly set up, the AF blows these senior shaft comparisons away.
