I went to Golfsmith today and tried the T-MB 2/3i and really liked them. But I was hitting both about the same distance, 215-220 carry. I launched the 2i 3* lower and had a peak height of 30-32yds, about 3yds lower than the 3i. What I noticed is that the club head speed and ball speed were almost exactly the same. 93mph SS, 135mph ball speed. Is that expected? It's making me think that the issue is the added weight of the 2i. Both had S300 shafts.
Question: would a lighter shaft add SS and distance to the 2i or should I stick with just the 3i? If a lighter shaft would help, what are the recommendations? I'd like something that feels and plays as close to the S300 as possible (ball flight/workability) while still giving me the extra swing speed of a lighter shaft.
Thoughts?
