recently i found an extremely good price pn some old/new dyn gold lite r400 .355 tip iron shafts. went for it, and am so far happy wirh the results.

i had been playing dyn gold s300 w/ sensicore, soft stepped once. and just felt the shaft was too boardy(hey, i’m gettin old…). put in the dyn gold.lite r400, hard stepped once, and am very happy. i left the s300 in the 9&pw because they were so accurate.

in some ways, this is a very poor man’s awt set. i like the r400 enough to where i have put the 4 iron back in the bag.

what i really like about the dg lite is that the tip is still stout enough to allow you to really go at the ball if you need to. no fear of the shaft collapsing at impact. yet, it plays lighter and easier. maybe a yard or two longer. maybe a yard or two higher, but no drastic change in trajectory.

does anybody have any real information about how the dg lite compares to the project x lz ? if so, please share. the lz was the shaft i was really eying, but i got these at fraction of the price. thanks, steve.

If you look at the profiles of the shafts we have in our database, the LZ looks much firmer from the but end to the tip end. That being said, the early “Lite” shafts, and the Dynamic Gold Lite goes way back, had a really firm feel. The lightweight alloys used simply made it feel and play stiffer than the numbers indicated. At least that is our experience and opinion. The LZ is the Project X with a slight variation in the mid section to take it from a low trajectory shaft to the mid trajectory shaft. I think you would find the feel of the two completely different, but the performance cold still be good for both. You should test the LZ and see how it compares. Our numbers and experience would indicate it will feel different for sure, but you would have to be the judge on how it performs comparatively to the DG Lite.

Hope this helps.
