I still kind of wanna see what would happen if you cut one to 44.5
@@steveallen648 LOL this is a good joke ur funny steve
i would like to see you guys bring the shaft to the course and if you actually gain some strokes off the tee at your home course ith it
You can contact allthatgolfkorea@gmail.com for inquiry 🧐
Bryson DeChambeau is already cranking it 360+ yards with current shaft tech.
How far do you thing he could drive a golf ball using this shaft in his length?
“I know I’m gonna peak at some point, I just don’t want to do it this early”
I’ll take ‘Things you might say in either the bedroom or a club fitting’ for $500 please, Alex. 😂
I live for this
"Low in the face". Hits it 349
"Made my glove fall off ... I swung out of my glove!"
@@thatguymark8381 That is the first time I ever heard that remark.
just commented the same thing before I saw yours. lol.
Can't believe how much quality this channel has. Feels like a robbery to watch this free.
These guys are literally the o my reason I get on TH-cam. Fantastic
Then don't! Become a member :)
🤫🤫
I know a few older guys that have enough money to buy anything but youth, club head speed and ball speed. When I show them this and your last video post of this golf shaft shaft I can't wait to see the gleam in their eyes come back. Yeah they are going to love this, please get a senior player into the lab that still has a single digit handicap, so we can see what this shaft can do for him. Great video guys.
I think I am joining the queue :-)
I would be the perfect guy for this. 53 years old, 225 to 235 carry with driver. 0 to +2 index when healthy. Hit my buddy's the other day and fell in love with the shaft.
@@davidober1199 I'm still 69 and 70 this summer, down to 200+ carry of the driver with some roll out, total 220 yards tops last year. I have 2020 Cobra SpeedZone Extreme head the Autoflex would look very nice in. Maybe Santa will come this summer early.
@@davidober1199 I'm going to add two links from a guy who has purchased two Autoflex shafts, one link tells two ways to buy it, the other link is his actual testing of his Autoflex shaft a PGA testing facility, so.
th-cam.com/video/IhYaETejGBg/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/TWIsT6eZZ1Y/w-d-xo.html
Both TH-cam links are very interesting..
Need to see this shaft hit by someone who's not a monster like Matty. Someone who normally hits it between 230-260
Formal request: course vlog, you two strapping young lads with autoflex shats in the drivers, full send off every tee. Does the Bryson, bomb and gouge approach really work. Go low or take up tennis.
You gotta try this shaft at 48”
I’d love to see how much distance you can get out of it.
I just did my research in Korea and found out that these shafts already has 7 years of presence with good recognition from amateurs and pros. Although the brand seems new, female pros such as Ji Hye Shin, Jenny Shin and Eun Hee Ji already won their LPGA tours with these shafts proving that it works at all stages. Autoflex is the descending models from previous Autopower. Look forward on your next review Ian and Matt!
I’d like to see this auto flex with a mid handicapper, see how consistent or inconsistent this shaft helps this kind of player
i hate you guys so much for making me super interested in a $700 shaft LMAO.
How do you even get your hands on one?
@@steveblee456 no clue lmao but if there's a will there's a way
@@steveblee456 good question. I'm curious too
Book a fitting with TXG!
I know how
I would love to see a more "average" golfer get fitted in this. Would be interesting
Agree. Idk why they can't do something like that. I'm sure there will be no shortage of volunteers. They did one with the average swing speed with Matt swinging slower - but that is hardly representative of the avergare golfer. Matty is a beast - when in full swing - and an absolute robot when he slows it down.
Matty boo was walking out of those shots like Sammy Sosa banging home runs.
Zack Newman awesome 1998 reference...
i love how as a fitter when ian said 'let's try another head' and I told myself 'try a sim head set to higher with the CG moved to the toe to match toe impacts and try to eliminate the right side' and ian does just that... love it
I watched Lee Trevino at 82 years of age use it today. Obviously he is a professional that knows how to put the club on the back of the ball. He hit it amazing with incredible distance.
On the back of these videos I have bought one. Have hit it a couple of times on the course and range so far. Seems to work. Don't have any stats yet but managed to hit some really long (for me) drives into a strong wind of around 35-40 kph. This surprised me as I thought it might spin up too much into the wind. Look forward to getting it onto trackman to substantiate any differences. I'm 60 years old and s/s with driver is pretty much on 100mph. Driver is a 9* Mavrik Sub Z set at 8* and previous shaft was Fujikura green Pro 65gms. Oh, I bought the new shaft in the SF5 strength.
What was the price if you don’t mind me asking
@@nacksr I'm in Australia. It was priced in Korean currency which worked out to $800USD but I got killed converting from AUD. Then there was freight and paying for it to be setup, sleeved and gripped etc...It's a crazy purchase but I suppose if you work it out to each time you use it and divide that by a small dollar figure, then so long as it does what they say, you are ok to pay e.g. $2 per drive if it's 10-15 yards longer and more often on the fairway. So far, so good. :) ps...it turned up in under half a week so that was something to commend.
@@333pg333 I would be very interested in any of your numbers after using this shaft. 800 usd is pretty crazy in a sense but like you said if it works and you break it down per drive it makes sense. I appreciate your response hopefully you can post some number if you do please tag me if you can!! Thanks again!! Good luck!!
@@nacksr Happy to do so. I just need to get to a Trackman. I'll take my old shaft (Fujikura Pro Green stiff) for comparison. I'll reply to you when I get this done. Not quite sure when this will happen. One thing I've noticed is the sound off the clubface seems a little different which seems odd. I 'think' it is because my swing speed is up and the ball is just coming off faster/louder. Not a bad thing of course. Hope to substantiate that soon!
@@333pg333 well I went to my local golf shop today and messed with a few shafts and talked about the autoflex, the guys at the shop seemed not so impressed lol but on the other hand they haven’t seen any reviews or have done any research. Back to the shafts I’ve noticed A) my shaft is great for my swing and B) all this time I was trying to swing like Matty boy at txg lol which isn’t gonna happen. If this all goes down at a group discounted price I might pull the trigger. But I’m still highly interested in your numbers comparison. Hopefully hear from you soon!! And thanks again stay well and stay safe my friend!!
When you mentioned it being a long drive club, it made me think how I would love to see you guys have Kyle Berkshire on the channel (when travel restrictions allow) whether for an AutoFlex Round 3 or a full bag fitting. The guy is putting out great content on improving his game, plus I'd just love to see what you guys can produce with someone with his skill set.
He would break the simulator haha ball straight through the screen. Would love to see him on though
He's sponsored by Callaway already though, I think.
@@aaron_b. True, but they've had videos of fittings in the past where they only fit to one brand. The two I can remember were Mizuno fittings, but I imagine they could do a Callaway fitting for Kyle.
Sorry to burst your bubble but Kyle Berkshire is not the longest driver on this planet it's Joe Miller from London England he carries 50% of his drives over 400 yards he has the fastest swing speed ever recorded and long drive at 157 miles an hour look up Joe Miller you'll see the second best long driver ever behind Jason zuback Who won six World Championships
@@ricktwist1935 I think he just got one upped 🥴
That shaft is unfreakinbelievable. The amount of bend and yet, incredible dispersion. Speechless.
This is the first new golf equipment news that I've been actually excited about in a long long time.
I think this is will amount to a watershed technology development.
Thank you gents for bringing us this content.
Game changer. OMG!!!! I think I will have to pick one up one of these. Swing harder and not lose control or spray shots. What happens when the Tour boys gets a hold of this shaft. What happens when Bryson gets this bad boy at 48 inches? 210+ ball speeds easy.
He just posted a IG of him with a 211 ball speed and 400+ yard carry. Not sure if he's using the Autoflex though.
I ain’t the sharpest tool in the shed ... or the channel but this isn’t over by any means bring on Rockin Ronnie! 👍
That much distance and that accuracy - incredible. Very cool to see the adjustments that were made and the end results through Matt's swing! So cool!
Unbelievable shaft....Matt is hitting that ball... awesome.
This is an incredible display of technology, combined with fitting & skill by these two
I’m buying one! This is like auto tune for golf. Swing as hard as you can and it bombs straight on the line! Love this video! I’m sure many customers will be asking for this shaft if it makes it on the wall!
Matt isn't this the best efficiency you've ever had during a driver test, I don't remember seeing 1.44 - I could be wrong? That is nuts how efficient and straight it goes.
Time to bring in a 10 handicap to get fit for one of these. I'll go ahead and openly volunteer my services.
I live in Korea and I am about 20 handicapper.
I tried this shaft (SF505X) once, and it felt really good. I normally hit 220 yards with my driver but with this shaft I hit around 240~250 without too much effort.
But I didn't buy this, because I was not sure then if the price I had to pay for this is really worth it...
Which is your driver swing speed ?
Ian, you need to pop one of these on the SIM and see how it does! Edit.. I should have just kept watching for 20 more secs before commenting lol.
I was admittedly very skeptical of this shaft...now I want it lol. Thanks for the video guys!
Booooyyyyyzzzzz take it out on the course before season end plzzzzzzz!!! 🚨🚨💗💗💗
Wow!! What a shaft and what a performance by Matt. It would be interesting to see how the shaft works for slower swing speeds. Excellent video, as usual. Thanks.
Ian. You need to get this shaft in the hands of Pro golfer Bryson. Or at least inform him of this shaft. Or maybe even get him to do a fitting with you. Love to see him game this shaft. Joe from California. 40 minutes away from Clovis, where Bryson is from. 😁
The company who sent TXG the shaft sent Bryson an email. As of yesterday they haven’t heard back from him.
Jae Young Park Hopefully Bryson will give this shaft a chance. Looks like a game changer. 😁
The company that produces the shaft needs to pay Bryson first before he uses it.
I had to watch this twice to believe what I was seeing . Sooooooo Long yet SO straight great video guys thank you
Love it. Can't wait to get back to Canada and get in for a fit, promise my expectations will be a little lower. Matty is a beast!
This is fitting at its finest.
Can’t wait for Monday chat, I’d say if TXG members put a bulk order in for a bunch of these we’d get a good deal ;)
Everyone from here straight onto eBay searching ‘Autoflex Shaft’ 😂
Love seeing the process of changing the heads, adjusting loft, weight locations etc. Awesome content!
That shaft is full of som wizard magic! Matty needs to put that SIM combo in the bag ASAP and film some reactions from some unsuspecting golfers!
I seriously need one in the bag.. TXG please get somes... Online fitting here I come. And I don’t need it just want it 😭😭😭
The company is in the process of building an English website early August. For more info, see detailed article on GolfWRX.com
Wow, great video.
This shaft is really something.
Once fitted by an expert fitter it’s long, fast and straight.
What’s not to like. 🤷🏻♂️
I wonder how this would go with Ian or the average 10- 15 handicap.
The golfing world must be watching this shaft with bewilderment. This could be a game changer if it were to work in the hands of an average player.
Great work guys. 👍👏🏻👏🏻
I just got my AutoFlex shaft. I got just the X as I’m nowhere near Matt but still can swing around 112-115 when needed. Can’t wait to play now so I can see if there is any difference in distance from my normal spots I hit into on my home course.
“This was a lot of fun!” Couldn’t agree more, Marty boy!
That was a really good one gentlemen!
YES!! I want to see the starting at 90/95MPH player!! :)
Put this shaft in the hands of big Al!
Nice vid, keep up the good work.
It really goes to show how important keeping that spin in a playable range is. 1,500 is fun and everything until it starts sneaking into the tow just a little bit. That whole setup really became ridiculous when you had it 2,000-2,300. Awesome stuff guys!
Absolutely insane! Need a course vlog with that in the bag
Goosebumps when he buttoned that 372.
Holy crap.
Matt is half robot. Unreal. So awesome. Great video guys.
Most of us Long Drive guys have switched over to a softer shaft in the 220 - 240 cpm range. Much higher ball speeds with minimal effort. Very counter intuitive to what people think long drive competitors would use.
Great to hear Mitch.
I am currently using autoflex 405...and love it..
I don’t think I’ve ever seen Matt have quite as much fun smashing drives! 😂 And that dispersion?! Ridiculous!
I ordered an sf505 in Rainbow late Tuesday night which was probably Wednesday for them. It was just delivered before noon on Friday. Looks cool and excited to start fitting a head to it!
what head did you pick and what are the results? Is it worth it?
I have a TM sim on it. Using jumbo max lite grip with tour lock weight to get swing weight to D1. Results are fantastic. Dispersion is cut in half and I only have to make what feels like a 3/4 swing to keep my normal swing speed of 105mph. If I make a full swing then it’s closer to 110mph. The shaft seems to keep you from overcooking it left or right. The only down side is hitting precision hard cuts and draws is more difficult because of this. I am beyond happy
@@ryanmichael1401 Wow! This was type of feedback I was looking for as I have a similar 105 MPH SS. What length did you make it?
I didn’t cut it down so it’s playing at 46” or 46.5” I believe. When my tour fitter gets back from AZ in April then we are going to really dial it it and possibly take it down to 45” or 45.5”. Although hitting the longer length hasn’t been an issue
Mattie’s 360 yard fairway finder! Different game! 😳🤘🏼
Awesome video guys. All I could do is sit here and giggle at Matty getting pumped up. 👍👍
If you need a mid handy capper to give that shaft a go,I’m game. Ian you fit me for my Rogue SZ a few years ago and it was an awesome experience.
Great vlog boys! Loved seeing Matty at full tilt. What about Ian having a bash on the old pink shaft! 😉🤣😂
What a great exhibition and insight into the art of fitting and the swing wasn’t to shabby either.Autoflex what sorcery is this 😳
New testing results show more exciting 🧐 Can’t wait to see what’s coming next and especially testing an average golfers 🏌️♂️. I can definitely will get an Autoflex fitted for longer and straighter shots even it’s $800 🤣
Come home and get that magic shaft 😆 its cost around 700$ but flight ticket not included 🙈
Deadpool I love to buddy 🤣 but 2 weeks quarantines gives me a second thought 🧐 Happy Chuseok to you and your family 😊
I look forward to testing this when i come for a fit off you guys
Goodness that is some speed!! 340yd carry is silly 😂
Awesome new setup - hope to be able to visit once the travel restrictions are lifted!
how on earth has Matt not snuck this into his bag?!
lol they get paid by auto flex a new sucker is born every day
Wooooo crazy new camera angle in new location...
love the new insignia!
So freaking impressive.
I like the comments made around the 18 minute mark, where he says they may test it with a player who swings 90 to 95 mph, trying to get them up over 100 mph.
I often felt that I was in between a Regular and a Stiff flex. I'd like to see what this shaft can do for people who can't swing like Matt in the video.
As a 90 to 95 swing speed guy, I am happy to travel to a Canada and offer myself as a tester 😁🤣🏌🏽♂️
Such a cool video, loved it!
You guys are having way to much fun with this!! Super cool, very interested in trying this concept out. Best golf channel on YT.
This crazy shaft is really, really fascinating. I am dying to know how this thing works and how it promotes so much strike consistency with that kind of flex.
On average each drive was about 100 yards further than me... Such a joy to watch, but so depressing at the same time 😃...😕
Cheers 🍻
Awesome! Just fit Matti for a chipper putter and he will just need this driver and a chipper putter for those "short" 370yd par4s and par 3s.👍👍💪💪
Patiently waiting for these to arrive at fitters in Florida.
Yes! Another vote here for 90-95mph player fitting
I cant get enough of these Freaky Pinky segments. I really would love to see what its like if you hit this thing easy, curious if this thing solves a specific issue, that is some of the super stiff shafts, you always have to go 110%. Cant wait for round 3 and TSI.
Matt needs to be playing that setup....absolutely insane!!
I want to try this shaft!
This vid was fun to watch. Great hits.
How ? Just how can I get one haha. So good. 👌💪
Awesome. Would definitely love to see a mid to high handicapper take some swings with it!
Ive ordered the SF505X. It arrives tomorrow Tuesday 27th. I will hit it at the range and play with it this week and let you guys know what its like for an average 10 HDC player.
It’s arrived in about 4 days (slight delay via China for FedEx) - beautiful 🤣. I have it now installed for my normal Mavrik - will play a round with it tomorrow . Turned out to be just a fraction under 46” at D1.5. The recommend D1~2. Let’s see tomorrow on the course 👍.. and I will take it to the simulator next week.
Probably no-one reading this by now ... but I had the autoflex SF505X in my 9* normal Mavrik head (+1 - 10*) today on course for 9 holes and had astounding results. I had struggled with it at the range, but on the course it just worked... I hit 7 drives for 6 fairways average 280 (up from normal 260) with long 300 and shorter 260. Like for TXG, even more impressive than the length increase, was the arrow straight fairway finders. I cant explain it ... it is 46” (1/2” longer than my normal S shaft) with sw D1.5.. but just like Matt, it wiggles like a fishing Rod when you wave it before the swing. Swing speed feels considerably up ... but I wont be sure until I go to the simulator later this week! Anyway, for those thinking about it I also now recommend jumping in - but check the swing speed recommendations carefully. The website English speaking contact James is great!
these videos are great. i always. wanted to talk about club/swing science.
would be great to chat with someone
Ha Matt might just ‘borrow’ that club from your studio 😉
Well, this shafts have already been used in LPGA for years by some South Korean players. So, I guess amateurs with moderate swing speed, like 95 miles, also can get helped.
@Just bored l don't know how much improve they made in Autoflex line. But both shafts are made by the same co, Dumina. The company president said they tried thousands of times and cleaned up their specs in three, which are enough to cover all different swing. Anyway, it is very interesting to see a player with this shaft is actually on top of today's LPGA tour - Shoprite - leaderbord.
You guys make golf look to easy! Atleast in the bay.
Matty hits it 345: “that was fun.” 🤣 Yeah I bet, dude. You guys are gonna sell A LOT of those shafts!
That was totally awesome. The biggest question is @matt - will you out this shaft in the best driver competition next year? I would spend the money on the shaft only if I was fitted correctly. Too much money just to buy.
Hilarious part was when Matt in all seriousness was disappointed with a straight 348 yard drive. 🤣
Hurts my back just watching Matt swing like that . Lol. This is crazy stuff.
You have to take this build out on the golf course surely as the next test and video!
Matty prepping like Bryson for Augusta 🤣👏🏻
I've never seen anyone who can hit shot after shot as consistently as "Matty Boy". And he can hit millimeters towards the toe, heal, crown and sole on demand. Outrageous. I'll never be able to do that, but where do I get the shaft?
Weird Science with Dr Ian. More please!
Very interesting jump in technology...
You should test it with Crossfield ;-)
Shafts do (not) matter!
Just curious, who are the 5 people who didn't like this video ? If you're a golfer, do you not want more distance and want to hit it straighter ? Maybe it's the price but in my mind, you can keep buying driver after driver every 1 to 2 years at $500 to $700 a pop and hope you've found the holy grail of drivers, which you won't, or maybe just maybe get fitted for this shaft at $700 that gives you what we all want, distance and accuracy . hmmmmmm
This is unreal. I want one now! 😂
Just awesome.
2:12 that actually looked pretty good...until it didn't :D
great job gents! love the videos!!
Very interesting results here Matty and Ian!! I thought it might be worth a try, so I went on the AutoFlex website, and it looks like Consumer price is: 950,000 SK won.....or $816.07 USD / $1,084.29 Canadian Ouch!!!
This shaft really catches my attention so awesome in the tech y'all can come up with
Many Thanks for providing the website and Email address to order the shaft. Ordered on Monday. Should arrive next week.
I think the magic material is "Graphene" with maybe some Kevlar for stability?
